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.

Great Front 9 Flooded out Back 9

Cypress Head is a shorter course but laid out with water and bunkers so that is still plenty challenging. Course is excellent condition. Didn't get to play back 9 as a very heavy storm came in and flooded the course with a couple inches of water standing in the fairways and around greens. Can't wait to go back and play back 9.

Nice layout,terrible greens

We played here not ong after the course had been redone.Liked it.The greens were a little slow but were very good.Now we played and the "greens" were brown,hard as a rock and bumpy.we played in the afternoon and were behind some 4 some playing some kind of match with a referee.Looked like a 2 man scramble.We waited on evrery tee and every shot while these inconsidate,slow players took their time playing.Oter golfers were starting to line up behind us and 1 couple drove around us the the "big" match in front of us.We finally went arond them on 14 so we cold get done before dark.I hope one of those players read this,but you can't fix stupid.If you talk to any pro today he will say that slow play is the biggest problem in golf today.If you can't play faster then let the rest of the golfers go through!!!

Worth the Drive from Orlando

Enjoyed very much this golf facility. The par 3 greens can be challenging even though they only require a short iron. The water hazards on the back nine are very interesting but placement is key to a good score. The conditions were very good throughout the course, including the practice facilities. It was a busy place for the start of a weekend and I feel fortunate to manage to obtain a tee time with so many dedicated golfers who seem ready to support this facility better than average.

slow play

I have golfed here many times and I love the course, always good conditions and friendly staff. but today was very slow play and didn't enjoy my round. they really should have a ranger. I know I am more hesitant to book another round here because of this but I will go back because it is a nice course and staff is very friendly. people really need to pick it up a bit and allow others to play through if open wholes ahead of them. PLEASE BE CONSIDERATE OF OTHERS!!!

Needs Work

The course needs some TLC. The layout is good but, they need to let the fairways grows so that there is something to hit from besides dirt. I beg of you guys asm I do with oher courses in the area. You pin placements were terriblely unfair, We all are not professionals. We are just wating to have a good time not go for a million dollar prize. Really guys.

GOOD GREENS

Greens were in good condition but fairways and tee boxes need attention. #14 is a great hole. Make sure you take enough of the water to afford you a shot into the green for your second shot. Looks like they ran out of real estate with the design team and had to fit a very short par three in on #16. Two par 5's to finish is also a little strange in terms of design, but overall a decent course to play.

Different

The course needs some help. It would be nice if they would let the fairways grow some grass instead of cutting them so short. Also, some water would help. The greens need help. Nothing special about this course. I is like most courses in the area. Everything needs help.

Saturday at Cyprus Head

We scheduled a 2 p.m. tee time for a twosome on a Saturday. We were paired up with another twosome and had a good round. The pace of play was very slow there were several foursomes in front of us. The entire 18 holes took 5 hours

Something has to be done about pace of play, rangers just shrug it off, how often do you see 4 groups on the same hole?.
