Mount Dora Golf Club

First the fairways need to be over-seeded you had to roll you ball to find some form of weed are maybe grass to hit off. The tee boxes are beat up need to move there and repair . Now the bathrooms were closed one out of order and the other locked that ok for some younger golfers but our group in there 70,s not so good when i called the pro shop the lady said i thought they were fixed . I asked why she didn't make us aware just another poor response . Some greens staring to have some issue .

Fairly nice course that needs some work but still not bad. As with everywhere people need to learn golf etiquette and let single faster players play through. Other than that it really wasn’t terrible. Just needs some improvement to be a very nice course.

i LIKE THE LAYOUT AND AS EXPECTED THIS TIME OF YEAR WOTHOUT MUCH RAIN.

Made a last minute decision to get some golf in on Sunday morning with some friends. None of us have played this course before and I booked this based on reviews online and pricing. We typically play about once a week around town and range in handiaps from 10 - 23. We are used to various courses with different course conditions so a shorter course isn't a detractor to us.

The good -

The greens were in very nice shape but they were "slow" compared to most greens around the area. Yes, they rolled true but if you are used to putting on moderate to fast greens it will take some time to get used to these greens. They are challenging with various mounds and overall size but for people who like to be rewarded with the skill of putting on tricky, speedy greens, this may not be your cup of tea; you definitely had to hit it to the hole because flying the ball to the hole would not work as these greens are firm and will propel your ball into the rough.

The bad/ugly -

There really is no rough to talk about and it is rough, inconsistent and even more penal than typical courses with traditional rough (ie, grass) around the green. If you miss the green you are dealing with very uneven, inconsistent lies and likely going to frustrate you especially if it has rained a little the day before.

Fairways were pretty spotty with grass and it was difficult on some holes to find some spots in the fairway to hit from even when finding the fairway with the driver.

All in all it was an "ok" experience; staff were friendly, drink prices were great, but there is no practice range to loosen up, just a putting green and small chipping area.

Not sure if we would go back but if you are new to the game and want to get out and not have the round break into your wallet, this could be a good option as there are a lot of walkers, beginners and mix of other locals out there.

No bev cart or rangers on the course so pace of play could get tricky if you are playing late morning, early afternoon.

This course has been underrated. Greens were in great condition while the layout is challenging. The fairways need some help but decent considering the lack of rain.

I’ve played this course before and it’s still in decent shape. The greens were in good shape, but a little slow. Fairways were a little dry. Compared to other courses they have watered the course to keep it reasonably good considering the drought.

This is an old school course with small, domed greens that are difficult to hit and hold.

Greens roll smooth and true. At 8am with wet greens and they still roll 9+. Fairways, tee boxes, and greens in great condition. Course isn’t the longest but the experience is worth it. Staff friendly. Only downer for me is there is no range.

Definitely worth a return visit!

Fun old course that’s always in decent shape but the greens are small, fast and difficult to hold.

Decent value for the $ cart paths rough manny crowd greens.

Looks are deceiving --Greens were diabolical with slopes-Know next time to add a little behind swing-- Putting was true and fairways were very playable--Cudos to staff--Reminds me of a Donald Ross design !! Will return ASAP

This course was in rough condition. The greens are normally challenging but right now they are all but unplayable. The greens were sparse and would not hold even the slightest putt. We were catching up with balls rolling 10 yards off the greens. Not fun.

This is an old municipal course with lots of weeds in the fairways and roughs. The greens are all domed and small. The course layout is potentially dangerous as was almost hit several times by golfers playing other holes.
