Dubsdread Golf Course is a popular choice for beginning and intermediate golfers. Designed in 1923, it is the oldest public course in the Orlando area. The course is tight with a short, traditional layout that features "postage stamp" style greens that are heavily bunkered. There are also elevated greens that are slightly sloped. Dubsdread Golf Course's fairways are narrow and there are also water hazards that come into play on some holes. One particularly difficult water hazard comes into play on the 12th hole, which is a par 3 that requires a tee shot to a green that is well protected by bunkers.

Great value

First, let me say as you will see in just about every review the staff is over the top. Probably one of the nicest customer experiences that I think you’ll have any course in the greater Orlando or central Florida area.

Even though fairways had been aerated, it really didn’t impede upon your play or where the ball would lie. The greens are in spectacular shape, even though we haven’t had the typical afternoon rains. The course actually felt like they had been overwatering due to the aeration of the fairways. You still enjoyed a good off of a drive and the greens held very well.

If there was one negative to the entire course was the pace of play. Although we started off with a twosome in front of us and we were a foursome, we didn’t really catch them until probably the third hole at that point we realize that there were two groups of older ladies that were playing in front of them. I never saw a Marshall or staff. Member asked them to pick the pace of play up, they felt like they needed to put every single shot out and in one instance as we were stacked up on a par three they literally pulled out a measuring tape and measured how far one of the balls was from the hole . I certainly in love competition when playing with your friends however, these ladies should’ve let at least the twosome go through. If not, our group go through they held us up from hole four all the way through to 18. We did mention it to the staff that they needed to try pick the pace play up. I think that that fell kind of on deaf years. I believe these women were Locals that played there all the time and they didn’t want to poke the bear.

Overall, this is a great course. It’s a hidden gym in Orlando and I hope the conditions will maintain through the summer because I look forward to going back many times.

First Time Playing

Can't believe it's a public course.

I played here for my first time yesterday. Course is in great shape. Greens are the best I've been on in quite a while. Pretty cool playing a course that's celebrating it's 100th birthday especially knowing that Ben Hogan won a tournament here back in the 40's. I'm already planning my next tee time.

Tight and Challenging. Always in good shape

Dubs is an Orlando staple. The layout is tight and narrow and often times you don't need driver. If you are looking for a place where you can spray it off the tee, this is not for you. The thing I love the most about this course is that it is always in good shape. The greens are amazing, but don't get caught downhill, down grain.
