Back tee course

Course is on the way back. Greens were slow but in good shape.some idiot put the pins in awful places 2 feet either way would have made the difference between challenging and plane stupid.similarly tee box markers often placed on the only downslope? Evidently not a golfer.
The lack of good signage..
Still great layout especially off back tees.
Staff might have some reason not to be too welcoming but I’m on my holidays and want to feel like I’ve made a good choice..

Paradise lost

Nostalgia ain’t what it used to be.
There is something up with the fairways I think it just that it has been so wet that my irons were curating and slicing neatly. Like Seamus Heaney’s grandfather cutting turf in Toners bog. It would have soiled my day had I let it.
Locals know not to play this course if there has been a spell of inclement weather.
A beautiful walk all the same.

Thank you for playing Celebration. We are sorry to hear you were not thrilled about the course conditions while you were here. The weather was brutal for a few days. With that being said, we are glad you were still able to enjoy your round. Hope to see you soon.

This course will be fine . In time. Great condition of fairways and greens makes up for the fact it is a building site. It is set up to be an easy scoring course and thank you for that. Can’t fathom why they don’t use white stick markers for sight lines and 150- not everyone uses gadgets and the sticks add something useful and traditional.
I’ll be back.

Mystical Phoenix

I am so glad to see this course getting back on it’s feet .Of all the many courses that I have played in and around Disney, this one has been the best value for money and terribly underrated.
The sloping fairways and not so forgiving greens give variety and challenge - too often lacking in the neighbouring more heralded courses.
I found the greens today fast and smooth; the tee boxes don’t look as great as they should - but hey if that’s how you judge a course- we play different games.
I’ve played Sunday and Monday and got round fast .
The staff have been charming and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this Phoenix rising from the ashes

Reasons to be cheerful

I have been travelling to Florida for family holidays for a dozen years . I couldn't contemplate missing the opportunity to play this course- come rain or shine.
A thing of beauty is a joy forever. It really is a beautiful walk- lined by picture postcard ?empty homes. Full of wildlife too.
It's challenging for a 10 handicap dad who used to be better. Maybe too many of the excellent greens are flat - which is kind but imo less fun than it should be.
Pro shop ladies and starters are delightfully engaging.
Booked again (golf now) before flying home to the daily grind.

A thing of beauty is a joy forever

I'm a reasonable golfing dad who has thoroughly enjoyed playing his way around his 192/us27/I4 vacations for the past 10 years.
I've played 7 courses in the past 10 days and I can see that the recent weather and the nematodes have made for tricky course maintainence.
This is a golf course for proper golfers . It's a tremendously well thought out course - lovely to have to hit a long iron over water on a few of the par 4's . The par threes are memorable.
Some other courses look too manicured , some give you free bottles of water suncream some GPS and driving range balls- none of this blinkers me to -the lack of thought in design. I will play this one every time I'm in the area.
I'd hope that the owners push this course to look and play as it was created rather than have it wither on the vine. Even the beautiful need touch ups.
One unnecessary charge is the riders $26 fee .Mercifully the excellent pro shop staff handled a difficult situation well today.
3 more rounds then it's back to the daily grind - I'll book one of them here at Legends for sure.

Thanks for your review! We're excited that you enjoyed our course's challenging layout, designed by Arnold Palmer. We're working with new management to get the conditions back up to par, and we appreciate you still seeing the beauty in our current less than perfect conditions. Please come back and play again soon!
