Disney's Magnolia Golf Course
Played On 02/17/2020Disney Magnolia- Average Course
Played the Magnolia course today. Only chose this course due to recommendations from friends who played it before. With all the options in Orlando, I probably won’t play this one again. They must have aerated the course recently, so the fairways were lined with grooves all the way down. Greens speed was average. Pace was a bit slow, but luckily the group ahead of us admitted they we slow and let our foursome pass. Customer service, like all Disney facilities were top notch and polite. Was very surprised that range balls were an additional cost. Other courses has practice balls included in the green fees. Due to the slower than expected green speed and condition of the fairways, the best part of the round was reading the trivia at each tee block. Give this course a chance. This was my experience on this day at this time of the year.

Played the sister course of the International the day after. Greens are definitely not true to the practice green. Much slower. I would suggest playing the course if you are on vacation and haven’t tried it before. I believe in giving all courses a chance at least once. Maybe after playing the International first and with it’s true green speed and conditions resembling my home course, I was expecting the same conditions but different layout. Overall, the staff, practice range and customer service was top notch. The course just didn’t meet up to my expectations.

Had a fun round of golf today with my wife. Got paired up with local Floridians who were trying the course for the first time too. Practice facilities were in great shape with Callaway range balls. Today the range was about an eighty yd walk from where you parked the carts. Can bring a few clubs or bring your bag. Only suggestion to the staff is to have some tees available next to the practice balls when practicing the driver as we did not bring our entire bag to the range. Practice green in great shape and speed is true to the course.
Staff greeted us when we drove up and they took care of everything. Complimentary valet parking. Check-in was quick. Refreshment cart was very visible throughout our round.
Course Marshall was also visible to check pace of play. Our foursome was a hole behind the group in front and we were encouraged to keep pace of play. Felt more pressure from the group behind but they were a threesome and were bombing their drives +270 yds. Realized that no matter how fast we played, they were going to breath down our necks. I’m a 12 handicap and usually finish rounds 3.5 hr/round at my home club but decided to enjoy the day with my wife and new friends as we are on vacation. At the end, we completed our round in 4hr 15 min. Overall a great day and look forward to trying the other course on site. If you plan to golf in Orlando, put this facility on your list.
