Mayfair Country Club
About
Opened in 1922, Mayfair Country Club is one of the oldest golf courses in Florida and it's still the only course in the historic city of Sanford. Over the years, it has hosted a number of famous players including Sam Snead and Arnold Palmer. The layout is wide open with a traditional design that is player friendly enough to appeal to novices and experienced golfers alike. Like most older course designs, the fairways are wide but the approaches aren't very forgiving. Water hazards come into play on over half of the holes and you might be surprised by a few subtle but tricky elevation changes. Mayfair Country Club is not a formidable test by any means, but there are a few challenging holes that will make you think.

Golfer Reviews
Terrible job with pin placements
I would say on average that 80% of each green is in good condition and 20% has some sort of issue whether it’s a fungus or dirt spots. This coulda been almost completely unnoticed if not for all of the holes being placed within 5 feet of the only problem area on each green.
If it were me, I would set the pins far away from the issues and not worry so much about having them all in a specific location (forward, middle, back) They were in forward position and that is def the worse position for the time being..
I noticed that the course is getting a lot of good reviews so I thought it was worth a shot. I would have to guess that the course must have been really bad and people are happy with the improvements because it was still missing grass on around 10-15% of the areas grass could be.
I did like the starter a lot! Very open course, didn’t lose a ball! That’s a plus. Not a terrible place to play for 30$ if you can get a good deal. Comparable to metrowest, stoneybrook(s), fairways, Kissimmee Oaks, casselberry and those types of courses.. Greens looked faster than they are but held a line fairly well.. Greens could really use a cut!
Really good time
Staff was very friendly course was in good shape greens and really good shape. Pace of play was a little bit of an issue.
Still a favorite
Greens were nice (mostly), fairway grass filling in. Nice carts with GPS. I like the layout & play here often.
Notify
If the course is going to have an event then advise. Had to play back 9 twice and wouldn’t give rain check. Front nine was over booked and wouldn’t have likely taken 2.5-3 hours to play front 9 even if they could have gotten me out.
Fun course...with flaws
I enjoyed my day at Mayfair, mostly because the course was lacking other players so pace of play was very good. Our group of 3 finished in 3 hours and 30 minutes.
The most disappointing feature is the lack of a range .They did have two very dilapidated, embarrassing hitting bays outside. Absolutely disgusting. The putting green was fine though.
The course conditions were only ok as there were a few tee boxes that were mostly sand, and few greens that were lacking grass in patches. Bunkers were in great shape though.
Overall it was a good day for the money.
Nice open layout
Tee to green was pretty good. A few rough areas but did not impact play. Fun and open layout.
Great layout and staff, but the course needs work
I have played here before, but the course has definitely changed since my last visit. Right now, the conditions need some serious work to get back up to par. That being said, I still really love the layout of the holes, and the staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. I hope to see the maintenance improve soon because this track has great potential.
