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."

Top class staff great course

I love the fact that they look after first responders and the military. The course it self is very decent challenge for all handicaps. The greens are quick and true. The staff are super helpful and make sure you have a good day. The carts have a gps course layout which makes shot making and club selection easy. I would play here again in a heartbeat.

Ok course and value

The greens were ok for central Florida. The layout was good, but nothing really memorable. This course has the worst and most uncared for bunkers I have ever seen. Nothing was raked on a Sunday morning. Grass and weeds filled the majority of the bunkers as well. Without bunker problems this would be a 3.8 with I’m going 2.75. I actually would recommend it if you can get it around $40. In my opinion bunkers aren’t that important, but these are terrible.

Nice Course

Red Tail offers a nice variety of very challenging to fairly easy holes. For the below average golfer, it presents the opportunity to keep your score in check and not shoot really big numbers.

Great course!

$35 - the price was right for the condition of the course. For instance, there are things growing in and around the bunkers :(

Sad cause it's a great layout...

Excellent track in bad shape!

No starter or ranger for a 4.5 hour round:) The fairway turf was in bad shape. Greens and tee box were in good shape, but for the price; not again. There are too many good courses in the are a for less.

Completely dead course bunkers are teerible

Played Redtail today. I have played it 6 times over last year and half. Worst I have ever seen it. Frost killed every blade of grass. Standing water everywhere. Bunkers looked like native areas. Staff told us bunkers were lift clean and place. Grad was only growing in the bunkers. 2-3 of the greens were trashed. Had sand in the middle of the green. Not worth the price. Range was open…. Should have been closed. No grass on the range at all. Not going back for a very long time.

Getting better

Redtail wasn't what it used to be, it's getting better and coming back. The greens were good, fairways good.

All the rain did it wonders. Sure beats dealing with that Jerk at Blackbear though.

Agree, this place has quickly become a total mess. A beautiful layout - destroyed by the usual clueless managers and know it all's.

Adios Redtail..

Another course ready for the grave.

Great Layout, Good, not great condition.

Will come back even though it is quite the drive. I like the layout and the staff and amenities are top notch. Course is improving. Sand traps need help.

Great value for money

Course has a nice layout. Tees were in good shape. Fairways good shape but off the fairways a little beat up. Greens were rolling very nice!!!! Great value for $50.00 in December. Pace of play was great. Played mid week around 9am

Redtail is essentially a dead course. Destroyed by fools who don't have a single how to manage and maintain.

Too many snob members over the years ruined this beautiful place. Its always the same..

Well worth a visit.

You can tell that this course was once a top track. The layout of the holes was great, the greens were lovely ( very fast and true) It just needs a bit of money spent on it to tidy it up. The Pro shop and Clubhouse were lovely too. Reasonable prices for a round. We will be back.

Almost back to normal

Love the layout. The course appears to still be recovering from Ian. The bunkers.need ALOT of work, Fairways and greens were in pretty good shape. However, will wait until spring or summer to return
