Frustration

Very frustrating, starter put his friends out ahead of us to make up 4 ball. Our time was 3.13 but his friends were 3.47. We didn't get going as a result until 3.40 and it was extremely slow and because of the cold we felt it more. Never again !

Great practice course!

I thought Dubsdread was the perfect short course in Orlando, but Grande Vista is up there. Wider fairways, but very fast greens even in damp conditions. It's only 9 holes, but perfect to get a quick practice round. I truly enjoyed it.

Too short. Too expensive.

This is an executive course that cost $100. The range balks are $20 for a small bucket. Horrible value all around.

Frustration

All started going downhill when the starter allowed his friends to go ahead of us. Their tee time was 3.47 and ours was 3.13. They made up a 4-ball with 2 others. They were extremely slow and we were continually frustrated waiting at every tee and it was also very cold which made the waiting worse. Due to the late start and slow play we didn't finish until almost 6pm for 9 holes !! Very annoyed.

Pretty Course

Nice course. Lots of water hazards. Must take cart as holes not always contiguous. Very friendly staff. Course in very good condition. Directions to a couple tees could be better, very confusing for 4th tee in particular.

Impeccable condition

Played a quick nine with a friend, was paired up with others due to tee times overbooking, but we were paired with some nice friendly beginner golfers from Wisconsin. The course layout was impeccable, some of the best fairways in Orlando here, folks. Greens are the perfect speed and had a very good time playing here!

This course is a tad expensive when it's not on a Hot Deal, but when it is I absolutely recommend you snatch up a chance to play here.

Nice round

Enjoyed a pre-Christmas 4 ball with my 3 sons.

Only thing is that I had to leave my drivers license at the pro shop as security against the club rentals. We left after the game and forgot about the license. I’m surprised no one tried to contact me about it. I only realized several days later and had to return to pick it up.

Little 9 Hole Course

Nice little 9 hole course. You have to play same 9 holes twice. Many par 3s for one 9, but all interesting and challenging. Lovely staff. Well kept course. Nice greens.

Nice course

Nice little course, it is a bit short but fun, it was a little busy and when you turn it backs up a bit. But it is manageable.

But I would recommend this course
