Mission Inn Resort & Club - El Campeon Course

This is a fun course with a lot of elevation and greens that will keep you guessing. Last time out, they had high rough which made for a slower round as the ball tends to disappear. There was a lot of people looking for their ball for quite a while. The prices are a bit high for the summer time, slow play, and location to really grab repeat play. But, it's a fun track that will test your skills while you enjoy the scenery and nature.

Staff is great.

What a great course do yourself a favor and go play it

The staff was friendly but this is not a 4 star course.

First time playing this course. We were warned it is difficult and that’s fine…..but when the rough is so high that you can’t find your ball that’s frustrating. Sometimes we couldn’t even see our feet because the grass was so high. We shot about 10 strokes higher than our norm. We are in the 11 index range. Not sure we will put ourselves through that frustration again.

A birthday gift from my wife and our first time traveling here. I joined up with a great group of guys that get together every year to play. El Campeon was such a beautiful course, layout, conditions and experience! Rough was truly rough! I lost a couple balls and helped look for some with the guys throughout the course. Fairway is your friend. Greens rolled true. need to remind others to fix their ball marks to keep it rolling nice. Lot of people golfing and pace was little slower but not terrible. Overall about a 5 hr round but the minimal downtimes allowed me to soak in the beautiful hills and landscaping of the property. I will certainly be back again!

Rough was cut very thick, if you miss the fairway, good luck finding your ball, otherwise is a beautiful course

El Campion is a difficult track with extreme elevation changes on several holes. Many tight driving holes as well with narrow fairways. The greens are flawless. The fairways were beautiful. The tee boxes were OK and the bunkers were well maintained. The rough is brutally long. Allowing Bermuda grass to grow 6 to 8 inches is just stupid. They really ought to do something about this. All it does is slow down play. Lots of water, too with some forced carry shots. Bring plenty of balls.

I never saw a ranger and the group’s in front of me where rude ( they spent 10 minutes on every green and they didn’t care that I was in the fairways waiting for them to get off the greens ) they all need to play one ball and play golf not sure what they thought they were playing.

Los Collins's was no in that great of shape , a lot of washed areas, construction, the course has gone down hill from the last time I played their.

No complaints about this course. Good layout and conditions were excellent. I will be playing here again.

This course did not disappoint. The course itself was immaculate. We played on the same day as an amateur tournament and man was it tough. I lost at least 6 balls, and only 1 went into the water. The other 5 vanished in the rough. The rough had to have been at least a foot deep. We watched every shot down, would drive immediately to it, and the ball would be nowhere to be found, just feet off of the fairway. I’ve heard this called “The Augusta National of Howey-In-The-Hills,” and I see why. The hills, thick rough, and tight pine-tree-lined fairways were unlike anything else in the Central Florida area. Fairways were in great condition. Greens rolled pure. It was something special.

Pace of play was a little slow. It was a Saturday which is to be expected, but there was really only one foursome causing the traffic jam. Don’t remember seeing a marshal out, but it wasn’t too bad. The only other gripe was that the pro shop wasn’t aware of any GolfPass Perks. It’s shown on the course page, but three different pro shop employees had no clue what it was referring too. Overall, it was a challenging course that exceeded my expectations. Can’t wait to play again.

Great course layout is awesome. I had a great time yesterday. I'll be back. The course is in great shape from tee to green.

Second time playing El Campeon and it was just as amazing as the first. Plenty of elevation changes, some being pretty extreme. Some blind fairway shots. Greens were spectacular. Smooth and fairly fast. Not lightning quick. Ideal I'd say. Staff was friendly. Only issue was some inexperience with the food service. Time will fix that. Not a typical Fla course by an means. Worth the trip. Did not stay at resort so cannot attest to anything there.

Course is well maintained, ponds and lakes are not. It is a challenging course, wide variety of hole layouts. They let the members play in groups of 5 and they will not let you as a single play with any two or three-somes, so if you can't get out before 11 in the summer, you will get hit by the afternoon rains.

The course is in beautiful shape and the greens are fantastic with very consistent roll and pace. The scenery is gorgeous and the staff is polite and friendly. We stayed 2 nights and played El Campeon twice. Great time and a true but fair test of golf. 100% recommend Mission Inn and El Campeon golf course
