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 layout needs work

In the process of improvements. Layout challenging, not a grip and rip it courses, you have to think about placement. Lots of trouble to get into. Fairways tough, yspotty, greens ,some better than others. Free replays. I would play again just for the challenge,

Good value

Had a great time playing here. Course was in pretty decent shape. Looks like they are improving and should continue to get better shape. I would recommend playing here.

Christian at the pro shop was the man.

Burgers from the restaurant are spectacular.

A decent course for a very reasonable price for the area.

Green speed was a bit slow

Other than that, it was a great course overall

The grass quality seems improving

Especially, the view of the golf course was amazing!

All workers are so kind!

Greens and tees are overseeded, greens are slow. The layout has always been a good one!

It is a far cry from the old Redtail that was one of the best courses in the area. It is still in rough shape but they are trying! You play the same layout you always did and is a good bang for your $. Pace was super fast and the beer cart is around lots! Good deal for the money you pay!

Great layout

I’ve played the course many times over the last 10 years. I’ve seen a lot of improvement over the last thirty days.. Tee boxes are good, greens are much better and the fairways are playable but need some work. Beautiful scenery and a great layout. Great value from a price perspective.

Course needs work

Course was an awesome layout, made it worth it, too bad the course condition is not great, I know about the water system going out in the summer of last year so I know they’re working on it, hope to see this course improve

Great Layout still, terrible shape

This course was in great shape the last time I played it and my expectations were high, only to be very disappointed. The course was in horrible shape with the fairways being full of crab grass, the greens were in sub par shape, and the 7th hole was closed. I played well despite the conditions but I will say the conditions probably cost me 1-2 shots. Disappointed sums it up, i will say pace of play was great and the carts are some of the fastest I have ever been in. Potential is there but the up keep needs to happen.

Very Saf

I wish I could say the course is getting better but the management refuses to put any money into it. If you see any stars past a 2 it is a lie from course management.. do not be fooled. This place has no repeat customers. This course in the past was a wonderful place, the layout is one of the best in Florida.

Good layout in bad condition.

Unfortunately, this course is in poor condition both the fairways and the greens. It is a very nice layout in a beautiful community that needs a lot of work to bring it back to its good days.

Nice layout

The corse is laid out nicely, but the greens were just awful on this day. They had not been cut in days maybe even weeks and they had weeds on them and it was very difficult to putt from anywhere on any of the greens and the tee boxes were not real good either

Terrible condition

Although the course in itself is nice and good layout, it is in terrible shape. Everything needs mowed. The tee boxes need mowed and the greens were just horrible.

Hole # 7 was closed due to water which obviously they have a drainage issue on the course.

The carts were nice though, and a nice paved cart path.

I will however probably play again because there was almost nobody there and I was able to take my time and enjoy the best part of the course which is the scenery. I could work on my game and wasn’t rushed. But that would be the only reason.

I don’t think it’s worth the money for the condition it’s in right now so hopefully they will do something about that.
