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.

Aerification just happened.

The course just was aerated. They offered free lunch with play. Once we finished we went to chip and dales to get our free lunch but don’t expect anything for lunch. They aren’t giving out their normal menu. They offered a hotdog or ham sandwich which was a joke. Disney is falling off their golf game the past couple years.

Thank you for your feedback on your recent round at Walt Disney World® Golf. We apologize for the fact that your were displeased with the course conditions that you experienced.

We hope that you will reconsider playing our wonderful courses again in time to come, so we can exceed your expectations upon your next visit to Orlando.

The Magnolia golf course was aerated close to 3 weeks ago, and is in its final stages of healing. We believe that the experience warranted the price on Mondays (currently $49) is well worth the experience, especially when considering that a sandwich, domestic beer or soft drink, and a bag of potato chips is currently included in the price as a value-added measure due to the condition of the greens not being quite yet back to what we would consider as "normal".

If you would like to discuss further what you and your group encountered during your visit with our management staff, please feel free to reach out to our leadership by emailing disneygolfreservations@palmergolf.com so that we can help resolve your residual concerns.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us!

It's a Disney course, what else can I say.

You really can't go wrong with anything Disney. The course was in great condition even though we're in the Florida dry season. The staff was friendly. The starter gave us a 5 minute layout of what to expect. All in all I'm definitely coming back to this course, after I play the palm course though.

Social distancing at its finest

Had great time, carts were cleaned prior to use, all players in their own cart. All social distancing measures were put into play. What a great way to get out of the house.

Excellent course, great early spring conditions!

A very nice layout. Conditions were EXCELLENT! Both greens and fairways were green and lush. Only a very bad shot would find a lie that wasn't ideal. At $49....you won't find a better bang for the buck in Central FL. Pace of play was also excellent.... Just under 4 hours.... Though I'm certain coronavirus fear helped that. Would definitely return.
