Located just 45 minutes north of Orlando, Mission Inn is one of Florida's most treasured golf resorts. For a limited time, GolfPac Travel and Mission Inn are offering a unique summer package with nightly deluxe accommodations, unlimited same-day green fees, and all-day shared golf cart. Truly a golfer's paradise, the resort features two championship courses with some of Florida's most dramatic elevation changes. But it's not just all golf, as you'll also find great tennis facilities, fishing and boating on Lake Harris, and more.
About The Hotel:
Located 40 minutes northwest of Orlando, Mission Inn, a privately owned Mobil Four Star resort offers a unique blend of casual elegance, good service, and world-class recreation. The resort is one of Central Florida's truly intimate getaways. The hotel is a sprawling, Spanish-colonial hacienda with arched verandas and red-tiled roofs. It offers tremendous views of the resort grounds. It also features two championship courses — El Campeon and Las Colinas.
Although the resort is within easy driving distance of all of Central Florida's tourist attractions, resort guests really never have to leave. Besides great golf the hotel amenities include three restaurants and lounges, boating and fishing on Lake Harris, tennis, and swimming.
Meetings & Conferences
Mission Inn boasts a large Conference Center. That, and the extensive facilities and amenities on-site, including the two championship golf courses, make Mission Inn an obvious choice for a corporate meeting or incentive outing.
About The Courses:
- El Campeon
"The Champion," is one of the south's oldest and most historical golf courses. Architect Captain Charles Clarke of Troon, Scotland, blended the unusual elevation changes of more than 85 feet with features of traditional golf design. Rolling fairways, undulating greens and well-placed creeks, large bunkers and sandy waste areas, as well as water on 11 holes are what you can expect at El Campeon.
- Las Colinas
"The Hills," built and designed in 1992 and designed by former PGA Tour player, Gary Koch, Las Colinas offers a somewhat different challenge from El Campeon. Las Colinas is a wide open layout with generous fairways, gently rolling hills that are a little reminiscent of the much misused links-style tag. The greens are large, undulating, and often faster than they look. Water is in play on 14 of the 18 holes and again, large creeks frame many of the fairways. Las Colinas is a quiet world, a natural habitat with abundant wildlife.
