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 track with challenging greens

Staff is great and got me off right on time. Course layout is fun with challenging greens. Great value for money. Compared to courses I’ve played in $75 it’s a steal.

Couse conditions so-so

I thought the course conditions were ok but not good. The fairways lack in grass, greens are nice though. The fairways are a little dangerous, they are so close to each other, it's not rare to have ball land close to you. Took us around 5 hours which is expected on a sunday afternoon but there are no marshals anywhere, saw a group of 7 playing the 18th and a group of 5 on another hole.

Good for the $35 range

This course had decent greens, a bit thin fairways. poor bunkers and pretty good tee blocks. The layout was interesting. All in all, I'd return at 435 or less.

Slow play

We had a great golf game but, very crowded ! They really need a marshal to hurry golfers up. Golfers in front of us (4) of them had very poor etiquette & would take sever drives & stand around on green & chat. Very annoying. Took 51/2 hours to play 18.

Not anymore

We had five carts in front of us waiting five carts in back of us waiting on every single Teebox. 4 1/2 hours to play 18 Holes Way over sold. Also letting people with pool carts is crazy. From last year to this year the course in my opinion horrible.
