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.

Up and Down

Fairly short course with a classic design. Several holes go up and down a large valley, making it challenging and not typical of Florida. Small greens in good condition. Fairways and tees OK for these winter months. Friendly staff and a good value if you are looking for something different than a housing development golf course.

Almost perfect

Would have been 5 stars but 1 star was deducted for minimal bathroom facilities. There are 2 in total at opposite ends of the course not always accessible without considerable inconvenience. Sometimes nature calls at the most inconvenient moment so having at least one more in a more centralized location even if it was a porta toilet would solve this problem. other than that zero complaints

Good value for the money. Good length for different skill ability. Fairways a bit drier, as expected in this time of year.

Great greens

The fairways were typical FL public with extra short and weeds but definitely clear difference between fairway and rough. Layout was shorter but challenging. Overall worth the price I paid.

Great course, better than most in the area.

Fantastic experience. Great course with excellent greens. Been to other local courses where conditions are terrible. Greens are great and fairways are trimmed. Whoever is in charge of the course, is doing a fantastic job! Pace of play was great, finished in 3 1/2 hours. Will definitely be back here next gold outing.
