Does anyone play "off campus" during Jan/Feb? If you do, which courses do you like? Thanx

We've played several times at Baseline off Basline Road in Bellview. It's a short but beautiful 18 hole course. 3484 yards, par 61. It's got a big waterfall hole played in the front and back on holes either side and has a "19th" island fun hole. We haven't been there yet this year, but the landscaping and conditions were always great. Plays more like a northeastern course than Florida course. It was owned by a professional hockey player, Arlie Parker. I presume he is still there. Lots of orange trees so you can snack with fresh tree ripened fruit along the way. Have fun.

We've played at Continental. I think its off Rt. 466A. Its in beautiful shape, and they have specials - I think it was tee off at 1:00 pm and paid $30 or $35 iincluded the cart.

El Campeon at Mission Inn in Howey-in-the Hills (about a 35 minute drive South thru Leesburg) Looks like playing golf in heaven.

There are even organized groups (dozens play each week) who golf outside TV at courses that are less than a 60 min. ride.

I think they play each Wed and Friday at various courses.

I played Stonecrest several times. Beautiful course, in great shape and slightly less price than TV.
Played Water Oaks and Miona Lake. Both a lot cheaper but very rough shape. Not worth the time spent.

You must have played Miona Lake a long time ago, play it often and is best bargain in area and in very good conditon. they also have discounted rate for Villagers

All of the above is good advise , But BASELINE is a must...Its cheap. close by and one of the most beautiful courses in the area......A mini Augusta.........

enjoy fumar
