Disney's Magnolia Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
About
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 7505 yards from the longest tees and has a slope rating of 142 and a 76.6 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.

Unfortunately, the climate of recent has not been conducive to healthy turf growth, but we expect that as the weather warms up again, that the vibrancy of the turf will again return.-Management Photo submitted by Ah1122 on 03/24/2021

Bad condition
Disney makes waaaay tooo much money not to have pristine conditions. This course doesn’t match up to other great courses in the area.
Poor condition!
Not warned about aeration !
Pace of play was terrible, no one helped!

Aerated with no alert
Greens were punched and had not bounced back. No alert on golfnow when I booked.
Good condition but greens need some work.
We always love playing the course. The only issue was some of the greens had bare spots and some had bare spots that were full filled with sand. Overall the course was playable with no major issues.
Great place to play!
The course was in great shape and the staff was amazing! I will definitely be back.
Great place to play.
Enjoyed our round at the Magnolia. We hope to go back when we return to Florida.
Anytime your at Disney you will be treated right. Course was in great shape and the greens were running about an 8.
Great value , Disney excellence
Staff, service, amenities galore. Loved my first Disney golf experience. Green fees very affordable! Enjoyed the course layout and pace of play was great.
Magnolia, a flower in bloom!
This is a very playable course in very good condition. A bit easier than the Palm, especially for ladies or short hitters. It was a very enjoyable round where we met two local residents who were nice guys.
Excellent All Around!
On the day we played, there was a huge collegiate championship that afternoon, but none of that interfered with the outstanding round of golf we had! What a Day! I would highly recommend this course to all my golfing friends!!
Could be better
Nice layout, fairways weren’t in the best shape. Greens a bit slow but rolled true.
Challenging and fun!
This course has something for everyone - risks and rewards. Loved it!
GREAT Value
EXCELLENT Layout, with a rich history. The condition was "ok", but to me that didn't matter. I couldn't help but imagine the fairways lined with spectators, and the greats of the game bombing away from the back tees. The staff was great! My only knock was the pace of play. Because the Magnolia is a resort course, there were quite a few "non-golfers" in front of us, that played REALLY slow...... but overall, the chance to ay a former PGA Tour course for such a great value is impossible to pass on.
