Located just west of downtown Orlando in Clermont, Swiss Fairways Golf Course utilizes the wide open and hilly terrain that is typical for that area, but uncommon throughout the rest of the state. Large greens welcome low handicappers while strategic bunkering is incorporated into the layout to add some challenge. There are over a hundred sand traps in total and 10 water hazards come into play. Swiss Fairways Golf Course has a relaxed, casual atmosphere that is far from the typical country club environment. Although it is relatively unknown, the Swiss Fairways Golf Course will most likely grow in popularity due to its affordable rates and interesting layout.

Make tee time 1 hour before you want to play

This course overbooks AND does not have enough golf carts. As a result, both times we played it there were at least 9 foursomes waiting for carts and to tee off. Both times we didn’t get out onto the course until 1 1/4 hours after our reserved tee time. As a result, both times we were unable to finish our round. The pro shop won’t even let you check in until a cart is available for the most delayed tee time so you end up standing around for an hour along with all the other foursomes that are delayed before you can even check in. Not worth the cost which is equivalent to other nice courses in the area that don’t overbook and are better run so that you can at least finish your round.

Not Covid compliant

The staff does not adhere to masking and they do not believe in letting golfers who are not related to have their own cart. This is very worrisome and will probably stop me from playing here again until I get vaccinated.

Nice course

This is a nice track, good greens, fairways and tee boxes. Nice layout but could use some extra signage to tell you where to go on a few holes. Good pace of play, beverage cart was always around. Great value!

Frost Delay but No Understanding

So I've play this course a few times and have never had an issue with T-times or pace of play but today there was a frost delay that pushed all early morning t times to a 9am start. Rather than have golfers tee off from number 1 at 9am in the order of their original t times management decided to do a shotgun start at 9am. Our foursome was sent to #10 to start. We played the back nine in just around 2 hours, When we got to #1 to start our second nine there were 3 groups at the T box. Management told us to t off in front of these groups and sent a ranger out to the foursome on #1 fairway to move to the side so we could play through. We felt kind of bad cutting around all these guys but we were starting our back nine. When we got to #2, a par 3, there was a foursome on the green and a threesome waiting to t off. it took us 30 minutes to finish #2. When we got to hole 3 t box it was the same thing. again it took us 30 minutes to play the hole. We quit after that hole as we were looking at a 3hour pace to play our back nine. I'll go back to this course but not when I know that inclement weather may come into play. Management really needs to look at what happened today and learn something from it.

Great Layout

Everything was great until the finish. We had to wait maybe 10 minutes for a cart because they were busy...no big deal, but when we were on 17 at 5:15pm a lady came by and said we had to hurry to get done as they were about to close up??? Not real pleased with that...doesn't get dark until 6:30 and noone was waiting on us...had no idea what the hurry was. Other than that, all good! Fun course with plenty of challenges.

Hidden Gem

This course is a hidden gem, fairways are well kept, greens are fast and can be challenging in spots. It's a lot of position golf, with long par 5's. Water hazards to keep you on your toes yet very enjoyable. 10 out of 10 recommend and the price is perfect!

An incredible surprise

The Name kept me from ever booking a round here as it sounds like a trailer park ...that was a big mistake on my part! This is a hidden gem! They could be a little more Covid aware...it is real and it is NOT a Hoax...so Please practice wearing face mask...that goes for the Ranger the cart girl and any other employees...

They are careless about Covid

For $30 I wouldn't complain about the course condition, that's way I give it a fair rating. However the biggest dealbreaker is the their attitude towards necessary precoutions to protect their customer from spreading of virus. I have no issue if they just personally don't believe Covid exist. But as operator of public facility, no staff was wearing mask in a crowded proshop, no social distancing, no disinfection, no single use of cart, you have to share cart with stranger. Now I understand how the virus can spread so fast and kill so many people in the States. If you care about your own health and safety, I do not recommend this course.
