Orlando at Country Club of Orlando

The Country Club of Orlando whispers with the echoes of Bobby Jones and Walter Hagen, legends who once graced its fairways in exhibitions that cemented its early reputation. Set amidst the established estates of the city's heart, the course unfolds across gently rolling parkland, demanding strategic shot-making and deft approaches more than brute power. Expect to navigate subtle doglegs and contend with deceptively placed bunkers that can punish the errant drive.

Originally designed by Donald Ross in 1916, The Country Club of Orlando bears the mark of his genius. Fairways are generous but guarded, and the greens, though seemingly benign, present nuanced challenges to even the most skilled putters. Later enhancements by Ron Forse subtly modernized the course, honoring Ross’s original vision.

The club, while not a regular host of major championships, cultivated a membership renowned for its dedication to the game and commitment to preserving the traditions of golf. The club’s lore extends beyond the course itself. The club is a social center as much as a golfing mecca.
