Dubsdread Golf Course

Dubsdread has been around since 1924 and playing there is a bit like going back in time. And for me thats a good thing. It has an old Florida look and feel even though you are in close proximity to downtown Orlando. Mature oaks with Spanish moss hanging from the limbs always get me fired up about a golf course. I took a cart which was mistake. This golf course lays out essentially like a city park and everybody knows parks are for walking. Dubsdread is characterized by smallish greens that are well bunkered, but also allow for the run up. It can provide a challenge for better players but also be enjoyable for beginners. Don't be intimidated by the practice area....you hit floaters out into a lake. It's actually a lot of fun to hit balls into a lake on purpose. The practice area is a hang out for locals and tourists alike late in the day. After play make sure you check out the Taproom which is right behind the 18th green. Not that I know about such things, but it's rumored to serve the best cheeseburger in Orlando. Make your own game or show up and discover new friends. Either way, you'll be pleasantly pleased with a day at Dubsdread.

Conditions were really good but the pace of play was very slow. Greens were very fast. All said it was still a fun round and I will play this course again.

Had problems with cart on front nine not wanting to go but just barely moving for about a minute and then slowly pick up speed. Changed carts after nine holes but on the 15 th hoke cart died. Tried to call clubhouse but nobody answered. Told a passing golfer our problem and he said he would report the problem. Waited over thirty minutes no response. Tried cart again and went forward. Finished round. Never saw anyone coming to our aid. Poor service!

The course was in great shape. The layout was great. It was very windy and it felt like playing Pebble Beach at times. The greens were recently airriated but still rolled pretty true. I didn’t see a cart person selling cold beverages the entire round but we refreshed at the turn so overall it was a positive experience!

Course looked great, greens are fast as all get out, always look forward to avaoiding responsibilities and getting out on this course.

I have played this course several times and I always love it. Herman in the pro shop is always so very nice. Course conditions were good, but hole placement made this round a little more difficult. The greens keeper has a sick sense of humor.

The course is in great shape, it plays not as long as others but will challenge you. Lots of water and angles, figure out the placement and you will be rewarded.
Put this one on your list.

The course was in very good shape. Some maintenance here and there but not in the way. Quite a few forced carries over water so if you are timid about that you won't be too happy here. Greens were in great shape and very fast due to lack of rain and fast drying in the sunny days. I would HIGHLY recommend to the course to update your carts. The one I had had cigarette burns in the seat and the speed kept varying while driving on the cart path (or anywhere for that matter) from as fast as it would go (not very fast at all) to slow to full speed again. I thought about turning it in at the turn but decided to just keep it to finish the round. Just too lazy to move my stuff quickly to keep pace into the back. The other three guys had carts that were much faster than the one I got. But I do love this course (be careful of traffic when crossing the roads) and will be back when I can get a good Hot Deal.

If you enjoy golf don’t go here. Worst run golf course I have ever been to. Seriously don’t waste your time. If you have other choices take them go there.

Leave your Driver in the bag if you want to score low here. Lotsa of Out of bounds shots, and water. It is a beautifully maintained city course relatively short in total yards. Accuracy is imperitive off the T. I cannot figure this track out! Good luck!

Nice course, playable. Fairways were a little thin, but overall acceptable. Staff were great.

Course conditions were very good. Greens were in excellent shape. Lots of water throughout the course. Challenging but fun.

This course is fairly short, no driver needed for most holes. Fast greens and good fairways, make this a favorite and fun course to play.
Shot placement will reward you, a must if in the area.

No complains as far as the course condition. Fairways and greens both in good shape. Whoever cut pins the day I played hates his job or something. 15 out of 18 pins were 2-3 yards from the fringe. On a windy day, it made conditions impossible. I’ve never seen so many pins cut so close to the edge of the green.
