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.

First Time Playing

Short but fun track!

In town on business and had extra day so course was close and good price. Took 10:30am single tee time and got paired up with father, son and best friend. Good guys and had fun regardless of skill levels. Starter was awesome in explaing as this was first time playing. Track is short even from blues bit was perfect for me to.work irons. We maybe waited on 1 hole entire day. Greens were fast and got faster. Beverage lady was personable and attentive. Finished right at 4hrs. Did not use the restaurant but it was very busy so must of been a solid 19th hole.

Great Course

Dubsdread is tight until the back nine where it begins opening up after the 10th hole. Small greens. Course is in good condition and a great value for the money. Beautiful course in a very nice neighborhood. This is a must play whenever we are in Orlando and one of my favorite courses there. The staff is friendly. Good restaurant (with great hamburgers) in a stand alone building onsite.

Surprisingly good condition considering the volume of rounds this course gets.

Greens were good, traps well maintained, overall good conditions.

Range is dry and dusty but there are mats.

Restaurant is a must for after round beverages and dinner.

Great First Time Experience

The introduction at the pro shop was excellent. He told us what to watch for and pay attention to. This course is in a neighborhood...I like that. The greens and fairways were in great condition. Restaurant is a bit pricey for my taste.

Narrow and crooked

First time playing the course, not long but narrow fairways especially the front nine, really a true test one has to learn how to play this course. Was very frustrating for the first time but can be a fun course if you learn how to play it. Back nine was much easier. Greens were in excellent shape but needs focus and good ability to read greens. I will definitely be back with a strategy on how to play. Out of bounds everywhere. Overall a very good experience

Would definitely play again

The course is totally different from front nine to back nine. Front nine is very tight, where the back nine is more open. Greens were in nice shape and were fast and true. Tee boxes on some holes need some attention, but overall the course is in nice shape.

Herman, behind the counter was extremely friendly and had great advice about the course. He helped set the tempo for what ended ip being an enjoyable round.

Next time I am in Orlando, I would like to take another shot at this course as it was a bit of an off day and the wind was pretty strong.

Fantastic course for a municipal course!

Hackers

Unfortunately too many slow playing hackers always end up here playing from the tips. I was lucky to be paired with some cool folks and made the best of it.
