About Mission Inn Resort & Club

The family-owned Mission Inn is one of Florida's friendliest and most value-forward resorts. With two golf courses, including the century-old El Campeon layout, it is an ideal setting for buddies trips and, at about 45 minutes from Orlando International Airport (MCO), remains convenient to reach from afar while removed from O-town's occasionally chaotic energy.

Best Course in FL

This course is in top condition and the layout is tremendous. It feels like you’re somewhere up north with the elevation and beautiful hills. Favorite course I’ve played in the state.

Wow!!

Ok, this is the best golf course I have ever played. Friendly staff at check in. Course conditions were excellent. The nature is incredible. The drive between holes is so peaceful and interesting. We felt like we were only people on the course. Granted, it was hot as heck and 2 pm in afternoon but it was so peaceful. I would play again even if it was packed and it was a 6 hour round. Seriously, everything was fabulous. Love the course layout and greens were spot on. Ok, play this course now. You won’t regret it.

Aerated Greens

Course was nice but did Not know it had just been aerated. Going to need a few weeks to recover.

Great Course Layout

This was a very fun course. This course really helps your driving game to be better. Greens were great. I had a lot of fun. The only issue I thought hole 14 or 15 was a little unfair. Hitting a par 3 236 yds and tree branches are in front of the green. Loved playing here.

Atypical Florida Course

Speedy greens In great condition. Good fairways. Nice unusual layout. A golf ball eater. Lots of water. But very few courses in Florida have hills and valleys with two club differences. Yesterday they are frustrating, but ultimately very fair, and fun. Don’t take the short yardage for granite. It plays a lot longer.

Over priced for the condition of the course

The condition of the course is very adverage so to me it's a bit over priced. Also, the pace of play was horrible, I sat a tee at every tee box.

It’s like playing a PGA course

Amazing. The greens roll so well. The fairways are like carpet and it looks fantastic to stand on a tee box and look at the other holes. The course is beautiful.

Great day

Course was great. Greens had been seeded a few weeks earlier we’re in good shape. Tees and fairways good also after the round went and had food and drinks with Genna the bartender and she was great. Food was great and rest of the staff a pleasure we really enjoyed the day and definitely will be back

A TRUE GEM

This is a must see on your stop of golf courses in Florida. The facility is geared for you to stay and play with your friends or loved ones. You'll find tennis and golf everywhere. They have two amazing top notch courses in tip top shape. I have been playing these courses for 40 years and always consider them one of the best.

Easier

Played last Sat , weather perfect. Both courses are tough, however…

The new owners have removed a buncha low hanging, golf ball catching limbs. It has made it 2-3 strokes easier, yippee. The greens are perfect, fairways close to perfect, and rough brutal on some holes. We are making a few putts now, and my son made a 40 footer for eagle on #14 El Campeon. He beat me again, whoops. We had a great time.

Great Day of Golf

Course was good, greens were aerated and a bit rough as was parts of the fairway. Pace of play was good, we kept moving well. All in all look forward to playing again. The Downside, they are strict on NO COOLERS, however, they have zero cart service, and we were all dying of thrust and in need of a snack by the time we were at #14. Don't know why there isn't any cart service, if you play take lots of water with you because it isn't available on the course.
