Course Highlights
The National Course at ChampionsGate delivers a thoughtfully designed parkland layout with fast, true greens and well-maintained fairways that consistently impress. Exceptionally friendly staff, top-notch amenities, and attentive on-course service create a memorable round from start to finish.

About

Holes 18
Type Semi-Private/Resort
Style Parkland
Par 72
Length 7197 yards
Slope 128
Rating 74.1

The National course is a classic American-style layout that rolls through 200 acres of southern woodlands and wetlands. Unique bunkering, tree-lined fairways and intriguing green designs define shot making challenges. In particular, golfers are apt to remember the National for its testing par 3 holes and for the double green shared by holes 4 & 16.

The course was wonderful

I would recommend these two courses to anyone looking for a fun day of golf and an honest challenge.

The staff from the check in to the General Manager were exceptional.

This was a wonderful day for my wife and me.

The International is Great!

The International is a much better course than the National but more difficult. Course was in immaculate condition and everyone from the valet to the check in to the starter was nice.

Challenging course with fun and permissive layout

First time playing ChampionsGate National.

Wanted to try a new course during the visit to Orlando. ChampionsGate National is a very good, fun and challenging course. It forces you to think and be strategic about your shots.

Personnel is very friendly and makes your visit very pleasant.

Fairways and greens in great conditions.

Loved it!

Course was in perfect shape, great pace of play, challenging but not over the top difficult, and staff was great. Would love to come back and play the other course. Heck of a good deal playing Friday before 8:30am.

Good course

Played it for the first time this week and found it to be an OK course. The staff was great! We'd play Shingle Creek again before going back to ChampionsGate.
