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.

Not so special

We've played here every year for the past 6 years except for 2 years during Covid and have always felt special and appreciated. Not so much this year. Pro shop was

Moderately friendly. Tagged on an environmental fee of $2 each which could just have been included in green fee.

Waitress in restaurant was great as was the fellow Canadian from Toronto who cleaned our clubs.

Just felt like something was lacking. Maybe the rates were higher than in the past and didn't include the driving range and meals or beverages in previous years.

Good times

Fully stocked pro shop, unique driving range but fun and enjoyable, good practice facilities. Well put together course mixed terrain and plenty of water hazards. Just an overall good time take more club then you need as the distances can be a little misleading. Good food at the club house with a friendly waitress. Absolute must play if you’re in the area.

Good course, skip the lunch

Always a good round of golf. Course is in very good condition. The lunch that is included is not very good, I should have had lunch elsewhere.

Out of state issue!

I have enjoyed the opportunity to play this course over a ten year period. I love it. BUT, Celebration has joined the “soak the out of stater” program started by Disney . I cannot understand the logic. In staters pay one fee - out of staters a higher fee. 50 bucks or so a head. Sooner or later some court may solve this. We golfers, who want to play have to suck it up.

Wet and Cold Day

Great course, always loved playing it. Rain made for some soggy shots and was cart path the entire round but definitely an enjoyable day in spite of the weather. Left a few strokes out there, will get them back next time...

Always

If it rains an ounce of rain it’s cart path only. Makes for a very long round. Not worth full price for this experience

A great place to play golf

🏞️ Course Review: Celebration Golf Club 🏞️

Having recently played at Celebration Golf Club, I’m eager to share my insights.

⛳ Course Layout and Condition: Nestled within the picturesque town of Celebration, the course offers captivating scenic views. Though some areas were slightly soggy with a few holes marked as Cart Path Only, the overall course maintenance was commendable. The freshly mowed fairways and greens, which rolled true at a medium pace, made for a pleasurable golfing experience.

⛳ Practice Range: The water range is a unique feature at Celebration Golf Club, offering a distinctive setting for practice and warm-up sessions. (1st picture)

🏛️ Clubhouse Experience: The clubhouse exudes charm with a well-stocked interior. The vintage cars displayed out front add a nostalgic touch, enhancing its overall appeal.

🌊 Course Challenges: Players should be prepared for multiple water hazards. A strategic mindset is vital, especially off the tee, making it essential to think twice before automatically reaching for the driver. The undulating greens further amplify the challenge, demanding precision around the dance floor.

⛳ Pace of Play: A point to note was the slower pace of my round; I managed to cover 14 holes in just over 5 hours. Those planning future visits might consider strategizing to ensure they can complete a full round.

Gem of a course

Second time to play in a few months. Course in excellent condition, greens smooth and a bit tricky.

Appreciated Don the starter on 12/24 helping me with a request.

I’ve always played very early so pace has been good.

Included lunch at times is a plus.

Rude staff

If you are a bogey/bogey+ golfer, do not play here! Apparently they like only scratch golfers. Our foursome averaged a 94 on this day but we were constantly told to pick up or pace and even had a course ranger follow us on the back nine. We know the rules and keep our games moving. We kept looking behind us and when we were on the green the group behind us was teeing off. Other times we didn’t even see the group behind us. The emailed the manager and they never responded. We won’t ever play here again. We have played much nicer courses and have never been treated this way. The course isn’t that good to be treating people this way.

Great course

Course was in great condition. Staff were super friendly. Two groups in front of us were slow but rangers did great job of moving them. Will definitely recommend and will play again.

Nothing to write home about

Had an early morning tee time and finished under 3 hours even with cart path only.

The course is okay, nothing overly challenging and pretty straight forward. Greens were in good shape as well.

I prefer Orange County national to here due to more of a challenge, but based on conditions I’d recommend it.

Always Solid

Fairways, tees and greens all in great shape. Course was a little soggy but not enough to be annoying. This is probably the best deal in Orlando right now being that it’s a premier course and still charging a reasonable rate this time of the year. I always love playing here. The atmosphere is great.
