Rating 74.8

Las Colinas is one of two championship golf courses at Mission Inn Resort. It is less challenging than the other course, El Campeon, but both provide enjoyable and unique rounds. Las Colinas sprawls across gently rolling hills with elevation changes that are less startling than those found throughout the older El Campeon course. Twisted oak hammocks and a sprinkling of lush pines accent Las Colinas. The golf course has an inland links layout that boasts wide-open, forgiving fairways and large, receptive greens. There is an interesting variety of risk/reward opportunities as well as a few forced carries. The course has many player-friendly features but its classic architecture does call for a fair amount of accuracy, especially on its signature hole, the par-5 12th. Nicknamed "Alligator Alley," this 493-yard hole features a winding, tree-lined fairway.

Final Vacation Round

We ended our vacation with a round at Las Colinas. Gentleman at bag drop was enthusiastic and efficient. Starter was engaged and got us off early. Weather was outstanding, mid sixties and sunny with light breeze. Course in pretty good first day of spring shape. Green #7 not so good, with outside rim grassless. Bunkers were full and raked. We enjoyed the drive between holes which are lined with trees, wetlands and beautiful greenery. Played a nice leisurely 4:20 pace, with no pushing or being pushed. Got the senior rate of $62 through course website which was reasonable. Be back next year.

Not Worth Playing as Poor Conditions

Mission Inn used to be one of my favorite local courses due to its outstanding course conditions, but unfortunately owing to change in course ownership Las Colinas is NOT WORTH PLAYING. Last month I sent a foursome of guests there and they were extremely disappointed in the decline since it has been an annual event for several years. Another group of golfing friends played an outing there and reported the same thing. Too bad this classic Florida golf course is being neglected.

First time

What a great experience, from the staff to the end of the round it was a great experience. I have played the other course there many times and thought it would be a great idea to play the other course. Its was fun and was in great shape. Just a overall great experience.

Excellent course…but hole 7 needs major work

Loved the difficulty. Condition, layout, the property, overall just a great time…but hole 7 needs major work. Fairway needs “ground under repair” markings in the landing zone, and the green left much to be desired. Other than that, had a great time. Look forward to playing it again in the future

Another fun day at Mission Inn.

Las Colinas is in fine shape and very challenging. I always enjoy playing both courses at Mission Inn. They are always in great shape and the entire crew there is very nice.
