Best course in Orlando

I understand the fact that Disney World isn't exactly a place for a couple trip but the resort and golf courses are absolutely phenomenal. The actual resort at Disney without the theme parks is great for adults and couples. As we checked into are room at animal kingdom I asked about the golf and they told me that they golfing there is suberb.

Man were they right I made a 11:00 tee time the next day and I got to say everything from the course to the bar was perfect. The practice bunkers were great and range was amazing. The practice putting green was fast and rolled very well just like the courses greens.

On the course itself it was amazing and was right up there with one of the best courses in north Florida. There where lots of bridges which means there was lots of water. There where a good amount of forced carries and just hard challenges navigating through the course. It was one of those courses where you need to play it at least once to understand the course.

The bar and grill is a great place to catch the game and have something to drink with your buddies after your round. Best of all as you finish you can watch the other players on the course finish there round. Overall this was one of my most enjoyable rounds in awhile.

Nearly a great course

Being a Disney course I expected high quality. This was about 80% true but what really let the course down were the poor tee boxes. Little grass and plenty of sand. Disappointing ! Greens were true and fairways nice. Once ALL tees sorted it would be an excellent course.

If you want to play Disney, don’t play this one

The course was in bad shape. Lots of bare spots on the fairways and tee boxes. To add insult to injury, the staff treated us like we were widgets on an assembly line (except the starter). I travel to Orlando multiple times a year to play golf, and generally play Disney’s Palm course (which is usually in fantastic shape). If you’re looking to play golf at a really nice course, don’t spend the $175 cost of admission to play this one. Try Shingle Creek instead…a far better course for less money. If you want to (or must) play Disney, play the Palm instead.

Its Disney

Course is over priced in my opinion. Your paying more for the Disney name and not the course condition. Play was also slow we waited on the group in front of us for over half the holes.
