Wet weather
Used cart

Sixsome and overcharged. No Disney magic for me.

Where do I even begin.... I was charged $74.61 at the time of booking and an additional $330.00 at the course so I paid for 5 rounds @ $75.00. The pro shop guy didn't seem to care when I mentioned booking on Golfnow and already paying $74.61. The course was wet but that was expected. What wasn't expected was the 2 "groups" ahead of us pairing up later in the round and becoming a sixsome and they played like you would expect a group that would join up like that (horrible). I even took pictures as proof of them playing as a sixsome. Player assistant showed up on hole 16 and acted shocked and said she would do something about it. This was hole 16 and our round was already ruined. Also, she drove by them on hole 17 and did not say anything??!!. Ordered a hot dog at the turn that must have been in the warmer for about a week., the bun was hard and the dog was inedible.

I expected so much more for $75.00 (actually $100.00) per round. The course was in good shape and was a nice layout but I will never come back and will advise anybody I know to stay away as well.

Disney I am sure does not care but they have lost my business and I would warn others to look elsewhere.

P.S.
I played Championsgate on Saturday and was thoroughly impressed by the course and staff

Sixsome and overcharged

To start the guy in the pro shop ended up charging me for 4 rounds at the course even though it should have only been 3. I have a charge for 74.61 and then another $330.11 for the full 4 rounds. So I ended up paying over $400.00. On top of that the 2 "groups" ahead of us were buddies who joined up once out of range of pro shop (I took pictures to prove this). To make things worse they were not good golfers and never even offered to let us play through. Player assistant shows up on #16 and said she would look into the issue. She drove by them on the 17th tee and didn't notice anything !!!!??? and why bother at that point the round was completely ruined.

Disney is already overpriced but I will never go back there again and will warn all of my friend to look elsewhere for golf.

Played Championsgate on Saturday and it was a very good experience.

Two thumbs up

Booked my round on Thursday and we got at least 4 inches of rain Friday into Saturday. Course drains better than any I have ever seen. 90 degree on all holes but one and they apologized and said they are working on it. Course was challenging and made you think and with the rain in amazing shape. Would recommend this to any average to above average golfer looking for a challenge
