Orange County National Golf Center and Lodge

Course was in great shape. I definitely play it again. I like how every hole looked different. You approach shot better be on point.

I’ve played this course probably 50+ times the last 10 years as a local. Course conditions are great but the greens are very rough. Not sure why, but looks like someone was using a broken mower on a number of holes. You can perfectly see the lines of where the mower tore up the green all over, and lots of brown. Probably 40% of the greens are brown. I’d guess they rolled about an 8 speed on 6/30 when I played.

Other than that, the fairways and rough was excellent. This layout is one of the best in CFL! Hopefully they are able to get the greens back up soon. I will say, it can be expected this time of year. OCN uses the summers when mainly locals are playing to do maintenance and as a result, have a tendency to let green conditions fall off a bit.

I’ll be back as I always am, just may wait til closer to in-season when they get tournaments being played to head back out.

Course wasn’t in great condition. Greens were furry and really, really slow. Tee box grass was not mown. Fairways were in good condition but not firm.

Range was in bad condition. basically hitting out of sand and rough.

Not really a fan of the course. Maybe was the tee set up but hit the same club into every par 3 but one. Trees come into play on shots hit in the fairway on many holes.

One of the best courses in Central Florida. I loved it and will play again soon.

Loved every minute of this course, was a lot of fun and in great condition. Can’t wait to play it again when I return to Orlando

Was an amazing fun course to play. Was extremely hot out side but still had a great round.

Crooked Cat is in really good shape. Tough on a windy day. I think the restaurant is ground under repair.

Great track. Played much longer than what's on the card, not sure that course length on the card is accurate. Highly recommended.

Treated nicely at bag drop and in pro shop. Practice green good. Starter was pleasant and we got off on time. Greens good. Fairways had some brown spots from the heat but overall good. We'll worth the price.

Played Panther Lake with some buddies at $65/person resident rate from GolfNow. The course was awesome and in great shape. Really can’t think of any detractions and look forward to coming back to play Crooked Cat.

Panther Lake has a great mix of challenge and forgiveness so I think it’s suitable for intermediate to advanced golfers. Beginners might find some of the holes long and about half of the holes are such that if you hit an errant shot, don’t bother looking for them because the foliage is too thick.

Super fancy clubhouse and setup on the way out to the course. Staff was nice and quick with my check in. Had to pay for range balls so no warm up for me lol As for the course, it was tough! Greens were actually slower than I anticipated, especially on a high level course like this. Overall, the course layout was challenging and it was not a “fun round” in terms of my play. The group in front of us was sloooow. Four guys and they all seemed to be novice golfers. As for me and the threesome I was a part of, we were waiting all day. Nonetheless, not the courses fault! Check out crooked cat if ya get a chance, it’s a tough spot!
