Atypical of many Florida golf courses, RedTail Golf Club is a links-style layout dotted with 100-year-old oak trees and azaleas among its rolling green fairways. Designed by Dave Harman, who also did Shingle Creek Golf Club in Orlando, the course features four lakes with water coming into play on the last five holes. Holes 14-18 work their way around the largest lake on the course, while the finishing hole's approach shot plays over another body of water in front of the clubhouse. Located in rural Sorrento a little more than a half hour north of Orlando, RedTail Golf Club prides itself on catering to "members only."

Great Design poor condition

The course is a good design. Bunkers were not all maintained and the greens had dead spots. Fairways were sketchy. Basic golf.

Long tight course!

Overal the layout was great. Lots of holes that were long, some were tight, others were pretty wide. Nice scenery.

Agree with this comment. This place used to be really good, but in the last 5-7 years, its become another Florida dog track.

Would never go back after multiple tries.

Adios red tail.

Worth the trip

Course conditions typical for Florida in winter. Grass sparse on fairways and tees spotty. Greens were great once you got accustomed to speed. they were fast, extremely so down hill. Will definitely go back.

Good but has been better

Great design. Fast greens but so many weeds on the greens. I have played multiple times in the past. USUALLY this track is in better shape. Still great fun to play as the natural surroundings are just outstanding. Price for this time of year is very reasonable. Still wish it was in better condition.

Love layout! That being said, golf carts really took all the fun from golf.At least five times carts warned too close to green area when one foot from cart path.Had to push 3times before they would restart.Need notice on screen as what to do to make them run again!

Love this course design

This has always been a great course with tees for every level of player.

The design is excellent. Scenery is very picturesque.

Course conditions have been better but hopefully will improve.

The finishing hole stretches uphill over 450 yards from the back tee, 350 from the forward tee, with a second shot that has only some room for error.

Clubhouse and patio have a great view of that and tons of seating outside with a nice bar inside.

The houses built on the property vary from multi million dollar homes to very high end.

Red Tail is getting better. Greens still need some TLC but worth the price in comparison to other central Florida courses

Conditions

Our regular group of 6 played. Was first rime here for 4 of us. Had 2 tee times but ended up playing together as we were the only ones on the course. Tee boxes are shot as are san bunkers and fairways. Greens are just ok if you consider all the " crab" grass. No regular cart service had to order using GPS in cart. Drinks were brought out in plastic bag with no ice. Coolers on carts had no ice. Nicest carts ever cushy seats and all but how about putting the money into the course?
