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.

Outstanding

I drove from Windermere to Clermont and it was about a 40 minute drive. It’s got a lot of elevation and a lot of beautiful sites. I really enjoyed this course a lot and it was worth every second of my drive. The owner came out and was very friendly. Highly recommend it.

Minnesota couple hits the links

Greens were in good shape for this time of year. Very busy on this Sunday afternoon but pace of play was fine considering. Lady in pro shop did a good job but not overly friendly. We played in the afternoon and the trash (cans and bottles mostly) were over flowing on the back 9. Know they may say it was the end of the day and they would be picked up when course closes or tomorrow morning. But for us it made a negative memory. Overall the course was in decent condition for this time of year.

Impressed

I have played this course every year since 2015 and by far this is the finest shape it's ever been in. It's apparent the the owner and staff our working hard to restore the course to its original conditions. The club house staff and starter were very friendly. Tee boxes and fairways were excellent with few bare spots. Looks like the bunkers have been redone. Greens are awsome. This truly is a hidden gem. We will be back before we head North to the tundra. Play this course when in the Clermont area.

Very pleased with this course!

First time playing, through recommendations from others that this course has improved it's course conditions. A very fun layout that gets a little tight on a couple of the long par 4'/5 holes. The water skiers if a welcome distractions. Go play, I expect that you will have fun!

Great Value

The clubhouse staff were very courteous and friendly, with checkin very easy. The starter was very friendly and helpful with some course tips. The course was in good shape overall but some of the greens were bumpy and patchy. We played in the early afternoon and the pace of play was excellent and being paired up with a gentleman from New York and a local youngman made for an enjoyable afternoon. The only downside is we didn't see the cart person on the back nine and the water station was empty so it was a bit tough in the heat. Overall, much improved from my previous experience a couple of years ago and I will be back again before we head north.

Fun Round

Course was in good shape , greens were in good condition. Staff is strict on checking in and starting no more than 15 minutes before your round but otherwise cordial. Some nice challenging holes and was well worth the price paid. Definitely will play again.

Tango

Fairways in need of attention and some of the greens also need help. Players need to rake traps and ball marks on greens.
