Crooked Cat is a strong compliment to its sister course, Panther Lake. Awarded 4 1/2 Stars by Golf Digest "Places to Play", this 7,277-yard course from back tees has a distinct "links" flavor in its open, flowing design. This course features few trees, wide terraced fairways and native redtop heather grass in natural areas giving it a Scottish feel. Although a slightly different breed than Panther Lake, this natural terrain layout is just as beautiful...and dangerous as Panther Lake.  Crooked Cat back nine may be the finest nine on the property and a favorite among low handicap players due to its length and challenge - large sloping greens, steep sand bunkers and 50-foot elevation changes.

Orange County National Panther Lake is a course that deserves all the recognition that has come its way...voted Golf Magazine's "Top You Can Play" in the U.S., Golf Digest 4.5-Stars "Best Places To Play". This masterpiece is the first course ever to feature 18 signature holes, incorporating rolling hills - including 60-foot elevation changes as it winds through natural oak hammocks, pine forests, scenic wetlands and glistening freshwater lakes. Simply, some of the most tranquil, natural beauty any Orlando course has to offer - no homes or buildings.  Every hole on Panther Lake is unique and requires something different different from player shotmaking skills.  When golfers finish their round, you will likely be able to recall each hole vividly as they are all very different in appearance as well as appealing in design.  The variety in design is evident in the way no two holes play alike.   

Off the tee, players will face gently sloping fairways guarded by strategically place fairway bunker, trees and water hazards that frame the holes.  From the fairway, you will hit many approaches into well-guarded elevated greens, which are large, with plenty of coutours.  Simply put, good shots are rewarded and bad shots penalized, the hallmark of a great courses everywhere. Be sure to allow some time before a round to warm-up on what is recognized as the the "Best Driving Range in America" and a popular PGA and LPGA Tour Player practice facility.
