Rating 69.7

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 greens

Greens were in great shape and the course played well. Some shots off the tee were tight so you have to hit good shots.

Challenging but fun

Great course. Tight fairways on some holes Felt the front 9 was tougher than the back 9. Staff was excellent. From check-in to Master Starter....awesome! Our first time playing there and both welcomed us to the course, brief history of the course and explained the layout.

Will be back!

Really behind schedule on tee times. Only complaint is we waited 50 mins past our tee time to be able to start. Other than that everything was great. Restaurant was great too

We are sorry to hear you had a less than exceptional experience. We didn't have any rounds finish over 4 hours that day, so we would love a chance to talk to about what we can improve on. Thank you for taking the time to write this review and we hope to see you soon.

Great deal and fun course

This course was in great condition, really awesome for a public course. Cool driving range and practice facility and a nice clubhouse resteraunt. No complaints at all about conditions. When I played it was windy and the pins were tough. Lots of sand and water but it's a fairly short course. Definitely tough my first time around but I feel like you can score on it once you get a feel. I'd recomenend taking less than drivers on most par 4s even from the tips. But a solid course to play for sure.

Very good course for money, short but challenging

The pace was slow. Green and fairway were pretty well maintained. A lot of fun!

Nice historic public course

This course is fairly well maintained considering the large volume of play it gets. One of the better public courses in the area but certainly not one of the nicest you can play in the area. As with the volume of play, the tee boxes are chewed up but the fairways and greens are in pretty good shape. The sandtraps are actually in very good condition.
