Disney's Magnolia Golf Course

Course was very well conditioned. There are 2 temporay holes set up as short par 3s on #16 & #17

There were a couple of holes under construction, and a few long par 4 holes, but all in all it was a very nice course. Fairways and greens were very nice. Look forward to playing it again.

Just finished playing Magnolia. Very disappointed. The course conditions were OK at best. Greens were sanded. Soggy and soft areas on fairways. Holes 16 and 17 are temporary because of course construction. Both play like a pitch and putt. We were given 15% off our rate of $175. This course under these conditions with two temporary holes is not worth half that price. We were told about the construction at check in but it is downplayed. It does not feel like you’ve played a real round of golf. Golf elsewhere until they have fixed their mess.

There are a lot of things wrong at Magnolia. #1 the construction noise is pretty disruptive alone however the Marshall’s are disinterested in promoting any reasonable golf etiquette. Pace of play was behind beginning at the second hole by 11 minutes which expanded to 35 by the turn and ultimately 59 by the end of the round. Golf groups playing very loud music both in front and behind so really distracting on the greens and tee boxes. Inebriated players were loud and pretty disruptive as well. Everything went unchecked. The last 4 holes a mess with reconstruction so the green fees are lot given what you’ll have to tolerate at this course.

We play this course on every trip to Orlando. Unfortunately 3 holes are under construction and you play alternate holes. I will wait until they are done before we come back again

3 friends and myself had a great time. We were catching a flight at 8:30 pm that evening and played the course at 11:00 that morning. Fun course but whatever they are doing at 16 and 17 is Mickey Mouse( no punn intended).

Overall great experience. One thing to improve on is the shower facilities. Obviously we wanted to shower after our round, before our flight and all there was in the shower was a soap dispenser on the wall in the shower. I’m sure they could add shampoo and conditioner.

Greens very slow and disappointing but had been sanded so understandable. Holes 16 and 17 both at 80 yrs par 3 is poor and they could be better even with the works - course very wet and cart path on 3 long holes played a part in slightly spoiling the course - very wet in places .

That said a good course some great challenging holes and if greens speed up will be good

I played this course with some friends off of a hot deal this past Sunday. The course itself was in okay condition. I get a hurricane just passed but we played other courses in better shape for much less. If we didn’t get a hot deal we would’ve payed $150-$170 for our round. On the second whole the starter told us we were playing to slow and backed up the first tee box, even though the group ahead of us took 20 minutes to reach the green, and caused us to tee off late. Then each hole was cut horrible, so if you didn’t drain the putt dead center of the hole it would lip out, which was incredibly frustrating. The most egregious part was hole 16 and 17. I understand the course is under construction however they mislead everything. Hole 16 is closed and you are teeing off from a temp tee box 80 yards to the right of the green, same with hole 17. On the website it says temp tees, but it does not say that two of the holes are chip and putts with an attack angle that makes the greens wide and skinny. Hole 16 looked finished so I don’t get why we couldn’t play it. Hole 17 is just not there, it’s just the green and you chip onto it from the 18th tee. They offer 15% off but the most expensive tee time is $170, so its already way overpriced. Play any other course in Orlando, it’ll be cheaper and kept way better. You are paying for the Disney name and that is it.

It’s a lovely course but not sure play should have been allowed that day. Fairways were extremely wet from previous rains and cart path only. They were so wet that even walking in fairways was a challenge do to mud and wetness. I played with my husband and the ladies tees were usually quite far from the cart path while the men’s tees were right on the cart path. In addition construction and temporary holes were not enjoyable. I was disappointed because we had so looked forward to an enjoyable round. The staff were lovely and helpful. The course was not worth the green fee because of its condition. Had I realized how bad it was I would never have played that day.

The course should be closed. There is standing water in almost every holes, fairways are almost unplayable with out looking for high ground. Lay out is great and greens are challenging but putt well. I will go back to play again after it has a chance to dry out.

Still a little messy for the last few holes as they "reimagine" the course but nothing that takes away from much from the enjoyment.

Overall a great experience for us as returning guests
