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.

Not to bad

I was worried about this course after reading some of the reviews, but I’m not sure what the complaints are. I’ve played all the courses in Central Florida this winter. The course is in good shape. The greens were gray, and the fairways were lush. The roof was just the rough. I got a hot deal so it was worth the money. And compared to what other course of they’re charging it’s worth it.

Excellent

The course was very accommodating and super nice. I had made a mistake of our tee time and didn’t realize until I got to the clubhouse check in that I had already missed my Pre-paid GolfNow tee time. The gentleman at the counter said no problem the starter will help us out. The starter said that he would get us out shortly and was able to. The course is in excellent condition and a challenging course with all the elevation changes. Greens roll true, but can be fast down hill so try and place your approach shots. Would recommend to anyone who wants a memorable experience

Practice Area Needs Help

Great course. Fun layout but highly dissatisfied with the quality of the practice range. It was all sand from heavy use. Signs asking to hit from inside the ropes but everyone moved back about 5 yards just to find some grass to hit from. You would expect much more quality at the rates charged.

Also, it was a 5 hour round with a slow threesome in front of us and never seen a group in front of them. Ranger needs to monitor this a little better.

Overrated

Very slow five hour round, four dollars for bottled water, six dollars for 12 ounce can domestic beer, fairways and tea boxes average. For the price way subpar and overrated. Better courses for better prices are out there.

Meh.

Course was in rougher shape than I’d expect. Lots of bare spots in the rough, lots of divots on tee boxes and in fairways. Greens were fast and true.

Challenging layout with small fast dramatically contoured greens. Narrow fairways with lots of overhanging trees. Shotmakers course.

Pace of play was horrible due to 8 minute tee times, no starter, or ranger for el campion course. Lots of foursomes and not getting paired with anyone as a single.

Restaurant was expensive and messed up order. Ordered a club wrap and got a Caesar wrap instead. Also $18 for a Cuban sandwich and fries.

Course allows ride-alongs but charges a cart fee.

Conditions Could Be Better

Overall the facility is very nice and the staff were extremely courteous. The layout was good, but we found the conditions to be sub par. The fairways lacked grass in many places throughout the course. The bare lies in the middle of the fairways detracted from the experience.
