Mayfair Country Club
Rating Snapshot
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.

I like this course
I play here several times a year,,,,if it weren't for the cost of gas and tolls would probably play more. This is an olde school course but with wider fairways than some,,,newly paved partial cart paths are nice and so are the realitively new carts,,,still working out of a trailer awaiting the new building but that doesn't affect the golf...some water to carry but generally not that difficult of a course and the greens were in good shape
Enjoyable outing
Was an all around enjoyable golf day. From the friendly staff to decent course conditions to a good pace of play, I’m looking forward to coming back to play this course again.
Fun to Play
This course is a good value for the money if you go later in the day. The conditions are about average, and the course is fun, but not at full price.
Decent course
The course is better than it looks and more challenging than it looks. The layout does require some thinking before pulling the shot. Will play again.
The conditions are decent.
Donald Ross classic
Was really looking forward to playing this Donald Ross course. Was not disappointed!! Staff here are real friendly and very proud of their courses heritage. Had a great chat with the bagman who could have talked all day about the history and which of the greats tee’d it up here in the 1950’s
They say Ross’s courses offer easy bogeys but tough pars and this is no different - not a long course but some strategically placed overhanging trees make for tough choices off tees or shot shaping for approaches. Par 4 12th hole is standout with a long approach over water needed to reach the green. Also loved the 4th hole which needs an accurate tee shot to avoid having a tree block approach shot.
Loved my day here and look forward to returning - certainly worth a visit
Better than it looks
The course is indeed fun to play. It is more challenging than it looks. The condition is not bad, greens are very good. Will play again
Challenging than it looks
The course condition is fair, greens have no defects, just a bit slow, some fairways are in very good condition while some others may need some more care. The course is definitely more challenging than it looks, it was fun to play it. I would give it one more star if the greens can be rolled faster.
Completely Shocked
Take what you know about Mayfair and throw it out the window. This course has gained the reputation of cheap casual golf for getting hammered and hitting some balls. I gave it a shot again because it looked good from the road and wow it has earned my recommendation! Fairways are fantastic, greens are beautiful, and teeboxes are halfway decent. Now, is it worth $50 that they are asking for? No. The course still has a very wide open layout with rather dumpy layouts but all in all I would rather play a course with nice conditions and a boring layout compared to the alternative. Don’t bother with the range though. Well done Mayfair! New clubhouse coming soon too!
Great value
Course conditions and pace of play were better than expected
No play
Booked tee time and paid on line! Called day of play to confirm time! Was told that tournament was being played, no outside play!! How can I get my money back???? Thanks
Good Job
I played here several years back, and the conditions were poor. The course has vastly improved, fairways are getting sodded and filling in, greens are beautiful, and we now have real cart paths and new carts. They built a new bathroom, but it was kind of dirty (somebody needs to keep on top of it with a daily cleaning) It was a pleasure to come back and see so much getting done. I'll be back.
Casual golf course
To be fair, many of the fairways are in excellent conditions, although some do need more care. Greens are on the slow side, but they roll fine, tee boxes are average, pace was acceptable, staffs are very friendly, I was by myself, the starter let me tee off at 10. This is a course for some casual golf IMO, for those play more competitive golf or more serious, choose elsewhere such as LPGA in daytona or Nothshore in Orlando
