Mission Inn Resort & Club - El Campeon Course

The pro was doing us a favor by letting us play his course

in great shape, worth the drive from east orlando.

This is a beautiful course with a lot of challenge for a new golfer. Several island holes and some long fairways for a beginner. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Great day of golf and I highly recommend this course.

El Campeon was outstanding! Fantastic layout, friendly starter and nice playing conditions.

It's hard to beat the quality, scenery and the challenging layout of this course. It's still going strong as it continues in its second century.

Mission Inn has the best courses in Central Florida. Colinas is not to be overlooked as it's just as fantastic as El Campeon, but El Campeon is more difficult. I'm a 10 handicap and my goal at El Campeon is to break 90 from the blue tees. I've failed 4 of 5 times. It's a totally different course from the white tees, but much of the challenge is on the putting greens so it's a challenge anyway you play it.

Go play them both. Don't be surprised if you end up liking Colinas more than Campeon! But either way, Campeon is a tough track.

We had an early (7am) tee time. There was a large group (tournament) going off shotgun at 7:30. I was not told about this when I booked my tee time and was very worried I would get caught behind the tournament and be in for a dreadfully slow round. Thankfully, the course staff started the tournament groups off far enough ahead where we never came close to catching any of them. Hats off to the course staff for ensuring the tournament play did not affect the early groups. Will be back again!

This is one of the most beautiful courses I played on... ery challenging

We arrived early and were told by the starter if we played fast he would let us go out first. We were able to play a three hour round.

Greens were healthier than I remember them being in January. Greens putted slower than I remember but they are very fair. Fairways and bunkers were good with no issues.

One of my favorite courses and I still enjoy playing it.

This was my first time playing this course. The course layout was great and very challenging. The conditions were not too good just because they had just recently aerated the entire course (greens, fairways, tee boxes, rough). Other than the bad conditions because everything was aerated and the greens were being sanded while I was playing, the course is great.

I loved the course layout. The course is very challenging. The greens are well protected by bunkers, elevation changes and overhanging trees. The greens are small and challenging. I was VERY surprised at how much elevation changes there are at the course. The course is a fantastic old school course (small greens, narrow fairways, lots of large, pretty trees). The are lots of large old oak trees with lots of spanish moss. I highly recommend the course, I just wish the conditions were better the day I played.

Great conditions, greens just a bit slower than expected but can’t complain. Believe the hype, but a long drive for me(Lake Mary), I will return when I can squeeze in 2 rounds

I’d put Mission Inn’s El Campeon up there with the best in Florida. Every hole is framed beautifully, there is not let up, always in pristine condition. You have to hit Golf shots all round, leave your B game at home.

I lived in Florida for years before finally playing El Campeon...my loss! This is absolutely one of the finest golf courses - anywhere! Sand and water, yes, but also hills and greens that are challenging to read. I'm glad I live close enough that I can now play it regularly.

This is a great golf course the difficulty is enough to make you work for your score.

Great conditions, greens just a bit slower than expected but can’t complain. Believe the hype, but a long drive for me(Lake Mary), I will return when I can squeeze in 2 rounds

A real gem. Great lay out. Very challenging course. Greens in great shape. A clear must play.
