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.

One of my favorites in the area

Cypress Head is one of my all time favorite courses. I love the layout, especially the risk/reward of all 4 of the par 5's. The staff does a great job of always keeping this course in good condition even after a hurricane comes thru. There is some wet spots at the moment but it is definitely playable.

Staff is usually pretty friendly but on this day they were lacking a bit. Starter wouldn't allow singles to go out even though the course was WIDE open. Kind of odd in my opinion. But still I highly recommend this course.

Well kept Municipal Course

Been playing Cypreshead for many years from time to time. Always in decent shape. The greens were a little slower than normal but healthy. The rest of the course is in good shape. Challenging layout, good value. Will keep it in the rotation.

A very nice short coarse. One par three was only 87 yards and two par 4"s under 300 yards. The coarse is well maintained and the staff very friendly.

The course was very nice looking, I was on vacation but only got to play 4 holes because of the weather. The pro shop staff was very friendly and the starter ask me some questions to get me on my way.

Great course for the money

We got out about 20 minutes before our scheduled tee time. The front nine was vey wet, the back nine was a little drier. The clubhouse had a sign stating that it was cart path only on 4,13 and 14 but actually it was cart path only on about 8 holes. It was a challenging course for any level of golfer.

Nice Course, Avoid Weekends!

A nice moderately challenging course. We had a nice round, but there was a lot of waiting to tee off or move to the next hole. Just goes to show you should avoid playing the weekends if you can.

Careful with same day booking

So, we booked our tee time the day of. 4 hours in advance on GolfNow. When we arrived 20 minutes early for our round we checked in at the pro shop, no issues, told to go see the starters. Immediately asked what my name was and what time my tee time was. They said I wasn't on their tee sheet and they weren't aware of the tee time. So we were placed behind 8 women...all 8 tee off together which pushed our round back 30 minutes. Surprisingly our round was just at 4 hours. Completely expecting a 5 hour round. Course conditions were good even without the rain. And the layout was different.

Rude old golfers

Course is nice and so is layout, but rude old golfers who I'm guessing live there expect you to play at there slow pace and then more old rude golfers behind you assume you don't know how to play golf. Just feels like this course is for old slow rude golfers, don't play if you can drive over 200, you'll be waiting 10 mins just to get enough room to tee off on each hole. Horrific pace of play, lots of old rude golfers who think they own the course.
