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.

Tougher courses in Orlando

I’ve played at a couple different Orlando area courses and would definitely rank Dubsdread as one of my preferred courses now. First time playing here but I was impressed with the quality of the tee boxes, fairways, and greens, as well as the lay out/challenge of the course. Looking forward to playing here again.

Great value

got a hot deal to play here. $32 and the greens were as good as any in orlando. Fun layout, great holes, great greens. The carts has GPS and bluetooth speaker. Kudos to the starter Bill, what a nice guy who spoke to us and helped us along the day.

I would reccomend playing here especially if you find a hot deal and pay $32 as my group did.

Love this course

I’ve played this course at least 50x and I continue to play it again and again. Love the layout and enjoy everything about the course.

My only complaint is that I wish the ranger would get on foursomes that play too slow or player teeing it up from the tips that are clearly shouldn’t be playing this way. The ranger never show up and round was way slower than it should be.

Other than that, DB is a great test of your short game.

Old course, in great shape

Fun course to play, tees to greens in fine shape, putts roll true and fast. We had a very busy day, lots of waiting between shots, a ranger could help to move the pace a little.

Overall a good day, if you have not played Dubsdread, you should.

Wonderful Classic Style

What a wonderful course! Classic old Florida style. Short (only about 6100 yds at the tips), but narrow. Lots of water on the front, not so much on the back. Cart was in good shape, with GPS to the pin, front and back. Now don’t get me wrong, you will not mistake this place for one of the high end Orlando courses, but it’s in good shape from tee to green. The greens shapes are a little dull, but they’re free of disease and roll true. Absolutely loved my first visit to this course, and it will not be the last.

Not Cog Hill, but I liked it!

Always an enjoyable experience. However, I would like to know how many decades it takes to learn how to putt on Bermuda grass?
