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.

Great conditions
Course plays long, greens, fairways ,and tees all in great shape, staff helpful ,19th hole friendly and engaging. Positive gold experience
Always enjoyable
Have played this course several times over
The past few years. Highly recommend this course
Good Value for the $$
Course is in great shape right now. Very fun layout to play. Paired up with another twosome and had a blast. Cart girl met up with us at least 3 times throughout the round to keep the beverages flowing. Would play again and hope to soon.
GolfNow league
No one knew what was going on for the golfnow leag
Arnie doesn't disappoint
Wonderfully designed track. Front nine especially difficult for me. Arnie gives a player room to play safe/bail out or be aggressive. If you choose the latter, be prepared to post some big numbers if you stray to the left. Course was in great condition after a hot, dry spell. Staff was friendly and courteous.
Rated an 8 out of 10
A must play
Played a lot of the course's around that area but not here. The course was in nice shape an a great value for the price with a lunch. Do your self a favor an play here !!!
Orange lake
Great course ! Well maintained .will definetely return. Challenging par 37 front with more water on par 35 back
Handicaped People Seemed Not Welcomed
Played with my 90 year old father and I am disabled do to broken legs from a car crash. Cart was not modified to allow us to get to our balls, therefore we had to walk all par 3's and walk 50 yards or more near the greens. Also was pushed by the coarse staff to hurry up and therefore we had to miss a hole.
always pristine
a real bargain through golf now as we can't afford this course during snowbird season.
Must play
Great value, wide fairways, fun par 3's... Must play!!!
Beautiful layout
Can't ask for a better course. Most of the holes have a great layout with great landscaping. Waste areas and guarded greens will challenge the play.
Greens, fairways are in great shape!
Challenging yet fun!
Excellent course for the money, open fairways let you get aggressive off the tee and then reel you in with difficult approach shots to bunker protected greens. Fun yet challenging, would definitely play it again! One word of advice, PLAY EARLY, it's hot in Florida!!!!!!
Pace hampered the day
No complaints about the course conditions, or friendliness of staff. However sending off a five some midmorning on a Saturday was completely ridiculous. Not only were there many open holes in front of them, it put all the groups behind them back almost an hour. I played here many times before around four hours but this five hour plus round was not necessary. Orange Lake you know better.
Poor Condition
Greens were in terrible condition. Were not told that the course was in rough shape and was charged full price. Would like to play it when in good condition so I would recommend this course.
Enjoyable layout but challenging
Nice Layout with good hole variations. Would like to have an easier to view GPS because of some of the hidden hazards. The brightness of the GPS did not lend itself to the sunny day.
Wow....
All I can really say is go play it for yourself. Bring your SW! I was honored to step foot on a Palmer course for the first time and I can honestly say you will see why. Awesome awesome course. No complaints or criticisms about the design. Can't wait to go back. Food was not impressive but I was genuinely there for the round of golf so no big deal.
Good day
Plays fair. Large fairways and good speed on the greens
Great course for casual player
I liked the course: well maintained, generous fairways and greens.
Great resort course
Overall enjoyable day ! Course in great shape.The greens rolled fast and true. The staff was friendly and attentive, and appeared
to try to keep pace of play in mind. A definite must play, especially with some good golf now rates. Will absolutely be back with friends !
course was great for the money
nice gps on the cart and they do a god job of keeping play going
