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.

First Time Playing

Fun layout course

First time playing here.

Excellent facility. Carts spotless. Typical old pro shop layout. Nice friendly staff.

As I parked a cart was driven up behind the car to collect me and the clubs. Very nice touch as being British bag drops always confuse us.

Having to pay for range balls was the only sore point. No mention of this when booking or when checking in. I was asked would I like to use the range, I said yes and was then charged even though I gave in Cadbury’s chocolate Just a small niggle but others should know.

The course has a fantastic layout. Some stunning holes.

Excellent for bird enthusiasts also.

Would definitely play again.

Thank you

Gordon

Good, but...

I played 8 rounds in 6 days in the Orlando area. Both courses are in great shape, greens are beautiful, but way too slow. Very disappointing. Many other options in the area that area better. Southern Dunes to name one

Good as usual

The golf course was in great shape. The greens were rolling medium speed and true. The fairways and tee boxes were well manicured. The course can get a little pricey, but if you can get a hot deal on tee off, go for it. You won’t regret it. Bring your a game or you’re golf crying towel, which ever you prefer. You’ll need it.

A great layout in excellent condition. Greens are the best I've seen in the 11 years I've been playing here. Friendly staff and good practice area. A day at El Campeon is always a treat.

Course is is better than best condition

The course is in the best condition I have ever seen it in. Greens were perfect. Anything putted from above the hole was impossible to stop within 5 feet. The layout is terrific,: elevation changes, forced carries, deep bunkers, short and long par 5s. The 17th hole is one of the best par 5s in all of Florida. If you have not played El Campeon now is the time to challenge it, if you have played it before- now is the time to play it again. Pay attention to the pin placements, you have to play all your approach shots underneath the pin- if not you better have a great short game and the ability to make 5 footers for par.

Outstanding Golf Course

The course was in fine shape, and El Campeon has one of the finest layouts of the 60 or 70 courses I have played in Florida, A combination of hills, trees, water, and sand produces many beautiful golf holes. The 17th hole, the Devils Delight, lives up to its name by the way. My partner, a championship flight golfer visiting from Wisconsin, absolutely loved the course.

Great course

This is not my first time playing this course. I always enjoy playing at Mission Inn, The staff is friendly and the course is in good shape all the time.

Tee boxes were slightly in need of repair, But that is due to players not fixing divots. My recommendation for anyone playing either of these courses is to read the greens. What I mean by this is are you going against the grain or with the grain, because that will tell you how you need to putt. Overall, I had a great time playing this course, there was a car girl out and like I said Stock was very friendly. If you get the chance to play here I would definitely recommend it.

First Time Playing

Los Colinas

Pick your tees carefully. Mixed white/gold. Would've been better for my group. Whites are what we played. Long par4's are tough. Short par4's challenging. Greens roll fast. Loved it!

Another great day on El Campeon

The course was in great shape. Everyone in the pro shop is always so nice. The practice area is the best in the area.

The greens were fast and true. Can’t wait to play it again.
