Tour Panther Lake at Orange County National, a top Orlando-area facility for serious golfers
WINTER GARDEN, Fla. -- The two 18-hole courses at Orange County National are well known in central Florida as two of the best options for serious golfers.
This facility, which also includes a nine-hole short course, The Tooth, has a totally different vibe compared to the many resort courses and residential community courses of the area. At OCN, it's nothing but golf, with a massive practice facility including a 360-degree driving range, plenty of short game area and a large clubhouse. The facility hosts the annual Demo Day at the PGA Merchandise Show each January, and it's also a former Q-School host among other professional and qualifying events.
Brandon Tucker recently played Orange County National's Panther Lake Course and brought along his camera. Also, be sure to read his review of the course at Golf Advisor.
