Editor's Note: Course closed for business in 2019. See Grand Cypress - New listing for the remaining opened 18 holes.

There are three Jack Nicklaus-designed nines at Grand Cypress Resort that are played in three different 18-hole combinations. The East/North course presents an interesting set of challenges. The North nine was built in 1984 and underwent a complete renovation two decades later. The improved layout has terraced fairways, mounding, and platform greens with yawning bunkers. There are generous landing areas to provide some relief from the vigorous challenges. The East golf course is slightly more player friendly with fewer bunkers in front of the greens, allowing for more run-up shots. In addition to the three nines, Nicklaus also designed a traditional links course that is an homage to the renowned St. Andrews Old Course.

Very nice!

Actually there is nothing to complaint. Great staff at the bag drop, cordial at the pro shop, start and on course. Tee boxes and bunkers in very good shape. Fairways only on some spots wet due to the hurricane Irma. Greens are rather fast and because of partly undulation not ease to putt. Pace was very good. Very good dinner in the Clubhouse after the round.

Overall – one of the top places in Orlando – go there. And watch out for hot deals :o)

Excellent

Have played grand cypress before last year, the new course. But doesn't compare to the north/south course. Just my opinion. Will be playing this course again next trip.

Great course but...

Beautiful course with excellent condition tee to green. Odd that there is no GPS in the carts which is the only miss. No ice container either but still a good place for a memorable round.

Slow pace

Planned on playing East North courses starting early in the morning. Once first nine were completed we were stuck behind 3 groups at our tenth. The idea of playing early is to be able to complete round in timely fashion. Totally unacceptable to be stuck behind other groups on the turn and then be told that right of way goes to tee times. I guess plan on more than 5 hours an the weekend no matter how early you start. Sleep in.

Great Course

It is a great Course. I do not understand why nobody advise about the green conditions when you book the tee time. It was OK, recovering from maintenance.

Great experience

Always enjoy playing Grand Cypress. The staff is always friendly and the course is in fantastic shape. Wide fairways with challenging approaches makes this course fun. The greens are in good shape and roll true.

Great staff and a true Jack Nicholas design

Fun course with typical Jack Nicholas wide and friendly fairways. A visually appealing layout, and the course was in great shape. The staff was very accommodating and you could not beat the price.

Hot Golf

We had a 8:20 tee time and they were on time. The driving range had no balls because the range did not get picked the night before. The rate for me and my 1 time a year player son was great. I thought the course was in great condition and fair set up for your average golfer. We played 18 holes in 4 hours as a twosome. We o Luck had to wait on a few of th hole on the back nine, but as a twosome I expected it. July golf weather in Florida is hot and muggy! Bring plenty of baby powder for your hands.

Premium Course

Buddies trip so first time playing or even hearing about this course. Lived it from the. I mentioned we pulled in the tree lined entry. The Conditions were awesome. If you've read any of my reviews you know I place heavy rating in the greens performance and these did not disappoint. As good as any. The layout was. Very fun and interesting.. I thought it was very fair, even for a first timer I don't know, some places just have a feel to them and this one did....a good one. Clubhouse was high end and the. Eat we had was good as well. Good pro shop too. Staff was friendly. Really glad I played it, would highly recommend. One of my favorites on our trip.
