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.

Greens are good
Greens are good, pro shop is being built so expect parking lot construction. Fairways need more grass lots of dirt and sand but overall good experience and the value is good. Will play again.
Great course for the price
Now it’s no Augusta, but I really enjoyed playing here. Only issue I had was the pace of play because there was a very slow foursome in front of us, but that was not the fault of the course.
Practicing Golfer
Enjoyable course layout. Variety of both difficult and easy holes lengths. Tee boxes and fairways above average condition. Greens are in good condition with plenty of contour. New clubhouse & pro shop are under construction. Driving range is closed during construction. I will definitely play again.
Course
Course looks good, greens were solid, fairway was mostly solid. No complaints, course was solid. Played here many times and it looks as good as it ever has.
Will be a great local course once they have their bar/clubhouse up and running again in less than a year. Right now it’s a golf and leave place. Before, and hopefully again soon, it will be a golf and then hang out type place.
Mayfair Golf Sanford, Fl
Greens lightening fast. Course continues to improve.
Love all the work they are doing.
What they need is a cart person as missing huge opportunity to sell drinks and food. Also a ranger for those who move very slow
Priced right-Needs course and hole layout signs
Club house under total rebuild however very workable presently. Greens are good condition - little slow. Roll smoothly. For someone who doesn’t know the course, there are no Signage anywhere. GPS on cart shows yardage only. If you don’t know the course there are no layouts to show how the hole is played out. Nothing on the scorecard to show layout. Course needs signs with hole layout. Car attendants were great. Friendly and shared critical information. Course is priced correctly.
Needs Work
Course is in bad shape and is way too expensive for its condition. Fairways are some of the worst I've seen. They most tee boxes were not good, very bumpy and lots of dandy spots. Greens were in decent shape but were rock hard and very fast. Hope they turn in around since it's a good layout and a nice challenge. I would wait until they complete the clubhouse and put some money back into the course.
Turf conditions
The tee boxes and fairways are bad.
I know we have come weather, but the fairways were dry and bare. Run the irrigation.
Can’t wait to see what the clubhouse will look like.
COMPLETE TRASH
This place isn't worth 20 dollars let alone 40. Dirt patches all over the greens, dirt patches all over the fairways, if you can even call them fairways. AVOID THIS COURSE AT ALL COSTS!! PACE OF PLAY WAS HORRENDOUS, they have the nerve to have a sign that says "No outside alcohol" but then don't have a cart girl. Terrible waste of time.
Mayfair Country Club is Ok
The course hosted a PGA tour event in the late 50s. It is old school. basically straight holes with small undulating greens, mostly raised from the fairway requiring you to fly the ball to the green. The day we played the greens were heavily sanded. The bunkers were inconsistent and muddy. Several holes had water hazards in play and forced course management decisions from the tee and on the approach. The oak trees were fantastic. The fairways were not in good condition.
Clubhouse under Construction
Finally construction has started on the clubhouse. I believe the course is still feeling impact from Milton. Tee boxes and certain fairways need some TLC. #4 really needs fairway help. The course is still playable.
