About
Sweetwater Country Club is situated amid the beauty of the Wekiva State Park. Sweetwater is one of Orlando's premier golf courses, boasting a challenging championship layout with some of the area's best greens. The classic links layout brings a taste of Scottish golf to central Florida. Mature oaks shade the golf course, lining the fairways and framing the greens. The 6,238-yard layout offers a good amount of length but it's definitely not a grip-it-and-rip-it course thanks to tight fairways that require accurate shot placement. The course is home to one of the longest par 5s in the Southeast, a challenging 625-yard hole that is aptly named the "Loch Ness Monster." The heavily tree-lined hole double doglegs around a large lake. There are some challenging holes but Sweetwater Country Club isn't overly punishing for the high handicapper.

Very rough conditions.
The course layout is good, many of the tees have bare areas, 35-40% of the greens are very rough, most of the sand traps have grass growing: the only reason I played was because I was invited my a home owner/member.
Ok if you live nearby
Bunkers terrible no sand.... grass arround bunkers and greeen poor. no clubhouse.. no bathrooms at beginning or end of ound
The course is ok. They need some sand in the bunkers. The greens are good. A couple needed attention. Over all it was ok. They don't rank on USGN so I couldn't fin a place to put my score in to certify my handicap. They used to be Sweetwater Highland ranch but are somehow not ranked with USGN now, I'm not sure why.
Rough stuff
Course was in pretty bad shape, the fairways were ok at best. Some of the greens were actually very nice, but some were atrocious. Clubhouse is under construction and it seems the course is kind of under repair.
The only guy in staff was accommodating and polite, and the hotdogs were hot, drinks were cold.
Would not play again though.
Be sure and find out the gate code 1st so you don't have to sit at the residence gate and look like a dumb dumb.
Enjoyable
First time playing this course. First hole to second hole is a strange lay out. The course is in process of being re-layed out and improved. Club house was also under construction so bathrooms only on 4th/5th hole. That was a little inconvenient. Some tee boxes were sandy, and some greens were brown around the edges. Definitely needing to upgrade, and it will be a nice course when that is completed.
Well it's close by
Fairways are very thin to nonexistent. Bunkers have no sand. and areas around bunkers are in poor condition.
weeds all over the place.
One man staff works hard and is helpful. No clubhouse.
Not worth it
Greens were ok but rest of course is in shambles. Worth about $12
Not really that good.
Difficult finding it as it was gated.
Greens good but fairways poor.
