Eagle Creek is a public course in the Lake Nona area of south-east Orlando, inside the Eagle Creek residential community, a short drive from Orlando International. Its pitch is a British look on Florida ground. American architect Ron Garl worked with Englishman Howard Swan, and they gave it more than 60 white-sand bunkers, bulkheaded water edges and compact greens. It is a convenient first or last round of a trip, because you can reach it from the airport without going near the theme-park traffic.
Eagle Creek Golf Club green fees and tee times.
Tee times are on the club’s TeeItUp booking page, linked from eaglecreekorlando.com, or by phone on (407) 273-4653, extension 2. The club does not post a rate card; prices show on the tee sheet once you choose a date. Every booking needs a name, email, phone number and credit card. The card is charged only for a no-show or a cancellation inside 24 hours, at the full tee-time price plus tax. If fewer players turn up than booked, and you did not change the count 24 hours ahead, the group pays for the missing golfers and receives a rain check, valid for 90 days. Register at the golf shop at least 20 minutes before your time. The 4 hours 30 minutes pace target is enforced, and marshals can move a slow group.
The round, in perspective.
The course is a par 73, with 36 on the front nine and 37 on the back. It plays 7,196 yards from the Black tees, with a rating of 74.1 and a slope of 132. The White tees measure 6,841 yards, the Yellow 6,362, the Blue 5,875 and the Red 5,305, so there is a sensible option for most groups. The club says Garl drew on the forms of old links courses and mixed in Florida waste areas. Swan, who founded Swan Golf Designs in 1987 and is known for work in countries with little golf history, brought the compact greens, rectangular tees and bunker shapes of British courses. The club’s course page also says Eagle Creek was the first course in Florida to use Mini-Verde grass on its greens, and it holds Audubon International’s Silver Signature status.

Make the trip work.
Each player needs their own bag and clubs, so ask for a rental set when you book if you are not bringing yours. Carts are for golfers only, with a limit of two per foursome; friends, coaches and non-playing partners cannot ride along. Food and drink must be bought from the club. The 14,000 sq ft clubhouse, built in a New England manor style, has locker rooms with showers and The Belfry, a 120-seat restaurant for lunch after the round. The practice area has a two-sided range and a practice hole with bunkers, and the Golf Academy at Eagle Creek runs lessons.
The club is at 10350 Emerson Lake Boulevard, Orlando, FL 32832. It is one of the closest public courses to Orlando International (MCO), and the club itself describes it as minutes from the airport. Disney and the International Drive hotels are around half an hour west by car, depending on traffic.
There is no hotel at Eagle Creek. The hotels around Orlando International and the Lake Nona area are the closest beds, and they suit an arrival or departure day. Golfbreaks pairs the course with the Meliá Orlando Celebration, which puts you nearer Disney and the courses south-west of the city. For a multi-course week, a base near Celebration or Lake Buena Vista keeps most other drives short.
Make a trip of it.
Eagle Creek sits on the eastern side of the Orlando golf map, so it pairs neatly with a travel day. On the same trip, Orange County National in Winter Garden adds a 36-hole public complex with its own lodge, and the Disney courses or Celebration Golf Club fit the days you are near the parks. If you want something away from golf, Lake Nona’s town centre is close, and the Kennedy Space Center is about an hour east.
Find your season.
Central Florida’s best golf months run from November to April, when days are dry and mild and tee times are in most demand. From June to September, expect heat, humidity and afternoon thunderstorms; early tee times are the way to beat them. The club sets its hours by daylight, so call the shop for the first and last times on your dates.
Yes. It sells public tee times on its TeeItUp booking page and by phone on (407) 273-4653, extension 2. You do not need to live in the Eagle Creek community or be a member. The club also runs frequent-player programmes for local golfers.
How far is Eagle Creek from Orlando airport?
It is close: the club describes itself as minutes from Orlando International (MCO). That makes it a practical round on the day you land or the day you fly home, with clubs in the car.
What is the cancellation policy at Eagle Creek?
Cancel or change at least 24 hours before the tee time. Inside that window, or for a no-show, the card on file is charged the full price plus tax. Short-show charges come back as a rain check valid for 90 days.
