Mission Inn Resort & Club - El Campeon Course

Staff is average- starter was great- pro shop group especially check in guy is rude and dismissive. I get it large high school tournament going on however, here’s a great opportunity to shine and guy at front desk is killing it. Groups in town for the week for this event and one guy is single handedly advertising why tracks like Juliette Falls, Grand Cypress, and even Disney are better bets for your golf $. Course is good conditions touch, just had two hurricanes. But what sets this place apart is the creep behind the desk. Would say it was an isolated instance but others have dealt with Mr. Fun as well this AM and have the same outcome. Way to go!!!! Doubt we will be back once this event is over. .

The greens were great, fairways were as well, the only issue the quantity and size of divots left by the PGA field. It is a great layout, it gets too pricy too soon though, but the course,the staff ( other than group sales) and the resort are fabulous.

Course is in terrific shape. Very friendly staff! Greens are top notch. I played in around 3 hours. I really like El Campeon but this is worth a visit. Like El Campeon, the front 9 does not loop back to the clubhouse. You go from 9th green to 10 the tee. A bit unusual. Only negative at Las Colinas is the excessive distance between tees and greens. Maybe that is why they have very fast carts!

It is such a great course layout but it isn't being managed effectively. Eight minute spacing on tee times lead to a 20 minute delay teeing off followed by a 5 hour round with not a Ranger in sight enforcing pace of play. Greens had some damage from hydraulic fluid but were really fast and rolled well in spite of the damage. The tee boxes were not so good and lots of bare spots. It truly is a great property but could use a few adjustments to make it an enjoyable experiences.

The course was in great condition today, some of the tee boxes need a little help, but the grounds crew is working on that. Greens were in great condition. I would say if you get a chance to play this course, go ahead and book it especially a hot deal.

Always in fine shape, no CPO on 1 or 18. Cart service/starter was kinda loose that morning, not the usual. Usually they bring a cart down to the bag drop, not Wednesday. Guy that functioned as starter was not sure what was going on, much looser than usual as I said.

I've played this course several times before, and I don't know if they have new ownership, but the condition of the El Campeon course is below average. A lot of dry spots and fairways that have not been receiving regular watering

Such a great layout , some amazing holes .

Really enjoyed the day

First time I walked off a course due to slow play. Waited 3-10 minutes on each hole due to slow play.

The course is in good condition and challenging. That said, when we got with the starter he said that we may have a problem. They had a group of 52 that had started in the morning with the last foursome teeing off at 9:30. Normally it wouldn’t be an issue since we were teeing off at 11:08. The starter had heard that the group had played another course the day before and played a 6 hour round. We were playing at a 4 hour pace and caught up with the last group at hole 10. The ranger came out several times to get them to pick up the pace and finally came to us and said that he was giving up. We were waiting 10-15 minutes between shots. I quit at hole 14. It was just unbearable and quite frankly inexcusable to let them play at that pace.

This is an upscale course that is in excellent condition. That being said, at some up scale courses the service is given with an expectation or a hand out for a tip. Not here! My experience was refreshing as the starter saw me getting out of my truck, brought me a cart. Then when I went inside the pro shop and the gentleman there had my starting ticket already printed with my name written on the top of it. I had pre paid online. These gentlemen deserve recognition! That is what will keep customers coming back. Not to mention the course is beautiful. Great experience!

We’ve loved El Campeon in previous years, and it is highly recommended always by many, me included. However, because of this, it is now overused, and sadly, by many standards of golfers. The pace of play is now appalling, and unfortunately no sign of course marshalling. We packed up after 14 holes @ 3h 45m.

Fortunately the starter team were great and suggested we could play 9 on Las Colinas, which we’d never played before. The difference was amazing. Great layout, great condition (not overplayed) and a joy to play. Will definitely return and play Las Colinas for 18 holes.

Course is in good shape. Greens area a bit grainy and many cart paths are under repair but his is a really fun track.

The club shop guy was a complete tool...about as bad customer service as I've ever seen at a golf course.
