Useful information for visiting Highlands Reserve and Florida
When is the best time to visit Highlands Reserve Orlando?
If you’re keen to enjoy the Highlands Reserve golf course, then you’ll want to make sure that you have the best weather for spending time outside.

Summer is also the wettest season in Florida, so not the best time for golfing or exploring the attractions of Orlando such as the theme parks. Our advice is to visit in late winter or early spring when you’ll have pleasantly mild temperatures and far fewer crowds than during the peak season of summer.
