Panther Lake Golf Course, part of the grand Orange County National Golf Club & Resort in Orlando, Florida, has what many Floridians consider to be the best golf in the state. OCN offers two separate courses, with Panther Lake presenting the greater challenge with its more narrow fairways, dogleg configurations, and greater interference from hazards. No two holes are the same at this gem.
Visually, Panther Lake stuns even the most traveled of golfers on account of its vast array of offerings. From the rolling meadows with scattered pines and native wetlands and lakes, to the sometimes dramatic elevation changes, Panther Lake serves to satisfy and astound any eye.
Each unique hole of the course presents a different challenge, forcing the golfer to adapt to conditions and layouts. Using every club is not out of question since the course rewards precision more than strength. Well-placed strategic fades and draws are preferred to meandering mammoth drives. The meticulously manicured undulating greens of Panther Lake Golf Course insist on keen vision and flawless execution, which should be the case of any championship caliber site.
Once embarking on the back nine, many may recall seeing the tenth somewhere before, and for good reason since it was showcased in a Nike commercial with none other than Tiger Woods not long ago. So play knowing that the best player in the world has attacked the very same fairways and greens.
As part of Orange County National Golf Club & Resort’s tremendous offerings, guests of Panther Lake can enjoy a host of amenities and other facilities. To round out its courses, OCN has a 9 hole short course, perfect for those time-restricted occasions or novices. There are also several onsite instruction schools. OCN is also the home of America’s largest driving range and practice grounds, so there is no need to worry about reserving a time before setting out on the course. A fully equipped clubhouse and onsite lodging round out this golfing center’s extraordinary offerings.
