Slope 142
Rating 76.6

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.

Rough shape at the moment

I have played here many times and this time was disappointing. The greens were in rough shape my guess would be from the rough winter. I have full faith the course will bounce back in no time. One thing about this course is be ready for a 5+ hour round of golf. The staff is very nice and friendly and they provide a taste of that Disney customer service when you come out.

A Stone's Throw from Disney, But a World Away

Orlando is a world class golf destination, and accordingly, it has a number of great courses to offer. Disney's Magnolia Course is one of the best bets for visitors and natives alike. Just down the road from the attractions, this course will challenge avid golfers, but is also relatively forgiving for more intermediate players (or avid players on bad days, haha). The greens are true, the rough is manicured, and the overall feel of the course is tidy. I will certainly be frequenting this course again in the future.

Disney Experience

The course is probably the closest I will come to playing on a PGA course. Difficult enough to still have fun. Excellent conditions. Sometimes they have great deals for Florida Residents.

WOW!

If you have not had an opportunity to play golf at Disney, what are you waiting for? The experience that the Disney staff creates is the best in the area, and the course was in magnificent shape. The Fairways were soft and lush, the rough was pristine! The Greens were well kept, a little hard in my opinion..... This is the second Disney course I have played and its well worth the price. See you soon Mickey!
