Crooked Cat at Orange County National

Even in a light rain course played true. Any trip to Orlando would not be complete without playing one of these tracks.

Crooked Cat at Orange County National was awesome. My buddies and I booked it two days out on a Hot Deal for $60 and we felt like it was a steal of a deal. Tee boxes were all in solid condition, fairways were great and the green rolled true despite a bit of an issue with others not cleaning up their ball marks. Pace of play was fantastic for us as a foursome until we ran into a slower group on the back that we got held up behind for a while, but if it was any ordinary group in front of us, there never would have been an issue. One thing to take note of this course, this course may seem a bit easier due to the nature of it being a links course, but was by no means an easy course. It plays pretty long, if you miss the fairways you are in for some trouble, and some of these greens are a force to be reckoned with. I wouldn't say it was a hard course by any means, but it definitely can present some challenges.

Side note: the practice facilities are massive and absolutely amazing for the course being public.

We wished the cart girl had showed up a bit earlier in our round, as we didn't run into her until we reached the 9th hole. Also we were a bit bummed by the clubhouse being closed at 6 as we wanted to eat dinner there before heading home.

All in all, we had a fantastic experience and will for sure be back again!

Normally one of my favourite courses in the area. I brought out 3 friends who had never played the course & they hated it due to slow play. We had to call the clubhouse on the # 7 tee cuz we had been out on the course for over 2 hours. The guys had rental clubs & were playing the Orange tees which were way too long for them. Marshall showed up but didn't change anything. Not too much fun for us or the guys behind us. We were tortured for 5 3/4 hours!!! Probably not going back.

Beautiful meticulous course that is both a challenge and fun. Will play every time I come here in future, greens were fast but excellent condition.

I play this course 2-3 times a year. Everytime I’ve played here it’s fantastic. The course was immaculate the greens were both receptive and fast. Top notch place that I look forward to playing again and again.

I previously played Panther Lake and enjoyed that experience so I wanted to play Crooked Cat to see if I would enjoy it as much and I did. The course was in good shape and the layout was interesting. This course could play as easy or difficult as you would like based on tees chosen. I would definitely play here again.

Booked a tt on Golf Now, arrived to starter 10 min before tt told me on was on tee sheet for 1 spot later, I tried to show him my confirm email and he was rude, telling me I needed to go back to pro shop, I.stead of arguing said ill just wait 1 more spot. Then when are turn came up a group of two came to starter with that time. Pro shop guy came down and he said one of them booked as single at my tt and the other at the time after. Pro shop guy then decided to send the group of 2 ahead of me, now I'm 2 spots behind, and 20 min last my booked tt. I asked to be taken care of for this and they didn't care, Then after our group of 3 teed off they sent out a group of 2 after us. Totally incompetent and unprofessional golf staff, will never play here again

We were notified 2 days before our tee times, that the course was in fantastic condition, but still not ready for carts to be driven on the fairways, due to over seeding. We appreciated the heads up, and allotted ourselves more time to play so we could get the round in before dark. The staff was exceptional and very friendly. We will always return to play this course during our golf trips in the future.

Cheers to this first class facility!

This is a well designed course but with cart path only and ridiculously slow pace the experience was not enjoyable.

Just don't play when cart path only. Brutal. Otherwise great course and facility.

We began our round at 10:20 a.m., teeing off on the first hole. As we approached the second hole, the fairway was being mowed, and the tee boxes were still being tended to. Despite our arrival, the staff member did not pause his work, so we waited for him to finish before proceeding. By the third hole, he continued mowing nearby and left his engine running during our tee-off.

Throughout the first nine holes, we encountered the lawn maintenance team on every hole, which detracted from our experience. After finishing the round, we visited the pro shop to share our concerns, but the staff seemed unresponsive. We did not receive any offer of a complimentary refreshment or gesture of goodwill; instead, we felt that our concerns were dismissed in favor of routine business operations.

We appreciate your attention to this feedback, as it’s important to us—and likely to other guests—that the golf experience is enjoyable and minimally disrupted. Thank you for considering our comments.

Very wet forcing a par 5 to a or 3. Cart path on a few holes.

Everything was great from the cart guys to the starter as well as the course. It was cart path only but we got a mail a couple of days before giving us the chance to change if we wanted .

Greens were in great shape.
