Mount Dora Golf Club
About
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.

Better throw Darts
Overall the course is in good shape post hurricane 🌀 Milton. Listen the course is not overly long but i guarantee you will have an opportunity to use every club in your bag. The staff is great. Chris behind the bar is a good one to talk to before your round with very good tips. The greens are in pretty good shape but depending on how diabolical the greens keeper is you better throw darts in order to hold the green. A very good day on the hidden gem of a course.
Better course Mgmt. needed
After losing 2 balls just off the fairways, several of the holes on the front had extremely poor pin placements too close to edge of greens. The greens themselves were in good condition. Fairways were just fair condition.
Great course for price
All the holes were challenging the greens were great very fast though
Had a good time
Great layout challenging greens lots of elevation changes
I was not expecting the fun and challenging layout must be accurate on certain holes to give yourself a chance at the small greens. Lots of elevation. Highly recommend playing this course.
The rough will penalize you as it is not manicured that well, but you’re not supposed to hit the ball there anyway
Will be back wish I had money to put into the course because it is a hidden gym that just needs some TLC here and there
Fun round very affordable
Golf
Staff always friendly!!! Played front 9 well.Back nine was behind a single player.Infront of him was a foursome.What ever happened to allow people to play thru? Waited fifteen minutes every hole.The twosome went back and played the same hole twice.They caught up to us waiting again.
Great staff
Friendly staff. Small greens interesting layout. Elevation changes on some holes.
cut grass near fairways and greens
Interesting course. Lots of elevation changes. Great scenery. Thick grass next to greens and fairways needs to be cut. Too much time spent on hunting for balls very much in play. Average golfers are not looking to play US Open conditions.
So slow
Play here whenever I am in town..Slowest I have ever seen. I quit after 15..Couldn't take it any more.
Sad!!
I’ve played this course ALOT! I know the weather has not been perfect but I’ve never played a course in such terrible shape! The tees are bad- the greens are horrid - the fairways have gotten so bad that you can’t find your ball - unless you trip over it!!!
I love MDGC - I appreciate the Vets who make this course work BUT!!! There needs to be a big improvement before I want to play there again!!!
Nice short course
Friendly staff and fairway and greens were on fair shape. I would definitely give it a try.
Enjoyed the Course
Greens are small, so challenging to hit. Some cool elevation changes. Good value for the money. Will definitely go back.
Ok for a quick round
Played on a Friday afternoon with few people on the course. Only took 3 hours 15 to complete. Greens were in good, but very slow. They’re still cleaning up after hurricane. Only negative was they turned on the sprinkler on 18 with people still on the course.
Improved!
Third time playing this course this year. Each time it gets better. For the money it's hard to beat and the staff is great. Kind of a throw back clubhouse. Tee boxes and greens were in great shape. Fairways good too. There's still some downed trees from the storm but nothing that affects play. The rough is that soft, fluffy long grass that can make it easy to loose a ball, Other than that the course is fairly simple and forgiving.
