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.

Course was in good shape greens were very good and fast. Layout is nice and would play a few holes diff if I go back
Not a good one time course, tiny tiny tiny greens
If you’re visiting the area looking to play golf, this is not a good “only play once” course. There are so many hidden ponds that even when you hit an incredible shot, you’ll likely walk over the fairway mounds and find you’re all wet.
Now, if you’re staying local and plan on playing a few times, then it might be worth it.
The other downside is the postage stamp size greens. I mean, I’m on vacation! I like a little larger greens and something I can actually hit. I’m an 8 hdcp and I must have putted 8 times from just off the greens. Very frustrating to have a great approach shot turned into anger.
Just my thoughts.
Simply great
Awesome track. Starting on #8 the course just gets better and better.
Had booked hot deal tee time online about 2 weeks before flying to Orlando. We had to change accommodations that day so I had to cancel the tee time. I called the course and cancelled 2 days before. They said to call customer support at golf now. GolfNow doesn’t have anyone anymore to take your call and discuss your unique situation but instead a recording tells you to edit your reservation online. My reservation did not appear online although a previous one did so I had no way of informing GolfNow of my problem. The whole focus at present seems to be encouraging everyone to buy the Golf Pass. Is my prepaid green fees for two plus fees and tax to be refunded at least in part even though the course knew 48 hours before of the cancellation? Shouldn’t there still be someone to talk to?

Course in above average condition for Fl. Good staff. Had a great time. Course was fair and challenging. Greens in good condition, especially for Fl.
Completely Overated
Staff were unfriendly from the start Pro Shop were rude Bag guys were rude, starter was ok. The pace of play was pathetic took over 5 hours behind 1 three ball that looked as if they had never played before. No Marshall's to be seen at all a complete discrace to the Legend that is Arnold Palmer.
We travelled from the UK and love golf in Florida but would not play here again if it was free
Another Great Day at Orange Lake Legends
With so many courses full this time of year it was a comforting & pleasant surprise to get a decent tee time at OL. I just played there a couple of months ago so wasn't looking to return on that 1 3/4 hr trip but the course never lets me down so I couldn't pass it up. Once more conditions were excellent,staff was great and the weather was the best in over a month. Take a ride out to Legends and enjoy all that they offer. Golf in Florida,in the winter, isn't much better than this.
Tight lies.
The course was in pretty good shape. The fairways are very tight. The greens rolled very well about a 10. The front nine is much more open than the back nine. Today the pins we tucked on the edges of every green making an up and down tough if u missed on the short side. Bunkers are in good shape.
Orange Lake Legends
Great variety of holes, lots of water, fast greens and well placed bunkers. Greenskeeper has done a wonderful job. To score I need to think my way around this course. From the right tees this course will be a fair test of golf for each level of golfer. Great day of golf with two new friends from Ohio.
Very nice layout
Excellent course,nice fairways and greens.
You won’t be disappointed playing this course.
First Time
Very nice layout, the course can be stretched for the pro's, we teed off the whites, which were very challenging with the wind and it being cold. The cart girl came round 3 times to cater too us.
I am looking forward to playing it again in good warmer weather.
Good Walking 9 Hole Course
This is a good Par 3 golf course with plenty of challenges. Well taken care of course, but could use some additional signage for following the paths. Will definitely be back!
