Mission Inn Resort & Club - El Campeon Course

Challenging course with water out of site but in play. A few baried balls in rough were tough to get out. But over good course to play.

I was back & forth on days to play. I thought I put in Wednesday but when I showed up I had no reservation. After looking at my reservation email it showed Tuesday (my fault) the staff was able to accommodate us to play but could not honor my “hot deals” price. Since I drove 75 min to play we paid full price. Thanks to the staff for accommodating us shame in me for not paying closer attention. Is there anyway to credit me the $70 I paid for the Tuesday round I did not use?

This is our second time playing El Campeon and loved it. Course is in very good shape, the greens were fast and true and the scenery amazing. Very pretty course with elevation changes and enough challenges to make it fun and wanting to play again.

Very unique course for central Florida. Beautiful layout and lot of fun from start to finish. Greens rolled fast and tree, great elevation changes, and many unique holes.

Had a great time playing this course. Staff was super friendly, food at the. Luv house after the round was awesome. Cart girl had great timing. And the course was in great shape. We will definitely be back.

Course was in fantastic condition. Kudos to the ground crews. Greens were oerfect!

I had heard about the course from other golfers and decided to make the one-hour drive from Kissimmee. I was not disappointed. The course has much more elevation change than any other course I have played in Central Florida, plus lots of water hazards and sand traps. The first two holes (a par 5 followed by a par 3) give you an indication of what is to come. The third hole lulls you into complacency before you arrive at the fourth hole where there is a forced carry across a large pond with the fairway sloping up a ski hill. It continues from there. The course conditioning was good and the greens rolled true even though recovering from being punched a few weeks prior.

If I had to note one negative, it was the pace of play. Our group was waiting on EVERY shot and there was no sign of a course ranger/marshall trying to speed up play.

Looking forward to going back to play there again.

We played Las Colinas a few months ago and decided to return to Mission Inn the day after Christmas to play El Campeon. We drove and hour, and expected a full course.

Pace of play was spot on — never waited, and never pushed.

The course was in great condition tee to green, and the hills provided some challenges you don’t often get in central Florida, and some great views too.

Definitely worth the drive — we’ll be back!

Mission Inn’s El Campeon is one of my favorite courses in the Orlando area. It’s well-worth the drive out to it. Great layout, consistent conditions, a good variety of holes, always get paired up with great people. My only complaint this trip was that the greens were extremely top-dressed with sand and no warning was given. It did not always seriously affect the greens’ smoothness, but there definitely were times that it did. It was also difficult to gauge the speed from green to green. I was disappointed that I paid $70 for greens that were not consistent. A warning next time would be appreciated.

I play this course whenever I am in the area. It is in best shape I have seen. Greens were rolling extremely well. A couple tees perhaps not at their best but fairways and greens were great. I played early morning in about three hours. It has surprising elevation changes for a Florida course. Holes 4, 5, 6 and 7 all play 1.5 to 2 clubs longer on approach to greens.

I played thanksgiving day. Green was very good condition. But last saturday12/18/21 green was OK conditoon. I live Orlando and drove more than 50 minutes with toll. That kind of green conditon do not attract golfer who live in orlando.

First time playing here.

Excellent facility. Carts spotless. Typical old pro shop layout. Nice friendly staff.

As I parked a cart was driven up behind the car to collect me and the clubs. Very nice touch as being British bag drops always confuse us.

Having to pay for range balls was the only sore point. No mention of this when booking or when checking in. I was asked would I like to use the range, I said yes and was then charged even though I gave in Cadbury’s chocolate Just a small niggle but others should know.

The course has a fantastic layout. Some stunning holes.

Excellent for bird enthusiasts also.

Would definitely play again.

Thank you

A great layout in excellent condition. Greens are the best I've seen in the 11 years I've been playing here. Friendly staff and good practice area. A day at El Campeon is always a treat.
