About Mission Inn Resort & Club

The family-owned Mission Inn is one of Florida's friendliest and most value-forward resorts.

Excellent Florida Experience

A very impressive overall golf experience. Beautiful facilities and course. The front nine was very slow but the group in front of us left after nine and pace of play picked up. A must play course in the Orlando area.

Course is nice, pace of play terrible!

On my visit to see my kids. My son treated me for a round that we both looked forward too. Course layout and condition beautiful, The pace of play was the worst I have ever been on in 48 years of playing! No ranger monitoring pace of play. We were a twosome, two many groups on the course and the two groups in front of us had no idea how to play ready golf. Consistently letting a hole gap in front of them We reached 14 after 5.5 hours, no joy. We picked up and left with 4 holes left. Expensive 14 holes. Maybe 6.5hrs may be generous!

Fun course

Pace of play was an issue. Golf course is very rough if you get off the fairway, but fairways and greens are nice.

Great course, but pace of play way to slow

Great course but pace of play was way too slow. It took us over five hours to play this course.

Course in great condition, pro shop staff not so much, pace of play - awful

Arrived with exceptional service from the cart attendants, headed to the pro shop where two unpleasant gentleman checked us in. Good practice facility with nice driving range and small chipping green with practice bunker. When time to check in with the starter, seemed a little overwhelmed, but directed us to the tee and we teed off on time.

Course was in great condition, loved the layout. However, our round took close to 5 hours and 30 minutes. I gather they set teetimes eight minutes apart, which is silly for a championship layout like this. Course condition, 5/5, cart attendants 5/5, staff in the pro shop 1/5, pace of play 2/5. Not sure if I’ll be back.

Course is in terrific condition. The hilly terrain and elevated greens make this course easily 1 of the toughest tests in all of Florida.

Mixed Review

Never played this course before and was anticipating playing it as numerous friends have told me it’s a great track. Good practice facilities before the round, clubhouse, cart attendants and starter provided top customer service. However, when I got onto the course I was surprised it wasn’t in overly great condition. If I would’ve paid the rack rate, I would’ve been somewhat perturbed, however, booking it through a hot deal it was reasonable value. Overall of 3 1/2 out of 5, with the majority of the 3 1/2 rating due to course condition not being up to other top courses in and around the greater Orlando area.
