Mission Inn Golf and Tennis resort is located 30 miles north of Orlando, just off the Florida Turnpike. There are two 18 hole championship courses here, El Campeon, designed in 1926 by Charles E Clarke of Troon, Scotland, and Las Colinas designed by former PGA Tour Player Gary Koch. El Campeon is the one to play, the Las Colinas course is more typical Florida type golf with water, sand, flat land while the El Campeon is rolling hills, tree lined fairways, with some very interesting and challenging holes. The courses are immaculately maintained with the El Campeon having an elevation change of 85 feet, and is routed through stands of mature trees, lakes, and protected wetlands. The Las Colinas course is more wide open, maybe a bit of links style with plenty of bunkers off the tee and surrounding the greens, in addition to plenty of water. If you're in the Orlando area, it's worth your while to include a 36 hole day here.

fantastic change in elevations from tee to green, something you just do not see in Florida, the fairways are fairly narrow and the greens are medium size. This course will really test your shot making abilities. It is located in the Mission Inn Resort, the place has great accommodations and its very picturesque. Last time I played it it was very windy and keeping the ball in the fairway was nearly impossible. Try out the course you will not regret it!

Played the Old course, thought the conditions were a little spotty, greens were OK, but the fairways bare and with weeds in spots. Enjoyable layout though, not typical of Florida designs with hills and large northern type trees. Very tough layout, try playing from shorter tees.
