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.

Need to spend more money on course

Our group has been to Mission Inn many times. We played Los Colinas the first day and it was so bad we rescheduled the second round and moved to El Campeon. Los Colinas fairways were very poor and tee boxes were purely dirt - little to no grass. Very disappointed.

We also played El Campeon. A very nice layout and in better condition than Los Colinas but fairways thin, tee boxes in fair condition, and green were in good shape. I will give them the benefit of doubt but another experience like this may be our last time there.

Snowbird

Overall not bad could use some improvements to some tee boxes and fairways but not a show stopper for playing it again. This golf course is a 45 to 55 dollars. Would like to see greens hold shot better but not bad. I will come back again this fall

Pace of Play

Pace of play can ruin any round. Our round took 4:45 as we watched the group in front of us putt out on every hole. There was a ranger, but he was intent on doing nothing. I can’t recommend the course based on this experience. I am a renter, and have to decide if I want to come back.

Try It You Will Like It

I have always enjoyed the the times have played there. Will provide you a challenge with some length of several holes; course was in overall good shape; greens solid and roll very well.

Great Place to Play

Staff and the course was amazing one of the best courses I ever played. I will recommend this course to anyone but it’s a hard one.

As Advertised!

The course was in great shape even with all the rain the night before. The greens were in great shape and the fairways were good. The course layout was typical of what you normally see on the courses on the west side of Orlando with plenty of elevation changes with some significant elevation changes from the tee box to the fairways as you would see in North Carolina. And this course sits right in the middle of a hidden gem resort so the amenities and clubhouse were incredible. I played solo so I can’t wait to come back and play with friends. Would definitely recommend to anyone. It is a bit pricey though, but worth it if you feel like splurging.

Great course!

Playing many Orlando area courses! This place was awesome, greens were quick, definitely need to be able to control your tee shots. Tough placement golf shots. Cart girl was around often and very friendly. Will play again Forsure!

Good course but waited on every shot.

Great layout, excellent condition, friendly staff but all of that is wasted if you have to wait on every shot.

Staff was friendly but needed to take action on several groups of novice or just poor golfers playing from the wrong tees and having no idea about the game of golf. They were out for a good time and didn't care about anybody else or the course.

Very nice course but very slow.

I dont know who figures the tee times but they need to have their head examined. I played as a single and there was a single behind me with a couple two somes in front of me and two very slow foursomes in front of them. There was also a very slow foursome behind us. One of the foursomes in front of us got mad because everybody was passing them. One lady could barely hit the ball. The course was beautiful and we had a $50 sandwich lunch but the pace of play was terrible. I drove 60 miles to try a new course that was "better" than I normally play but won't do it again.

Great course, pricey poor pace

I booked this course for my son and grandson while they were here visiting, 360$ for a nice course is the rate most upscale courses charge, The course was in great shape! greens fairways, tees!

However, the pace of play was way too slow 5hours twenty minutes just killed what should have been a great experience, we saw a marshal but he just drove around several times we waited 15 minutes on each shot and three groups on a par 3 hole in the middle of the round was totally unacceptable!

The golf course was excellent, how the pace of play will be enough for me not to return, a real shame.

Great people, terrible pace of play

Saturday round. Course in decent shape except for some tee boxes mostly dirt. Range also mostly dirt. The people from car to pro shop and one ranger we saw all very nice. But pace of play was awful. Teed off 1030, finished at 410. 5:40 minutes is unacceptable for a course this decent and no cart path only rules in place. Management should try harder on that issue. Beverage cart should let players come to them after making their shots not drive up to them in the fairway after they hit causing more delays. Simple fixes it would seem.
