Course Highlights
Cypress Head delivers a challenging, accurate-demand layout with forced carries and varied holes that consistently reward return visits. Exceptionally friendly staff, well-maintained conditions, and strong value make this a standout hidden gem in Volusia County.

About

Holes 18
Type Public/Municipal
Par 72
Length 6805 yards
Slope 139
Rating 72.9

Cypress Head, an Arthur Hills design, is a blend of holes and styles, a layout of two distinct nines that impress players through different means. At 6,805 yards from the tournament tees, the course is not a beast (there are three alternative sets to choose from).

The first nine is the highlight at Cypress Head. These holes take on a variety of shapes and strategies with little repetition.

It features multi-tiered undulating greens and preserved wetlands with water coming into play on 14 of the 18 holes. The 14th hole is a 478-yard par 4 over water that comes into play off the tee as well as the second shot to the multi tiered green.

The Golf Club also features a lighted driving range and practice facility. Two practice putting greens, a target green and sand bunkers for honing your skills before taking on the challenges of the course

With its' superb conditions and beautiful wetlands setting, Cypress Head is a public club that offers a private and tranquil experience.

First Time Playing

Punched & Sanded greens!!

First time playing here - decent layout - unfortunately either course did not inform Golfnow with regard to aerification of the greens or GolfNow just didn’t note it upon booking. Nice people but would have liked to have known what I was in for as far as the greens go. I’d definitely play here again but would not recommend this place for another 2 weeks or so, the greens will be pretty sandy and bumpy.

No Notice

The course was ok, it’s Golf Now that sucks, for not mentioning aeration of greens and fairways. Dodging fairway turds and sand greens is not what I expected. Please give warnings of such improvements.

4/30 review below ????

That guy on 4/30 who ripped this course must have shot really a bad score or played with people that he hated. Or, he got this course confused with Cypress Knoll. Just ignore that guy. This is an excellent course and they get a LOT of play. In fact, very difficult to get a tee time here in the winter. Summer slows down when snow birds leave. They are aerating the course but that is one reason it is always in excellent shape. Great staff and great course.

Course Condition

As a former superintendent;

I have played this course about 15- times and every time the conditions have been excellent. The greens are true, the tees are properly maintained, and the fairways are above average. This is a direct comparison to the other courses in the area.

Overall the course is in good health!

Stay Away!!

We vacation for a couple of weeks in this area every spring and play a variety of courses each year. Played this course years ago and recall it being a tough track with narrow water lined fairway’s and small greens. A real challenge!. However the course has been severely neglected ….everything about the place is tired from the run down club house, unkept fairways and rough, to the dead bare brown greens, to an actual dead rotting raccoon not ten feet off the back of a green.We should have realized the locals stay away as there were only two other cars in the parking lot when we arrived for our 12:40 time. We debated turning around after the first hole and heading to one of the other area courses but thought maybe better things lay ahead; NOPE!! Go to Muni North or Muni New Smyrna as they are both in this price range and in much better shape. If you want to spend a few extra bucks Venetian bay is a step up from all of these but still a good deal overall.

Best course around…

I play a couple times a week at most courses within my 50 mile radius and find that Cypress Head is in the top 5. From tee box to green, you’ll find a well kept course with constant maintenance being done on and outside the playing areas. Greens are in great shape as well as all the bunkers. Staff is very accommodating, nothing not to like here. Play it…you’ll enjoy it.
