The Legends at Orange Lake Resort
About
Orange Lake Resort & Country Club in Kissimmee boasts four different golf courses, two championship courses and two nine-hole layouts. Undoubtedly, the most popular course is the Legends. This Arnold Palmer-designed layout is like getting two courses in one. The front nine is a traditional links that is wide-open and windy, which makes club selection particularly challenging. It is a good warm-up for the even more demanding back nine. On the backside, you will be playing through mature oaks and towering pine trees that border the lush, winding fairways. It is quite a feat to successfully maneuver your tee shots through the narrow openings of the trees, which gives it the feel of a course in North Carolina. The signature hole is the 13th. This daunting hole features a large green that is shielded by a rock wall, surrounded by tall grass, and protected in back by a sand trap.

Legend!!
From the time you pull up the staff are friendly and helpful! The course was in good nick, pity the greens was a bit on the slow side, but that’s due to all the rain. Overall great experience playing the course for the first time!!! Company was also world class
Worth the time.
Nice course. With all the great courses in the Orlando area, I think I've been spoiled. This course is worth a try. Not the best course in town. But not the worst by far. In good shape. Nice layout. With all the rain, the greens were slow. Looks like an overall nice resort, with 54 holes of golf, lots of condos for rent, and a pool and water complex. Probably a great place to take the fam and relax for a week or two.
Great Course!
I was on vacation in the area and brought my clubs to play some golf while here in FL. This was my first time at the course and I will coming back. Great condition! The greens were amazing and the entire course was very well maintained. They also have plenty of practice bunkers and a driving range. Very good bang for your buck. Very friendly course will all types of par holes.
How do you get 7 hour rounds!
Go to this golf course and try and keep your emotions watching those in front of you playing at a snails pace, from the wrong tees and on Saturday! Know that it is public is not a solution, people need to consideration for those who are playing to a reasonable pace. Slow play is the most annoying part of the game. Please help!
well they expect 4.5 hours
nice course good condition
we played later to try and get around quite quickly and did the first 7 holes in one hour
unfortunately the next 11 holes took 3 hours and 20.
A beginner three ball in front and a two ball in front of them were cutting the course to shreds, would not let us thru, and were not wearing shirts
I complained at the end but they were totally not concerned saying our target speed of play is 4.5 hours, and that at this time of the year there is no ranger.
with that regard to speed of play i won't be back. In general golf and in particlar this course has little future with this lack of concern for peoples enjoyment.
Good challenge
Course was excellent, greens were good almost great but were top sanded ball still rolled true though maybe a bit slower. Overall still very good & will get better in the coming days.
Good course, clubhouse staff not as good as others
Out in Florida playing a few different courses. The course wasn’t bad in good condition and with the selection of tees different skill levels were able to enjoy playing.
The starter was very friendly, Unfortunately compared to other courses we have played the welcome bag drop etc when arriving and finshing left a lot to desired.
The bar staff were good
Good condition
The course was in pretty good shape, had not played here in about a year. Disappointed with legends restaurant as 4 of us sat down and after 5 minutes no one acknowledged us. The place only had about 10 people in it.
Legends of Orange Lake resort what a great course
The fairways were in great shape and the greens were excellent ball rolled nicely. Very well-kept course. Staff was very helpful. I will definitely be going back again .
Great Course
The greens were punched about 30 days ago but were in good shape. A little inconsistent in terms of speed but overall good condition. The layout of the course was very enjoyable. Could hit a variety of clubs off the tee. We went out at 4 pm on Friday evening and had no one in front or behind us so we got done in a shade over 3 hours. I would highly recommend the course to anyone.
Good course. Worth the money.
Nice course. Good layout. Greens are shaped nice makes you think on your approach shots. Today the greens were painfully slow but I hear that’s not normal. Courtney inside was courteous and more importantly efficient. I will definitely play here again.
Great course greens recently punched
Course layout and conditions great but greens recently aerated so that was a bummer but with nice greens this course would be a must play.
No informed
Course was great but the greens been hollow tyned and coved in sand .think I should of been informed about this before I bookedwas very disappointed with the greens .loved lay out of the course
Legends at a Orange Lake
Great layout. Challenging holes. Worth the play. Not far from Disney. Kudos to the new team for bringing the course back from the poor conditions created by the prior management.
Great Course & Layout
Third time playing this course in the past three years and the conditions were probably the best so far.
Played an early morning around so there was no holdups whatsoever.
Course has a moderate driving range, chipping area and practice green.
Personally, I really enjoy the layout, as it meanders through various areas.
While not as spotless as higher end (and more $$ courses), a treat to play.
Greens rolled true and sand bunkers were white, fluffy and all raked.
Starter and shop attendant were both quality individuals.
As mentioned, I enjoy this layout and the improvements that are currently being made to the overall course conditions.
Good greens, no food or drink
Greens were great...5 of 5. Fairways and rough were ok, good bit of crab grass or something...4 of 5. We were first tee time out, so naturally fast pace.
Biggest issue - there was no beverage cart and the restaurant didn’t open for another hour after we finished the round. Didn’t sell any food or bev in the pro shop either. Bring food / drinks with you if you play out here...
holiday golf
Course conditions were good, greens reasonably fast, sand conditions good.
