Rating 66.2

Winter Park Pines Golf Club has offered one of the most affordable rounds in the greater Orlando area since first opening in 1968. The course has a traditional design that is ideal for beginners though it's also great if you're looking for a quick, casual round. The par-70 golf course may seem odd with a par-34 front nine and a par-36 back nine, but the layout manages to blend together seamlessly. The golf course has short par 4s and par 3s of varying lengths. There is one par 5 that measures 462 yards. The first half of the course is especially scenic with mature trees framing most of the holes. In addition to the golf course, Winter Park Pines also has a practice facility available. It features a driving range as well as putting and chipping greens with a bunker.

Winter Pines

I want to start by saying any negative review of this course has to be taken with a grain of salt. The amount of traffic this course gets day to day it is truly a miracle it is in as good of shape as it seems to always be. I’ve played here dozens of times since moving to Winter Park. It’s always between 20-40$ depending on the season. It’s not the hardest course by any means but it is a good place for practice or to take out a rookie golfer. That being said the greens were in great shape fairways and the rough are more than playable and you can find your ball. Tip: Play a colored ball off the first tee if you hit right (range balls everywhere).

Friendly, welcoming, professional behind the counter

I’ve been noticing a trend of diminishing courtesy by employees I encounter at businesses I visit. We’ll what a breath of fresh air the gentleman behind the counter at Winter Pines was to interact with when my wife and I went there to play a round. I really wish I had gotten his name. He was awesome and his actions alone would be why I would recommend Winter Pines.

Go literally anywhere else

Do you like overpaying? Do enjoy 6 hour rounds of golf? Do you like horrible course conditions? If yes to all then this is the place for you. The only thing worse than the soggy muddy course conditions is the staff. Be prepared to be treated horribly.

HAPPY TO BE BACK AT WINTER PINES

Was worried that Winter Pines wouldn’t be the same after its change of ownership but we were very relieved. The price had gone up and trying to book online was as easy as before though.

The condition of the course was very good.

We were happy to see familiar staff members still there as well. Ie Cheryl and Mark to name two.

We are only here for a week but will be back in December for winter. Looking forward to golfing with family and friends at Winter Pines!
