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.

Pricey even under construction

:) nice boutique and 50% pro

:( greens are average, and slow

Pace is horrible

Marshall do not adress slow players

Last 4 holes are under construction and horrible, so why they keep price up ?

Bunkers has little sand

Some fairways have pat hes

Workers were just talking, nobody is actually working

They should charge half the price, so i do not recommend Magolia

Course was very good but...

The course was in great shape. However on holes six and seven the mowers continued to mow next to us while we were on the tee box trying to tee off. Tried to flag them down but they paid no attention.

Course was still being worked on. The staff was great but course conditions were not great. I understand the Disney connection but we played several other courses that we paid less money for and were in better shape.

A nice course to play.

It's good to know that you are going to play a course that is well maintained.

Course just ok

Corse was just ok. The last holes were like playing a public course. All greens were so slow . Not fast at all. Overall a little disappointed. Also a big thing was my wife had a hole in one on #3 and the staff said the pro shop has something for her. It was to fill out a form to get a certificate sent to her. I would think maybe a hat would have been nice. Course playing ok . Will be good when they complete all their work on the last 3 holes.

not like disney

at 10:30 am, We were told by the starter that we were the last group to go out before an afternoon tournament. He said no one would be behind us and we could stop to get lunch after the first nine. Subsequently (4 times) we were rushed by a ranger. This made us rush which affected our golf and it took the enjoyment out of the round. This was very un-Disney like, and also very disappointing.

Disappointing

Slow round with no martial

Still under reconstruction to 3 temp holes really short.

Thought maybe it would be discounted due to on coarse work

6 holes cart path inly didn’t help.

Will be outstanding when the new tee boxes open.

The only reason I gave course conditions 3 stars is because we had to play from temporary teeing areas. I'm anxious to play it again once they are open. It's a beautiful course and fun to play.

Solid

The staff was very friendly and track was in great shape for the most part. A couple of things rubbed me the wrong way though. Range balls were included (awesome) but the range mats were terrible. All beat up and muddy. Also, the bathrooms out on the course were closed. Neither are deal breakers. But for it being Disney and a $200 round... at least replace your range mats once and a while!

Fun but…

I like the Disney courses but I wouldn’t consider them ‘memorable.’ The course was decently maintained, and there is a good mix of water and sand. Range balls are included in the price which is nice. Holes 15, 16, 17 and 18 are modified due to nearby road construction which accounts for the reduced greens fee. Course play is 4.5 to 5.0 hours though the layout would indicate a quicker pace. I love Disney and the occasional sound of the Magic Kingdom train’s whistle is great, but feel that the courses are overpriced.

Disney magic

Tees and Fairways are in great shape. Not much rough here. The greens are slow. I don’t like slow greens. Wish I had a solution to problem. They are receptive on approach but I can’t hit it hard enough to get it there.
