Not as good of a layout as Crooked Cat but more playable. Plenty of room off the tee. See Crooked Cat review for comments on the service. No beverage cart on the course for the afternoon was a disappointment.

Skip (Greenwood, IN) says:
This is a beautiful facility. The course was excellent. They have one of the best pro shops in Orlando. Great selection and extremely friendly and helpful staff. Pace of play was slow on the day that we played. Some of the support staff on the course seemed unfamiliar with the answers to directions and questions. Because the facility is so spread out, most of us first time golfers at this course were understandably confused. The starter was not very friendly. We were told that there was a 30 minute delay due to "fog" when we checked-in. It ended up being a 75 minute delay. I would have thought that the starter would have been more friendly to improve the atmosphere.

This is without doubt our favorite course of the week we stay on Orlando!! Even with all out rain we loved the golf at Panther. Also played Crooked Cat in the PM and love that course as well (2nd to Panther of course)

Very disappointed that GPS is no longer offered and that the complimentary bottles of water was not offered. For the price, the new management is disappointing. These benefits are expected at the price we are paying to pay here. If not for the excellence of the courses, I would not recommend this for the value.

David (Akron, OH) says:
Course manager, more than two hours after we turned the carts back in declared there was major damage to one of the carts. None of the cart boys noticed anything when they were taking the clubs off the carts, no one came to find us while we spent two hours in the club restaurant, nor the next half hour while we shopped in the pro shop. And then the next day they threatened us with not being able to play our Sunday course unless we paid $400 fort he cart damage that we didn't cause.
