The Country Club of Mount Dora

We went there to have lunch and see what the atmosphere was. It's a cute small place , with a small bar . The sitting areas are divided into two spaces one with table cloths and cloth napkins I am assuming for the members and for "guests " silverware wrapped in paper napkins and wooden tables. As we walked in a nice center arrangement greeted us. No direction shown where the restaurant was , so we walked a bit visiting a bathroom which was very clean . Then we stumbled on to the gift shop and finally to the right a bar where a very nice old lady asked if we were there for lunch . We could pick any table we wanted . After that a young lady brought the menu . The selection given is limited to only a few choices. Choosing a salad and a burger with a chicken noodle soup as an appetizer we waited .....a bit . We were the only guests there at that point , the lunch rush was over , so the place was peaceful. As our food was brought I noticed that it came from a tiny kitchen . The salad was delish topped with cranberries and walnuts and vinaigrette . And the burger was typical the 10 fries that it came with were from a bag so nothing special. As we enjoyed our lunch soft music was playing in the background . No one came to sell us a membership no one asked any leading questions. And it was perfect. The one time a nice young man came up and asked if we needed our drinks refreshed. That was cute . The waitress was attentive not overly so. Which was nice ! We enjoyed a nice quiet lunch . Thank you .

This course was a little more on the expensive side. I rented clubs and they were very decent clubs. It was a challenging course without being too punishing. I like the conditions. Very well kept fairways and greens, overall great experience.

Played here yesterday in our league and exactly 2 days after Hurricane Ian hit Central Florida. Wasn’t expecting much in the way of the course being in good shape and figured some would be Catt path only. Boy was I wrong. This was the best shape I have ever seen this course and I have played it many many times. The tee boxes were great. The fairways were in top notch shape. The greens were incredible and rolled very true! Excellent shape all the way around the whole course. Don’t know what they are doing but keep up the good work guys cause it is tremendous.
