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.

Challenging and beautiful elevation
This course was great. The elevation changes are incredible and it was fun to play. If I had to pick between this course and Los Colinas I’d pick Los Colinas, but you’ll be happy playing either
Great test of golf
Always enjoy playing Mission Inn El Campeon! Fun challenging well maintained and some beautiful golf holes as well. Greens were a bit slow in the early morning but really sped up throughout the day. Ranger and beverage cart young lady were super friendly and kept the morning moving along. Worth the drives from Orlando to Howey in the Hills!
Post ETA storm round
Course in great shape despite heavy rain. Exception was holes 1 & 18 were very wet. Cart path only
Great course.
As always. A must play if your in the area. Lots of character and wildlife. Old Florida but with dramatic, non-typical for Florida, elevations.
Great layout
Had a nice round greens were fast and true great layout will return
Could not have been happier!!
4 guys on a golf trip played both Mission Inn courses. Both courses were excellent. We played El Campeon in the afternoon and it was fabulous. Much different course than Los Calinas with regards to elevation changes and course layout. Both courses were in wonderful condition.
Staff was friendly and very helpful. They knew we were playing both courses that day and gave us the replay rate for both courses, without us saying a word about anything.
Had a great lunch between rounds at the bar as well. Mission Inn was great and I would recommend it to anyone!!!
Rain Policy
Problem getting rain check, it rain on our 3rd hole told they don’t give out rain checks. I work at a golf company which owns 21 courses. We always give out rain or injury passes to come back and play good for ever. I have received one that was given out 4 years ago. Pace of play was 5 hour round, waiting on every shot, course was not busy 1:32 tee time. Need better Rain policy.
Solid Course with a Great Layout
Solid course with a great layout and excellent conditions. ***GOLF PASS PERKS NOT HONORED*** part of the reason we played this course was for the $100 travel credit. I called Golf Now customer service and was told it was handled through the course. No one at the course had any idea of a travel credit and said it must have been handled by Golf Now(I even spoke to management). Will not ding the course’s rating but do expect Golf Now to follow through with what they advertise.
Beautiful and challenging
Course was very well maintained and there are plenty of challenges along the way with the 85 foot elevation changes. If you like beautiful vistas of the course you will love El Campeon. There are many elevation rises along the way and views looking back toward the Mission Inn, which is a lovely full-service hotel. Swimming Pool and hot tub, outdoor pool table and bar make this a great place to relax after your round. Golf clubhouse itself is nice, but not extraordinary. We would have loved a place to sit outside with a drink after our round. Staff is friendly and helpful.
Outstanding
Great course , great challenge, wonderful day at golf. Draw back foursome ahead to slow for not reason, playing extra balls and chasing all over, but the course is outstanding as always a great day, by the way birdy 17.
Visit area often, best by far. Los Colinas second best (sister course)
