Located southeast of downtown Orlando and about 25 minutes from Orlando International Airport, Harmony Golf Preserve is a secluded championship golf course set on 260-acre wildlife preserve and is a Certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary. Rated a Top 50 Public golf course in the Golf World Readers' Choice for 2010, the course was designed by Johnny Miller and is difficult enough from the championship tees to have hosted the 2007 Hooters Tour Michelob Ultra Classic, but features five sets of tee boxes. Harmony Golf Preserve is home to a full practice facility and driving range, full service dining in the Harmony Town Tavern, full locker room and shower facilities, as well as banquet facilities for large groups.

So sad this course has fallen

Well, the greens are great. Is you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all my mom would say.

So, at Harmony Golf Preserve...Well kept greens make for good putting.

What happened to this beautiful track otherwise? Muddy, barren fairways in which good drives stop short are the standard. Sand traps with no racks abound.

Frankly, it's a maintenance nightmare. If not for this, it would tick all the boxes, and that was my previous experiences here. Now, well, it's just a mess.

Awful conditions

Course fairways are in horrible condition. Tee boxes have patchy grass. Greens are the only area of this course in decent shape.

Wasted $$

Greens are the best thing on the course. Tee boxes are horrendous, no grass. uneven pits and sand. Fairways are absolutely horrible with dirt/sand areas throughout, so NO roll on tee or long fairway shots.

Recommendation - until conditions drastically change, DO NOT WASTE YOUR $$

For summer, expected more lush

As always staff was quite friendly. Advised that the local cranes worked the course over digging for bugs.

Great layout. With lots of rain in the area, expected lots of greenery. The cranes really have worked the course though. Many bald spots on fairways and other treated areas. I'm sure they're getting ready for snowbird season, but course was in pretty rough shape.

Tee box fair; fairways left some to be desired; greens in good condition with true reads and smooth surface.

Will be back, but likely closer to cooler weather temps.

Great course.

Overall, a great course. Challenging enough to make you come back. The back 9 fairways are a little beat up from the birds, but not much to complain

Great greens, terrible fairways and tees

The greens are as good as anywhere in the area. Soft, true, pretty quick. But the fairways are in terrible shape. Tees are worse than usual.

They said they will be fixing things via overfeeding in October, so I guess I'll be back when things are improved.

Practically criminal

My brother-in-law and I played Harmony as part of 36 hole day after a morning at Royal St Cloud. He had played here once a while ago and has been trying to get me to play it for a year. What a gigantic mistake! To pay $45 after 3pm on a Saturday, and then find out how embarrassingly bad the conditions were was maddening. As a golfer who loves a good layout, it's practically criminal to let a good one like this turn to dirt and weeds. I've played some bad courses in my day, but I've never seen one charge such a ridiculous rate for the "privilege". Yes, the greens were decent. There is virtually no grass on the tees or fairways, and the greenery that's there is almost all weeds. The little bit of grass is all burned out brown. There are sizeable patches of up-turned dirt from the Sandhill cranes that were EVERYWHERE. Unlike some other commenters, I thought the staff was very friendly, and the pace of play was phenomenal, but that was because there was nobody there but us, and it was easy to tell why. We paid about the same amount of money for our morning tee time at RSC, and the experience was 100 times better. Don't waste your time, and don't believe the paid liars on here giving this crap five stars.

This used to be one of my favorite courses but it is a dog track now. I’ve got no idea how this could have happened to such a wonderful course.

Awful fairways

$65 is well over priced for this course particularly during the summer. Pro shop person was not friendly at all and when we mentioned that the fairways were awful and that there was no cart girl he just blew it off without commenting. Don’t waste your hard earned money playing here until they repair the fairways!

Playable biut Disappointing

The course has taken a turn for the worse. The fairways are barren, with dirt all around. The Greens are in good shape. We last played here approximately a month ago, I don't know what happened. Will come back after they restore it to it's original condition.

waste of time and money

One of the best around has gone to crap. Hadn't played there since last summer. Complete dissapointment. Would have given 0 stars except greens were in pretty good shape. Pace of play was excellent because there was no one there, never saw another group and we teed off at 11 am-- and this is why. Rest of course terrible. Anywhere there was supposed to be grass there wasn't. Fairways were dried up browned out and had HUGE patches of plain dirt. Same around Greens complexes. Every single one of them. Huge patches of tightly mown St. Augustine grass that crunched when you walked on it and this is the rainy season here in Florida. Tee boxes were the same and some were even worse. Only where there happened to be some real rough could you get any cushion under your ball. Doubt if we ever go back. 49$ Senior Fla. resident "discount" fee is Ridiculous. Wouldn't pay 20$ to play there now. Sad.

Don't waist your money

A couple of friends of mine went to play last week. wen we go to the bag drop and parked there was a young man in aa blue cart that watched us unload our clubs park our car then we loaded our clubs . He never moved from his blue cart. He never greeted us , never gave us a course update? We thought this to be odd since all courses will at least greet you and help with bags, not this course. We went in and payed 60 bucks , this time of the year there are summer rates but this course dose not have them. We went to the 1st hole to tee off away we went. we notices that the tee boxes were in terrible shape as well as the fair ways, big bare areas with nothing but dirt wand weeds. it looked like the sand hill cranes have been digging them although the front nine had a couple of cool doglegs and water shots there was fairways of weeds and the tee boxes were waist areas. when we got to the back nine it was twice as bad the tee boxed and fairways were trash, 11, 13, 14, 15 and 16 fairways were completely unplayable, I have seen Mississippi cow pastures in better playing conditions than the back nine of Harmony. The owners, managers and ground superintendent should be fired . They do not know what they are doing or just don't care. The results speak for themselves. I do not recommend this course and will not return.

Nice track, Needs Help!

I've always enjoyed the layout at Harmony, but the course needs some TLC. The greens are in decent shape and rolled okay, but from tee to green, the course is in terrible shape. The tee boxes are shot, which to me is not that big of a deal since a tee is used, but is an indicator of the lack of care for the course. As for the fairways and fringes around the greens, Wow! the Bermuda grass is all but gone due to the fast growth of weeds! You know its bad when you can't improve your lie in the fairway because you can't find any grass? Anyway, not here to beat up a course, but to give a honest opinion of the playability. Not good!

Greens are great, everything else is dismal

Very impressed by the greens, but to charge $65 for tee boxes that are overgrown or full of sand is outrageous. Multiple fairways were just awful. Lots of rain is I'm sure the issue, but the price should reflect the courses conditions. I would have a hard time paying more than $30 for this round again and we paid $65 on the day.

Terrible Tee Boxes

Me and a couple of Friends went golfing Saturday . They drove up from Clearwater and after we checked I we started at the driving range and noticed there was no sand to Fill our divots. Then we wanted to putt while waiting, although the original putting green was OK the grass Surrounding the green was a mixture of weeds and dirt. When we got to the white tees on 1 we noticed it was in terrible shape there’s hardly any grass and it is filled with weeds. We kind of blew it off because we thought this was just the first team, however when we went and played the whole course every Teebox was in such terrible shape they are bare with mud sand and full of weeds it doesn’t look like they know how to plant grass on the tea boxes, some of the fairways had dead zones on them where the Sandhill Crane have destroyed several areas of the back nine notably 11, 13,14 and 15 fairways. This course needs help.

Fairway and tee box maintenance

Considering the rain we have had recently, the condition of the fairways and tee boxes was disappointing. Multiple barren patches. Not in the best condition I have seen this course.
