About
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.

Disney Palms
I truly enjoy playing the Disney Palm course. Despite torrential rains the previous day, only the range was closed. The course was very playable but without roll out. The winds were gusting as well and this added to the challenge.
We will definitely be back for another round.
Great track
We had a mid afternoon t time …staff was very friendly and the course was setup fairly …greens were just right …the cart girl was seen every 4-5 holes and the pace of play was perfect on this busy day
Not worth the money $144 resort course prices!
Got to course it was cart path only they charge full price which is not right. Pace of play was slow because of cart path only and we were a 2sum with a 4 sum in front of us then a 5 sum in front of them. Starter told me alot of people cancelled because of rain night before. Sand bunkers were flooded greens had cosmetic problems and disease. Wildlife on course is nice to see. Design is nothing special. I shot a 79 and I took some pictures of the problems. Happyest place on earth???
Round was CPO. The 2 of us got paired with a pair of great much younger great guys and the round was great fun
Great challenge !
Very challenging course with a lot of water and very fast greens. Really enjoyed my round !
Friendly and Fun
We had an excellent experience at Disney’s Palm Golf Course. Staff was friendly and even replaced our cart when the battery was running low. We finished four minutes behind pace, which was acceptable since the group in from of us had kids playing.
Great Course
We really enjoyed the course. Our group had various levels of skill and we all felt the course was challenging and enjoyable. The staff were very friendly.
