Is anyone familiar with the courses in Orlando?
We are taking our son to see the mouse the first week in December. It looks like there are 2 36's and an 18.
I will only have time for 1 location.
Which is a "do not miss"?

I posted the following after going to Florida in February.  I don't think Turkey Lake was great, but its certainly on par w/ Bevier or Fairfield.  Most importantly, it is very close to the land of the mouse! It will be a easy get away and return if you are anywhere near the magic kingdom...

...Got a chance to play Turkey Lake in Orlando and Melbourne.

Turkey Lake is in a very nice park that costs $2 for a person or $4 for a car to get in.  There is an assortment of activities such as camping, picnicing, fishing  etc.  The disc golf course has 36 holes.  I played 23 of them.  They seem to be in the process of relocating holes to make room for the new ones. It was not marked all that well and I spent a lot of time walking in circles trying to find the next hole. The discs sure don't skip off the sandy terrain.  I was 7 up after 23 and most of you know my game.  An intermediate player would be even or better.  Its not a very hard course.

I played Turkey Lake and Barnett about 5 yrs ago. Turkey Lake was only 18, and Barnett was better, at least at that time.

Could I possibly play any worse if I didn't practice putting??

Barnett has doubles on Sundays at 2pm. Sounds like a winner.
