For those of you golf enthusiasts, taking center stage in this land of year-round sunshine are 36 holes of championship golf. Boasting rare tee to green elevations of 85 feet, towering forests and sparkling, spring-fed lakes, these spectacular courses are memorable no matter what the score. Revered as one of Florida's finest, El Campeón, "The Champion," was designed by Charles E. Clarke of Troon, Scotland. The course, which opened in 1926, is ranked in the top 10 of Florida's 1,400+ courses. Las Colinas, "The Hills," was designed by former PGA Tour Player Gary Koch. The course opened in 1992 to a nomination for "Best New Resort Course" by Golf Digest, giving it immediate recognition. Traditional golf design and extraordinary gifts of nature only begin to define the golf experience at Mission Inn.

Lake Harris alone is a 13,788 acre fresh water lake and, through a network of locks, canals and lakes, provides boaters with access to the Atlantic Ocean.
