Howey is responsible
for great golf far
from the maddening
crowds of Orlando
Yes, it’s a funny name for a town. Yes, it’s a little far from Orlando. And yes, you should definitely play El Campeon at the Mission Inn. William Howey, one of Florida’s first land speculators, bought this piece of land set in the central highlands of the state, in 1916 and dreamed of a horticulture empire. The Depression and historic freezes wiped out the citrus and the bank accounts, but not before Howey had built a hotel and a golf course in the hills.
