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.

Course condition was horrid

The course was in terrible condition with weeds and dirt patches all over the greens. Tee boxes were just only dirt on some holes. Would never recommend playing here when there are nicer courses in the area for similar prices.

Revisiting an old favorite

I make a point to play here whenever I am in the area and I have never been disappointed. This time was no exception. For a Saturday, the pace of play was very good. While I have seen this course in better condition, it was still above average. A few of the tee boxes were a little rough but overall very acceptable. The staff was very accommodating as well. I will definitely return when I am back in the area.

Great course and layout

Course was in great condition for the most part, tee boxes need some TLC but greens and fairways are great overall. Pace of play was a little slow but it is a tough course.

Hot deal great value

Celebration is a great course to play. Good condition but some greens had wear in places and some fringes and fairway patches were scruffy. Nice helpful people.

Quiet when we played so excellent pace of play.

For the price we paid - good value.

Pace of play and a terrible lunch

Shoutout to the pro shop staff, they were great, that’s where the good time ended. We were scheduled to tee off at 8:58, but the group ahead of us was running 10 minutes late so they held up our group at the first tee for 10 minutes. Said group proceeds to each hit 2 off the first tee. Saw the ranger twice and asked to speed the group up, he did nothing. Round took 5 hours. Most tee boxes were dirt but course conditions were decent. Lunch was included, ordered a crispy chicken wrap, when I got it, there was no chicken. This is not an exaggeration, there was ZERO CHICKEN. I asked her for another wrap to which she replied “no, but I can just bring you more chicken.” She proceeded to bring out a grilled chicken breast. I won’t be back anytime soon.

The tee boxes were in poor condition. Most were dirt

The restaurant was great! The food was amazing and the staff was great! Outside staff was extremely helpful and kind! The fairways and greens in my opinion could be in better condition! Due to the course conditions, the green fees were too much!

Celebration

Great course, well run. Pace of play was good. Greens and Tees in very good shape. Fairways better than most I have seen locally (due to dry weather).

Enjoyed the round. Will always play here when in the area.

Facilities for meals seem to be limited to a snack style approach which is a shame, but what we had was good.

Course in Good but not excellent shape

Course is a nice layout and in good but not excellent shape. Fairways were a little thin. Greens were good with reasonable speed. Staff was very accommodating for last minute change in tee time I had to make.

Traditional, beautiful golf course. Turf and greens could be better. Senior tees are very playable. Lots of water but you can avoid it. Quality layout.

Celebration Golf

1pm tee time on Sunday. Excellent pace of play with just over 3 hours 10 minutes for 18 holes. Marshall’s around but had little to do. We let through a couple of one balls when appropriate! Friendly staff. Good course played before.
