About

Holes 18
Type Public
Par 72
Length 7023 yards
Slope 140
Rating 74.5

The 18-hole Celebration Golf Club in Celebration, FL is a public golf course that opened in 1996. Designed by Robert Trent Jones, Jr. and Robert Trent Jones, Sr., Celebration Golf Club measures 7038 yards from the longest tees and has a slope rating of 140 and a 74.5 USGA rating. The course features 5 sets of tees for different skill levels. The greens are bermuda grass.

Father and son team of Robert Trent Jones, Sr. and Jr. created a golfing experience that is second to none at Celebration Golf Club. As a result, Celebration is a championship venue with the park-like feel of a modern, Florida course.

They were also successful in creating separate personalities between the nines. On the front, many holes border wide boulevards lined on the other side by pre- 1940 replicate homes from America's southern region and that of Bermuda, the Bahamas and the Caribbean. But with the back, the homes fade into the brush letting Mother Nature take center stage. Designed with shot-making strategy in mind, this championship caliber course demands accurate approach shots and consistent putting.

Nice Course

We played with friends and enjoyed it very much. Proshop staff to starter all friendly and helpful. There was a $2.00 environmental fee to pay for each golfer..which I thought was rather odd. Played our round in just over 4 hours. There were a couple of greens that were being worked on, top dressing maybe reseeding, but did not effect our putts. Would play again.

Wonderful Course! Great for a vacation round...

Playing here was a real treat. Friendly people. beautiful place. fun course. I think many people might have sticker shock sometimes with Orlando courses (esp in season) and then they expect "perfection" -- but that's just not realistic. Courses have brown spots here and there. They have divots. But this course is most definitely worth the money. ALSO... worth mentioning that the fairways are PRETTY generous ... The town of Celebration is gorgeous -- and I think it was originally built for the movie "Truman Show"? -- and the course is just as beautiful. If you're on vacation here in Orlando, this is a great course to play. It's fun. It's beautiful. Wildlife. Good balance of challenge and strategy. (Oh - and I DIDnt get the free lunch because my tee time was too late, but that's a GREAT benefit.)

my ONLY complaint was that the pace was VERY very slow. I think it took us 5 to 5-and-a-half hours for the round. we BARELY got it in as the sun was setting. HOWEVER... interestingly enough, it really didn't FEEL slow until around holes 12 or 13.

But i HIGHLY suggest this place. (I should mention... the reason I didn't put this as a 5 star course is simply because it's not the ABSOLUTE TOP TIER... streamsong or cabot are amazing... sure thing... not a BLADE of grass out of place... but they are also 2x or 3x the price! (or more!)

Greens need some work

We’ve played this course several times over the past 3 years. We love the layout, neighborhood and course amenities. Unfortunately we were very disappointed in the condition of the greens this year. Almost every green had little clumps of grass growing in them. We had multiple times that our putts were impacted. We were surprised that this higher end course had this problem, while the did other courses in the area did not.

Never Fails

You should play this course at least once when you come to this area of Florida. We have played every year minus the Covid year since 2016. And it still never disappoints.

Putting greens were in awful shape!!

Super slow play started at 2:30 only got 13 holes in..before it got dark!!only had a 4some!! Hector the starter guaranteed we d get 18 holes in!!!of course when we came in he was no where to be found & to top it off they don’t have a 9 hole rate!!so you pay for 18 no matter what!! That’s not right!! No I do not recommend it at all!!!

Vacation 2026

Played this course several times and it’s always been in good shape. We were able to get a great rate through Golf Now ($110), so it was a deal. Normally around $150 for Residents and $190 for Non Residents. I’m a Non Resident, so I typically play only when I can get a good rate. Again a very nice course, but not worth a $190 greens fee for me. Also, fee does not include range balls.

Brutal Greens

Greens are awful. Patchy, overgrown grass, super slow, super bumpy. Fairways were in great shape, rough was good, fun layout. Absolutely not worth full price (we got GolfNow hot deal and still felt overpriced). Website says Greens are a 12 (stimp) but more like 6.

We were charged an environmental fee of $2 per person. I said I never heard of this fee. She just replied “Everyone said that”. This is a hidden fee!!!
