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.

Love this course

Was hesitant about booking considering the reviews on the conditions but found the course conditions to be great. Greens were a little bumpy but no big deal. I LOVE this course and layout. Always a treat to play. Lots of gators! This course is a good test - need to be fairly accurate off the tee box to avoid the hazards. I always book at least one round here when in town and will continue do so!

Nice course but overpriced.

This is my first time playing here. The staff was very friendly. I even got a phone call the day before to ask if I was coming. The practice facilities nice. Course layout was fun challenging. Parts of the course needs some work. There was a few greens that have sand on them. Some of the tea boxes were a little beat up. But for this price point, there’s a lot of other places you could play that we’re in better condition.

Poor Greens

Greens very bumpy and therefore not true for putting. The Starter blamed it on the hurricane that went thru the Orlando area a few weeks prior, but other area courses like Hawks Landing and Orange County National did not have bumpy greens!

Did include a good lunch sandwich, but drink not included.

A reserved yes recommendation !

It used to be Disney!

You can tell it used to be a Disney course and the staff reflects that type of service. Challenging course, tight with a lot of water. Lost 9 balls🤣

Extremely Disappointed

Golfers are being taken advantage of the high price for the course condition. This course used to be in beautiful condition now it is horrible. The only parts of the course that are in decent shape are the greens and the bunkers.

We played 2 other courses in the area the previous two days and they were in excellent condition. Again, very disappointed & overpriced for the current conditions.

SUPERB CHALLENGE AT REASONABLE PRICE

Very close to Disney, the Celebration club provides a solid but fair challenge for golfers of all abilities. In good condition, you face water hazards on about every hole. Great staff who are dedicated to good customer service. The green fee includes lunch! I would go back anytime.

A gem of a course

They over seeded Fairways provided a little cushion under the ball helping to play great golf. A challenging layout with fast greens.

I must play when you’re in the Orlando area.

Greens were terrible

The practice green was not in good shape-bumpy on the entire green. Starter said it hasn’t been cut or rolled-said the greens on the course would be fine. They were in the same condition as the practice green. Tees were in bad shape. Fairways were ok.

For the price paid by an out of state player the greens and tees should have been in great shape. Until the greens and tees get in better shape it is not worth the price for green fees. Other courses we played in the area did not have the same problems.

Course is very good in layout and surroundings, greens had just been aerated so they need a bit of time to come back. Staff were great and friendly. The lower rating will change when the greens come back, the cost was reflected in that for our game.
