Style Links
Par 72
Length 7516 yards
Slope 141
Rating 76.0

The 18-hole Magnolia Course at Walt Disney World Golf Resort in Lake Buena Vista, FL is a resort golf course that opened in 1971. Designed by Joe Lee and Rocky Roquemore, Magnolia Course at Walt Disney World Golf Resort measures 7516 yards from the longest tees and has a slope rating of 141 and a 76.0 USGA rating. The course features 5 sets of tees for different skill levels. Greens and fairways are bermuda grass.

Of all the Disney courses, the Magnolia supports a greater abundance of wildlife. At any given time, you're likely to see deer, osprey, alligators and turtles. A flock of wild turkeys has brought several tournaments to a standstill while they pecked along its fairways. The course features elevated tees and greens with wide and generous fairways graced by over 1,500 magnolia trees that bloom from late spring to mid-summer. Brightly colored crape myrtles and oleanders, along with beds of blue plumbego and seasonal flowers, add sparkle to an otherwise dense, natural forest.

Great course

Course went thru renovations and it's a great layout. Last 5 holes play tough and the par 3 17 is a great final 2 hole.

The course was in reasonable condition

The course was in reasonable condition albeit there were some holes which were cart path only but that was purely down to recent weather conditions which had been very wet . Staff were friendly and helpful . On course refreshments were in line with all other local courses . All in all a nice course to play .

Disney Magnolia

Disney Magnolia is a very long course. The gold tees measure 6100 yards and the tips nearly 7600 yards. The course was very wet from all the storms in Orlando this week and last. The layout is superb. The stall is excellent and go out of their way to help you have an enjoyable experience. The carts are out with food and beverages, and the prices are fair. The course itself was very soggy. The greens putted true and had some very subtle tilts to the. Overall, Iit's one of my favorite courses in Orlando. I plan on playing Magnolia whenever I come to play golf in Orlando (2-3 times a year).

Magnolia

From the moment we got to the course everything was absolutely perfect. The staff were helpful and beyond friendly. Most beautiful course I’ve ever played! My only criticism would be that my daughter’s boyfriend who doesn’t golf canes along and they gave him a complimentary bag that cost $70 for the round without any clubs in it to play with.

C’mon

Drove almost 3 hours to play the Magnolia course with its newly designed “Grumpy’s Gauntlet”. Fun layout with tons of potential but the conditions were rough. Fairways and tee boxes had lots of dirt patches. Almost every green side lie was bad and the greens were not nearly as fast as they lead you to believe. Overall ok, wouldn’t recommend right now.

Slow moving

Course was very wet and muddy. Was cartpath only which slowed down the round to just over five hours for 18. Staff was very nice and friendly. Of course amenities were to be expected for the course. Was not told cartpath only until we made it to the starter which was very disappointing. Still would recommend course two friends and family.

It’s been better

The course was in ok condition. I’ve played better for the price. The gps in the carts where horrible you would make a shot to the front of the green because that’s what the cart said the flag was at only to get to the green to find out the flag was in the back. The new holes make no sense it’s like you played 1-13 on one course then left and played somewhere else for 4 holes then finished back on the course you started on for 18. Also there is a massive parking problem they wanted me to park right behind the 18th green so my truck would get hit by a 10 yard long approach shot so needless to say it took awhile to find a parking spot. Very disappointing
