Details

Orange County National is home to two of Florida’s most acclaimed public golf courses with both offering distinct yet complementary challenges across a beautifully preserved 880-acre landscape.

Panther Lake spans over 7,295 yards from the back tees and is known for its pristine conditions, dramatic elevation changes, and natural beauty, with no houses lining the course. Designed by Phil Ritson, Dave Harman, and Isao Aoki, it features a diverse mix of holes winding through natural wetlands, pine forests, and oak groves. The course demands accuracy and course management, offering a tour-level test that’s both fair and scenic.

Crooked Cat, measuring 7,493 yards from the championship tees, offers a contrasting experience with a more open, links-style design. Also created by Ritson, Harman, and Aoki, it features wide fairways, bold bunkering, and large, undulating greens. The layout encourages aggressive play, especially on the back nine where risk-reward decisions abound and swirling winds can influence club selection and strategy.

Together, these courses deliver a premier golf experience that's both challenging and enjoyable for players of all levels—earning Orange County National its reputation as one of the top golf destinations in the Southeast.
