Mission Inn Resort & Club - El Campeon Course

We asked at the pro shop while paying if the course had been punched or sanded recently and were told no that the greens were excellent. As we are playing there was a maintenance member spreading lumpy sand on all the greens in front of us. So each put was like hitting through bunker sand that was hit out on shots around the green. Unfortunate and the miscommunication from the staff was not appreciated. The course itself was unbelievably nice and we will return.

First off on a beautiful labor day morning. What a pleasant experience! Much recommended, course is a little wet but in top shape.

Mission Inn has two fine golf courses, tennis, swiimming, boating, dining, and more- all away from it all in the country; highly recommend after playing there for about 50 years;

We had a lotta fun. The course is in good shape, with thick rough, and hard to read greens. If you get lucky and make the correct read on a putt, you will sink it. We made more putts on the back nine, due to learning the greens. Even for an average golfer, the drive off the tee can be shaped over the water or around a dogleg on several holes.

Shirts are required to be tucked in. The service is impeccable. The cart personnel are fun.

It is a tough course to get a tee time in the spring, due to all the weekend tournaments

Could only play 4 holes before we got stuck behind a very large walking group/tournament. Was never told about this tournament and was never given the option to play any of the other courses. Couldn’t get refund because I prepaid on GolfNow.

This course is a traditional, challenging course atypical for FL. The elevation changes are amazing. To score on this course, you need to bring your A game. Fairways are fair in width, but tree lined and the rough is gnarly. The rough in most places is a 3/4 shot penalty. The greens had been aerated about 2 weeks ago but putted well with the light sand layer that had been applied. I highly recommend this course to anyone who wants a fair, hard challenge to their game.

great Course, Great Experience, Will go back for sure

Challenging course makes you think.The more I play it the better I like it.

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!
