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.

Owner is a complete A hole

On the 18th hole, owner comes up and says we were playing too slow (5 hours). Mind you it was 95 degrees with the real feel temperature of 115. Apparently we were supposed to run to each shot. Mind you, there was no one behind us complaining that we were holding them up. Terrible way to treat people on an already dead course.

you had a hot deal at 9:00 am, you were still playing at 3:30, thats 6.5 hours when I went to school. Also, they never mentioned 4 groups that went around them. Another issue, they brought their own alcohol and were drunk, hardly carry their clubs to their car. Last thing, wore gym clothes, should never have allowed to play.

Even though the course no longer offers their back 9 it still gets the job done. I am a repeat customer and will continue to golf here.

Will be back!

I've played Swiss fairways 4 times and I really enjoy the course. Hole #2 is awesome and the course itself is fun to play. The greens are all over the place, some are nice but most are rough. But honestly for how inexpensive a round of golf is there, I dont mind looking past that. Overall I'd say if you want a practice round or you are trying to improve your golf game and getting rounds in this summer, this is the place!

You Get What You Pay For

I guess I should have read some reviews instead of going off of the number of stars. The greens are in very rough shape. When I asked the guy in he proshop about the greens he got belligerent. I guess I offended him.

Always remember, you get what you pay for.

Worth Every Dime

For the price I got it for I was extremely pleased with the condition of the course, pace of play and the layout. Each time I play this course I see definite improvement. Will be back to play this course again. If you're in the area and don't want to break the bank but play on a decent course Swiss Fairs Ways is the place.

First Time Playing

I booked a 7am tee time. Showed up about 640am to hit the driving range and warm up. Nobody was at the pro shop to check in so I called the number that was taped to the glass window at the front. The employee answered and I told him I was there to check in for my tee time. He said “yeah we open at 7”. Staff showed up about 658am or so. I was able to check in at that point. The course was in pretty rough condition. The fairways were about the length of the rough and your ball would sit down in it. Layout was cool.

You get what you pay for

9 hole course that you play thru twice on different tees. Course is in rough shape which makes the course pretty challenging actually. Not much difference between the fairways and the rough. Greens are all over the place. Great views. You will see whether skiers. Hole number 2 is picturesque. Driving range is mats and my manicured at all, but has distance markers every 25ft. Only 2 or 3 other groups playing with us. No one got on top of each other. John was man I no the desk and is very friendly.

Not good

I don't usually play 9 holes courses, yes, this is a 9 hole course that suggest using a different tee on the 2nd 9, but it was on a Hot Deal so I took it. The fairways needed cutting badly and we're like playing in the rough in many places. The friendly staff was a good point however.

What a treat!

First time here. Conditions were good. I liked the layout. It provides a few risk/reward situations for shot selection. Hole 2 is worth the trip. Hitting over water skiers was a new experience. Playing the front twice was actually very enjoyable as the course was not full and pace of play was not effected in the least. I’ll be back.

Overall good enough for the price

Biggest issues are the swamp holes, mostly the third hole that tends to be very wet. Par 3 holes are a bit long for senior golfers.

9 Hole Course

Greens were in solid shape but the rest of the course is pretty rough. Biggest turn off is that it’s 9 holes that you are the change tee boxes and play it twice for “18 holes”
