Mount Dora Golf Club is a historic, member-owned golf club open to the public, located about 35 miles northwest of downtown Orlando. The course began to form in 1945, shortly after World War II when returning G.I.'s petitioned the city for land to build a golf course.

A second nine was added in 1959 and the clubhouse was build in the 1960s. Set on just 85 acres, the course bills itself as "The longest 5,700 yards in Florida" thanks to an abundance of water and up and downhill lies that will demand precision over power.

Great value

Sunday afternoon, what can you say, went off the back nine and flew through really fast.

Front nine was brutally slow, still great value!

Best Value Around!

Course always provides excellent value to others in the area. It’s always in good condition greens usually run a bit slow but they roll true. Fairways and tee boxes can sometimes have a rough spot but for the value this course can’t be beat!

Great Find Off the Beaten Path

First of all friendliness second to none! Everybody there was polite and generous with their time and information. Met up with a twosome, which was an 86-year-old man in his 55-year-old son, and a single retired Air Force from Cincinnati Ohio.I too am from Ohio. Wonderfully challenging difficult course that brings trees and mounting into play on nearly every hole. Greens were not extremely fast but slipped enough that it could get you. Billed as “the longest 5700 yard course” they are correct as playing uphill, sidehill, and downhill has its challenges.

When do you want to get away from Orlando to the real backwoods country, and save substantial money while doing it, check it out. And too check out Eden Abby Brewery across the street for lunch and a beverage.

Good Value

Could use a little water like every place in Florida.

Greens are in good shape. Very busy on weekends but pretty friendly crew.

Not Great

This course is dilapidated and the staff was crotchety. I would won't be back. Also, they don't have a driving range.

Great value

Greens were pretty good, the fairways have suffered from the dry conditions but overall very playable. They have new electric carts this year and they are very nice. The staff was very friendly.

Fun

Fun historical course, short but small greens. Just l around 5000 from the tips, but if you’re not accurate off the tee, you can have a bit longer of a day. Greens were slow, but rolled true and price and pace were on point for a Friday afternoon.

The course has greens that run off on sides and front, sort of Donald Ross style . Greens putt true and receive a good shot well. Aim for center of greens.
