Enjoyable Roun

Great weather. Pace was nice, and course was interesting. Greens were much slower than what we were used to...so practice putting before you take off!

Great Round...bumpy Greens

Would score this a perfect 5 other than the fact the greens were bumpy and inconsistent.

Great layout, customer service and course. Exceptional value, and pace of play was good. Greens were a little slow, but for time of year we thought it was great.

Good Value, Lower Your Expectations

First, price was good. $35 for 18 holes including a meal afterwards, and staff was nice. After that there are not a ton of positives Course has so much potential, with great elevated views, and challenging holes, but to be honest it looks as if they have given up on maintaining. Tee boxes and greens were fair at best, fairway grass was spotty at best, and sand traps were ridiculous....no rakes, and it almost seemed as if they might have thrown sand in areas because there was no intention of trying to help grass grow.

Pace was very slow. We were told in the pro shop that there was a starter, but he/she must have taken off without notice. Although staff inside was nice, others playing who may/may not have been members were not...very difficult trying to determine when we were to start and after whom etc.

There were no rangers, and things backed up, but we were not in a major rush...the golfers behind us had no golf etiquette and kept hitting into us when it was obvious we were waiting on those in front of us to clear the green etc.

Several nice, short par 4s, but also a couple that are totally insane. Our booking included a meal afterwards...basically a choice between 6 different sandwiches/hot dog, side and soft drink. Service was good, and our food was great.

Tough for beginners....

We played the Sunrise Special, and the course first thing with the sun coming up is always amazing. This deal includes 9 holes with cart, bucket of range balls, breakfast sandwich and beverage, and another beverage after your round. For us it was a no brainer....we didn’t want to spend the cash for 18 holes, but wanted to experience the Disney courses. We are beginners, and from Arkansas....and haven’t seen green grass in a while, much less fairways that help your wedge shots, so this was refreshing. The only downside for us was the difficulty...maybe we just had a bad morning, but this course seemed much more difficult than any we had played (8 different courses in 4 days, including the Sunrise Special in the Palms, and walking The Oak Trail).

There were more bare spots etc on this course than we noticed on the other two courses, but it did not interfere with our playing, and we are not experts. As far as pace, we scheduled for first out, so there were no issues. Carts were so much fun with GPS units, and the staff was superb!

Would recommend with a few warnings....

#1 Staff & price were great. Pace was good...refreshing to have folks in front of us who weren’t very good, but not exceedingly slow. Course has so much potential as far as beauty of the Oaks etc, but it does need work. Tee boxes were very bare, and in some instances wasn’t sure if we might have just happened upon a hole that hD been totally forgotten as far as weed control etc. Very challenging for beginners such as ourselves.....bring lots of balls!

Great way to start the day!

First time ever walking a course, and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We were paired with a couple of super nice gentlemen, and it helped so much that we were all about equal as far as skill. Being from Arkansas, and normally playing on a muni course we found the lushness and wildlife refreshing. There were a few bare spots here and there, but for us it was a great experience. Rental carts are super nice, as is the driving range , pro shop etc.

Loved it!

First time playing a Disney course, and only second day ever playing golf in Florida. We played the Palm Sunrise and were the first off the tees so pace was never an issue. The staff from top to bottom was amazing. From loading our clubs onto the cart until cleaning the clubs and unloading them. Breakfast sandwich was very tasty, and these were by far the best carts we encountered on our trip. First time playing with a GPS equipped cart so that was a big plus. We found the course amazing, but note we normally play on a muni court in Central Arkansas, and we haven’t seen green fairways in months! It was pricey, but well worth it. We will be back!

Enjoyable!

Great weather equals a very busy Friday afternoon at this course, but we were still able to grab a last minute tee time. Big plus that we were able to play as a twosome since we are still beginners. Staff was very friendly, price was amazing, and we were impressed by the condition of the course and the layout. Pace was perfect. Will play again!

Great round with Gators Galore!

We were on our first golfing trip to Florida, and the wildlife did not disappoint. The gators were our highlight. Course was in great condition in our opinion...note we normally play in Arkansas, and we haven’t seen green grass in months. Pace was good, and course was lots of fun. Will play again!

Great Value

Spent 4 days in Orlando area and played 8 different courses. We are from Arkansas, so first exposure to Florida courses. We are also beginners. We were pleasantly surprised at the value we received for the money at Swiss. In general, the staff was beyond friendly, and in our opinion the course was in good to great condition. We were first off in the morning, so review of pace is as accurate as we can give. We never had anyone pushing us. We did note there was a huge crowd when we finished up. As far as amenities, don’t think they had “hot” food, just snacks, soda, water etc.
