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 value for money course

Amazing value for money. Great layout and course condition pretty decent. If I’m being critical, greens were slightly ropey in parts but still putted well

First Time Playing

Beautiful layout

Beautiful layout with elevation changes and challenging greens. Many tee box options as well. Some of the greens had bare spots which was the only “downer.” Definitely would return and recommend to anyone.

Thieves

Slow pace of play, greens still way below average.

Worst of all my son left his range finder in the cart and we called 20 minutes later and they said they couldn’t find it and they have no cameras on the cart drop area.

Thieves. Don’t go there.

Red tail

Delighted to play this course again. Forgot how challenging it was. Need to be able to hit relatively long and straight for a few holes. Lots of danger. Hidden water. Look out on 18. Thoroughly enjoyed our game here, friendly staff too. Thank you guys.

I would play here again!

Fun track, it was a little rough last year, but it seems to have come back! Fairways are lush, but cut a bit thin. Greens have a few blemishes, but roll nice.

Atrocious

The greens were blotchy with bare spots all over some we were putting on or through mud

The fairways were strewn with various weeds and different grasses and the rough was unkept and horrible sad because we have played here when we come to Orlando for years

Course is coming back!!

Such an improvement from the last time I played this course. So many improvements it’s hard to grab a start point. Greens 100 percent better - not perfect but but very playable and fair. Fairways and tee boxes so much better condition. Thank you to the owners and managers for making this all happen. This a beautiful golf course layout and just wonderful I can put it back on the play list. Staff has always been friendly and professional. Definitely will be back and I will tell everyone I know how much the condition has improved

Course in good shape but....

some of the greens need some work and there are water hazards that were not there the last time I played, I assume the water is the result of runoff from all the new building going on so you will need to keep the ball straight on those holes. Challenging course from the back tees.

Good Long Day

I guess we are now experiencing the beginning of the snow bird season. We had to wait on every tee for at least 5 minutes or more. However, the course was in good condition even with the usual casual water on some of the holes. This was what I call a good long day of golf close to 5 hours. Probably could have had a Marshall on Tuesday to help with the pace of play.

Greens aren't bad

The greens aren't as bad as people are making them out to be. They were bad in the spring/early summer. Grass was thin in some places on the greens, but completely playable. Still the best course in that area. Certainly better than paying that a-hole at black bear. Course layout was great, was great, fairways were good. Greens weren't perfect, but very playable. Good time as always at Redtail
