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.

Good value course, not the most pristine I’ve seen but a shorter course with some tough holes and some decent variety. Super friendly staff and got paired up with some very friendly gents making it a very good overall experience. Will be coming back again.

Staff Are Jerks and Course Is Average

I grew up on this golf course. My parents still live on one of the fairways. For over 30 years, this course had a reputation for being an average course at an average price - nothing more than an opportunity to get in some swings at municipal quality course. There's nothing interesting about the course, and the course quality is average.

In the last two months, I've been twice and, each time, the staff are jerks. Rude, dismissive, and confrontational over minor items.

This time, I arrived on time for our tee time, only to find that the first tee was clogged with a back-up for golfers. Then, while waiting, we all got lectured by an older man, who is power-tripping on his "ranger" title. We teed off 45 minutes late and slowly dragged through the course behind a slow 4-some. Behind us, we had a three-some that would not give us clearance to play, including once teeing off and hitting our cart.

The staff are rude jerks, who cannot properly run their course. Also, I had to prepay $2.99 on GolfNow, but the staff didn't recognize that and charged me the full rate. Also, none of the staff members wore masks (if that's important to you).

In sum, the course is average, the staff is below average, and I won't be going back.

Watch your valuables around staff

Had a decent round, conditions were average but for that price it was fine, however my rangefinder was stolen off my cart, I’m fairly sure it was a staff member who took it, so I would keep an eye out while golfing there.

This course is really nice and has a lot of good looking holes

Overall I really liked the course but the only complaint i have is how popular it is, there were so many people here it made the pace a little faster than I like but overall it was good and fun.

Greens are not ready

The greens are not ready to be played on. They must be fixing them or aerating them. Course is usually pretty good.

Too Crowded

This was a Wednesday tee time of 11:45. This is a short course, but it still took over 4 1/2 hours to finish. No ranger around when the group in front decided to spilt up. Which really slowed the game down.
