Mission Inn Resort & Club - El Campeon Course
About
The highly popular El Campeon Course at Mission Inn Resort consistently ranks in the top 10 of Florida's many golf courses. The course originally opened in 1917 and decades later in 1992, it was joined by a second 18-hole course, Las Colinas. El Campeon is not only one of the state's oldest golf courses but also one of its most challenging. The traditional design remains largely unchanged except for a renovation in 1926. The course winds through towering forests and numerous spring-fed lakes. The layout features water on thirteen holes as well as dramatic elevation changes that measure over 85 feet across the rolling fairways and undulating greens. The signature hole of the golf course is the par-5 17th. This lengthy double dogleg possesses more hazards than some entire courses do.

Fantastic Course
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.
Great Condition
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.
Great golf!
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
Greens
Greens had been punched but have grown in nicely. They need to cut them or rile them because they’re rolling at about 7. Should be 10-11. Conditions overall in great condition. Cart girl was absent most of round on this course it’s important as no half way house. Overall great track and history
Overpriced
Course layout is good with elevation changes. Some quirky holes with risk/reward. If I had known the greens had been punched recently (they were healing up but extremely slow) I wouldn't have booked this team time. Tee boxes were beat up. Overall, due to the greens and tee boxes, not worth the money I paid.
Slow Greens
Course is challenging but many tee boxes were beat up. Should have had a disclaimer that the greens had been punched recently. They were beyond slow. Not worth the price I paid.
Fantastic course
The course was amazing from tee to green. It was beautifully laid out. The only issue was gnats on several holes that swallowed us up. It is as nice of a course as you can play. PGA level
Loved it.
This course is one of the nicest I have played. Everything about the course itself was amazing. The course was in top shape from tee box to greens and the views of the course is like playing a world class course. The only problem I ran into were the gnats. They were pretty bad on some holes, to the point that I slapped my ball and got in the cart and took off because they were covering my ball and legs and swirling all around me.
Best condition ever
The layout is always one of the best in the state, but the condition is better than ever. After hosting the LPGA event, the greens were like glass, fairways perfect and the 2-3 inch rough rightly penalized a wayward drive. If you are a low handicapper, there has never been a better time to test your skills. Higher handicaps will enjoy the pristine conditions, but they might want to bring an extra sleeve of balls.
El Campeon
Just go play it and you will see. Course is in impeccable condition after hosting D3 College Championship and upcoming EPSON Tour event. Bring your best swing, short game and patience around this old school Classic. Exemplary Mission Inn!!!
