..two in the top 100...

...from Florida. which is in the same club...
...that's something you rarely find even in Florida - Innisbrook, Mission Inn, PGA, Sandestin, TPC at Sawgrass and World Woods are the others...
...but Streamsong outshines them all, with three in the top ten!!!
The course designers Dave Harman, Isao Akoi and Phil Riston are hardly known, they have not created many courses, but here they have done a very good job.
It is a very extensive complex, you almost need a GPS to find your way around, but fortunately everything is well signposted.
What leaves nothing to be desired here is the practice area, a circular driving range - great!!! You can unpack everything that's in your bag here.
Great clubhouse, pro shop and a small lodge, they used it - you have to book early.
Two great golf courses are available, both with an average of 400 yards per hole and what is rather rare for Florida - blind tee shots.
Both are very demanding courses, requiring a very solid drive from the tee - if you carry less than 200 meters you're out of the game.
The shot into the green requires target golf, otherwise you almost always end up in the bunker - some have hit it and are very playable.
Panther Lake Course - doesn't quite live up to its name if you expect a lot of water in play, only on four holes - the lakes can be seen a little way off the course. Marginal terrain transitions, marginal fairway modeling, but several higher greens.
This course delivers more than 400 yards per hole from back tees - the rating 75.2/141 says a lot.
Hole 8 with its ten bunkers in front of the green is special.
We were not entirely satisfied with the course maintenance - it is generally good to very good - but there are a few problem areas. The greens were not freshly mown, so they were difficult to play on.
The Crooked Cat Course was in much better condition. The terrain transitions are larger here and the greens are several times higher.
The greens were excellent to play.
For us, this course offers the best hole on the course - hole 12, a par 5 - the green can be reached in two shots, but is difficult.
Overall, in our opinion, the Panther is the more difficult course to play, while Crooked Cat is the more beautiful visually, but very demanding from the tee.
The complex is very quiet, apart from the occasional noise from airplanes - you just have to live with that in the Orlando area!!!
We had to flip a coin, four or five stars.

Tips Florida court. Who has never played in Florida / Orland environment, could well start here. Everything what comes later is certain maximum equivalent...
Enjoy - we will come back safely.
