Mount Dora Golf Club

From my understanding this golf course was designed and established in the 1940s to support our veterans in the area. The course reflects a very old and short municipal layout of back and forth holes where there is very little separation between Fairways and often times people are playing their t-shots from three Fairways over. It's very slow, and the entire personnel and system appears to be antiquated. It seems that the people want to keep things the way they were from the 1940s. There is no driving range. There are zero amenities of any kind including a restaurant to possibly have a lunch following you around. There is a screen room off of the back that is filled with smoke and regular drinkers. You might be able to order a premade hot dog wrapped in foil from whenever. For the price, explore other options in the area.

Finished the front 9 in 2 hours which is reasonable but in this case it wasn’t. Get to the 10th tee and there was 4 groups on the tee box and 2 on the hole so six on the hole. Played 10-11 in about an hour and get to 12 and the tee box is 4 deep again. The group in front of us quit and played the 18th hole and we followed them. 5 hour round brewing maybe more

I thought it was a really good course. Greens were more like I am used to in Ohio. Fairways are in really good condition. A lot more elevation change than you would expect in Florida, I was pleasantly surprised. I recommend you give this course a try.

Rex made us very welcome at the checkin.

Really helpful & Chris in the bar was sound.

Great layout and pace of play was excellent. Finished in 3 and a half hours. Will definitely play again.

First time playing here and will come back. Greens were a bit slow and appears they have been working on them to keep them up, not aeration just some spray. It has some challenging shots so hit to the right on 5 . Overall I would play again and recommend to others to play a round.

Rex in the shop & Chris at the bar are very helpful & attentive.

Nothing was too much trouble.

Back nine are the gems.

Thoroughly enjoyed playing this attractive course. The staff are welcoming and the course was not too busy. Perhaps a few more food choices would help.

Great value for your money. The staff was friendly and the layout was fairly easy. Some of the greens were not up to standard but a fun 5700 yds reguardless.

I have just got back from the UK where golf is a serious business, so thanks to Mount Dora for reminding me that it’s really about having a great day out and having fun with your friends!! Don’t get me wrong Mount Dora as a test of your golfing ability is as good as it gets, small greens , tree lined. up and down terrain . The course is in excellent shape the best I have ever seen it add to this the wonderful friendly staff that make your day an amazing experience not to be missed. Where ever you’re from you won’t be disappointed in the way you are welcomed here I am a scratch golfer and have been for many years have played with some of the best players in the world. and the most important thing I have learned is it’s supposed to be FUN so if you’re looking for a fun day out and a good test of golf give this place a try. Don’t forget after your round the bar here is terrific you’ll feel like family. Finally just to say I don’t work for this golf club I just love playing here I live in the UK and just wish our golf clubs were as much FUN. ,!!! Hit it straight. Roger 😀

Nice course, fairly challenging. In nice shape and nice carts. Busy, so a bit slow in season.
