The Crooked Cat Course is one of two 18-hole regulation courses at the Orange County National Golf Center and Lodge. The facility is also home to a nine-hole executive course. The Crooked Cat Course is a challenge with dramatic elevation changes and rolling fairways that are framed with mounding. The golf course has a links-style design with large, contoured greens and wide landing areas. Water hazards and several bunkers come into play throughout. There are also trees and native heather present on the course for a naturally beautiful atmosphere. Orange County National's Crooked Cat Course is favored among low handicappers due to its length and difficulty.

Wonderful shape of fairways and greens. They play professional tournaments here like the Korn Ferry. Beautiful smooth greens and challenging layout. I would highly recommend this course.

Always a treat for great golf experience

Always love playing OCN. Crooked Cat was in fine shape even though the greens had been recently punched. Although they looked bumpy the rolled well and I only had 26 putts. The ball sat up nicely in the fairway. Some of the rough was a bit long but hey it’s the rough. The cart attendants and the starter were exceptionally friendly. Look forward to playing this fine layout again,

Local Favorite

OCN is always a good day out. Course is in good shape - greens not at their greatest, summer maintenance n all. Fairways are overall good, we noticed some tough grass roots growing in some. 2nd round here in as many weeks and both times the golf cart was struggling for power. Absolutely lucked out for a Friday with not a soul in sight ahead of us. 2-ball finished in 3:20!

One of the best in the area

You will be hard-pressed to find a nicer course in the Orlando area, especially in this condition and for the price. Worth every penny, and plenty of amenities beyond the course.

Best Value in Orlando

Every time I go to Orange County National, I am impressed. CC is not as challenging as Panther Lake but is still a nice course with enough tough holes for everyone. I am always impressed by the staff. Excellent Pro shop lady who is quick efficient and very pleasant. The starter Bill was also very friendly and efficient. Everyone was perfect.

Pace of play

The course rangers need to start doing there job and keep play moving . My round of golf was just under 5 hrs. in 93 degree heat. I also believe the pro shop over books tee times and bunches golfers to close together.

I like playing the course but won't be playing it much more if they do not speed up the pace of play.

Birthday golf

Played a round with 2 friends on my birthday. The course was great and will definitely play again soon. The course was in good to excellent shape. Being in the old men category, we played from the Tan tee boxes and enjoyed our selves more than moving back to a harder tee location. The course is still tough no matter which box you play from!!
