Rating 73.7

The 18-hole Palm 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, Palm Course at Walt Disney World Golf Resort measures 6870 yards from the longest tees and has a slope rating of 131 and a 73.7 USGA rating. The course features 4 sets of tees for different skill levels. Greens and fairways are bermuda grass.

The natural Florida woodlands provide a stunning backdrop to one of America's premier resort courses. Architect, Joe Lee, designed the 6,870-yard Palm with elevated tees and greens. The key ingredient, of course, was the Florida palm and he made good use of nearly every variety for aesthetic and strategic purposes. Its fairways are crafted through a pine forest of mature, natural woodlands that includes moss-dappled oak, maple and cypress trees. Palmetto scrub fills the forest floor. It boasts of more than its share of water and sand with nine water holes and 94 bunkers.

This is a perfect choice for everything from a casual round to a large group outing.

Wasn’t happy that we did only 9 holes and come to find out we couldn’t get a rain check through golf now.

Fun course

Really enjoyed this layout. Pretty challenging and you have to play smart. Pace of play was a little slow today as we were cart path only due to the severe rain the days prior. Not the courses fault, and even so still managed to finish in 4:30

Great course

The Palm is my favorite Disney course. It’s a beautiful course and is in great shape. The staff is friendly and helpful. We played the day after a heavy rain, so it was cart path only (and GPS enforced), so pace of play was slow. It would have been easier to walk with a pull cart. Overall, a good round.
