About

Type Public
Par 70
Length 5354 yards
Slope 118
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.

Pace of Play is horrible

The greens were in rough shape, but it makes sense for how many people they book back to back. Pace of play is Terrible, be ready to play 5+ hours.

OUR WINTER GOLF COURSE

We have been going to Winter Pines since 2014 and will continue. It’s the only course we play while we are in Winter Park for the winter from Nova Scotia. We have yet to totally par every hole so it still obviously challenge us. The staff, especially Cheryl and Mark, make each visit very welcoming! Thank you all and hopefully we will see you next winter! FORE!

Terrible condition

What more an you expect from the pines. Greens were uncut and unbelievable slow. Sprayed green to cover over all the rough patches, don’t be fooled. Pace was slow due to a four some in front that kept searching for lost balls, pace was okay after the 4 some stopped after the front 9. Do yourself a favor and pay a little extra more $ for a course in better condition.
