Crooked Cat at Orange County National

Cannot believe that they charge full price for it in this condition. Massive patches of invasive grass on every green, they look like maps of earth, the secondary grass is over a 1/4" taller than the actual green and makes putting a joke. Far worse than if punched and they're charging full price. Site says they are closing in may for a green overhaul, but they should have done in 2 months ago. Shame on OCN for not informing people and charging full price.

We played this course twice during our recent trip to Orlando. The staff is friendly and actively work to keep up the pace of play. Course is in great shape and the restaurant has a great selection of foods and drinks. I highly recommend.

The whole experience was positive. Checkin was smooth, practice facilities were great, course was in top condition. We played 18 on Crooked Cat, had a delicious lunch in the bar and then walked 9 at The Tooth course. Overall a fantastic day of golf!

Fairways/rough were great.

Greens par to subpar. Plenty of unfixed ball marks. There was a mix of another grass in the green. Looked splotchy. Balls would hop and skip on puts

Could hear Staff near by with walkie talkies, could hear other staff on the radio talking poorly about patrons who were on the course.

Fantastic complex with 2 great courses, friendly staff and great facilities

Awesome course , 65 dollars for this course was a steal

Awesome course, great conditions, pass was great until the last 5 holes

OCN is always in great condition when down from NY ! Prices have gone up some but still only plausible due to the great conditions !

Nice course and facility, but not worth the money they are charging.
Had to pay for range balls, wouldn't expect that at a high end course.
Nice layout but the greens were terrible,
Very disappointing for what you pay!

Crooked Cat itself was a fun track. The positive comments from me end about there. I left a rangefinder magnetically attached to the frame of the cart, and forgot to grab it when I departed the course around 6:20 pm. I called around 7:15 once I had realized I didn’t have it, and was directed to the central call center, which was extremely un-helpful. They couldn’t direct me to anyone. This would become a theme.

I had to call the next morning, and still no help. I talked with someone at the entire resort, but still nobody in the pro shop. After playing telephone with people who couldn’t help me all day, I decided to drive in and check the lost in found. Here, I went to the pro shop, and was “Greeted” by Nick. When I told Nick of my whole situation, the brand, color, time I played, etc, I asked if we can look at the lost and found. About as smug as possible, he told me flat out no. Claimed that he’s seen this before, and he won’t let me take a look. I was baffled, he said I can check with cart staff, so I left the pro shop to go check. Cart staff also claimed to not have it, even though I told them exactly where it definitely was and at what times.

So, I went to the pro shop hoping for a little help, and was treated very poorly and even labeled as coming in trying to steal a rangefinder. Given how quickly I acted, I have a hard time believing it doesn’t belong to a staff member currently. Their behavior in my time here backs that up as well. If
you go here, good luck dealing with Nick, and do not misplace anything of value.

This was my third time playing this course, and while I do enjoy it, the pace of play has been consistently slow. However, this was by far the worst experience—4 hours and 45 minutes for a two-ball is unacceptable. It’s clear they’re overbooking tee times, especially for four-balls, which completely disrupts the flow of the game. Unfortunately, I won’t be returning, as I don’t see the value for money at $150.
