Falcon's Fire
Falcon's Fire Golf Club: Located just a stone's throw from the attractions of Walt Disney World, Falcon's Fire is another in Orlando's impressive array of excellent quality golf courses. Here, an abundance of glistening white-sand bunkers, stand out against well-groomed, rolling fairways and swathes of lush green semi-rough. Seriously penal, deep rough is not something you'll need to worry about at Falcon's Fire.
The front-nine should allow the nerves to settle and confidence to build, with much less water in play than on the back-nine, and relatively forgiving terrain as a landing area for those errant tee-shots.
The Falcon's fiery character heats-up on the back-nine, and especially the stretch of holes from the seriously pot-bunkered par-4 13th to the par-4 17th; throughout this stretch water is seriously in play. On the challenging par-4 16th you'll need to drive onto a tightish fairway, flanked by water on both sides.
With two busy roads skirting parts of the course, there is some traffic noise, but this is not overly distracting, especially once the quality and challenges of this very absorbing layout start to command your full attention. Falcon's Fire is a high quality facility with many great features, not least the picturesque Spanish-style, terracotta-tiled clubhouse.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
Must book in advance.
Golf carts compulsory; carts are fitted with GPS.
