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.

Great course. Slow play.

Some of the best staff I've run into while playing. Very friendly, knowledgeable, and a great overall experience. Course is a very fun challenging layout. Not the longest course but need to be accurate with your shot. Unfortunately pace of play was very slow. 5+ hour round in 101 degree heat will ruin any round.

Not worth the money

Course layout is nice but greens were aeriated and covered in sand. No cart service and very slow play on the back nine.

A must play in Orlando area

The course was in great shape overall. Some green especially on the front nine are a bit bumpy but nothing crazy. The fairways are great, some of the tees are somewhat rough but again not an isuue at all. Great place to play, a fair test for different handicap levels.

Nice layout, bumpy greens

this is a nice course, spoiled by greens that were very bumpy. Somehow they got them reasonable fast, but also uneven. Putts rolled and bumped to the hole.

Conditions other than that were good. Some hidden hazards, so be careful.

Ono of the best courses in the Orlando area. I always recommend it. Take a morning tee time and the pace of play will be fine

Confused

Been here a couple times but the staff was on edge for some reason. A lot of the older gentlemen were not friendly and made you feel stupid for not knowing everything little detail on how they run things. You’d think a course backed by Disney would have a little more common courtesy for guests

Bad

I have lived here in Florida for one year and this by far the worst course conditions on any place I have played. I worked at a course for the last 26 years in Ohio but the course is bad the cart kid said the same thing.

Yes, I’d play here again!

I’ve been trying to play different courses when I come to Orlando. This was my first time playing at Celebration and the course was in great shape. The greens were a bit slow, but staff informed me that they would burn up if they were cut any lower for this time of year. Minimal waiting, so we finished I. 4 hours flat. They also offered a nice meal deal, which was pretty decent.

Played the course a few years ago and enjoyed it. Played it this past weekend and was disappointed. The staff was friendly except for the cart girl. The course was filled with bugs, but I enjoyed the layout.

REFUSED TO GIVE US RANGE BALLS

It started in the Pro Shop when the people would not give us the free range balls which are supposed to come with a round of golf. I attached a screenshot to prove my point. The course was really dried out and some guy went over to my girlfriend and told her not to hit off the grass on the range and only use the mats. There were zero signs saying this and the guy said he wasn't even working and he just came over to annoy us apparently. The greens were not too good and the cart kept stalling out on us throughout the whole round. I have played many different clubs and never had a cart shut down so much ever. The computer was set on such a level that you could almost never leave the cart path. The employees working on the course were also very inconsiderate and played there music very loudly while we were tying to tee off. We will never golf here again and I would warn anyone to not play this course EVER! BUYER BEWARE!!!

Nice course, HORRIBLE PACE

I had the 3rd tee time of the day. The pace was on track to finish 40 minutes behind. It was wait on the tee, hit a drive, wait 10 to 15 for the next shot... repeat. I walked off after 9 holes

The course needs a little TLC.

We were a little disappointed in the condition of the course. The practice green was in rough shape and the range was mats only. Some of the tee boxes were in really rough shape. The greens were decent, but the overall condition of the course was lacking compared to some other courses in the area.

Celebration Golf Course

This is one of my favourite courses in central Florida.

The course is in good condition and well maintained by green staff.

Lots of good advice prior to the round by the starter and asked us to avoid slow play.

The front 9 took 2 hours and 15 minutes to complete and the starter asked correctly asked us to speed up. However, I pointed out that we have been held up at every hole from the 3rd tee by the game in front. He informed he has asked them to speed up. Pity they didn’t act on hi instructions. We did manage to complete the course in 4 hours and 10 minutes.

Despite the slow play we enjoyed our round and will play this course when I next bust Florida from the UK.
