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.

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.

Environmental fee

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!!!

Terrible Greens.

Tee boxes & fairways are beautiful, but the greens are in terrible shape. Serious disease all over the greens. Not worth the money they are charging.

Always Great in Winter Months!

Celebration is my favorite course in Orlando. It was in great shape when we played due to the overseeding. Greens were smooth and fast. Always better to play in the wintertime because the course is not too wet due to the summer rain we get here. And...it is cooler temps!

Enjoy your round!
