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.

It boasts of more than its share of water and sand with nine water holes and 94 bunkers.

Golfer Reviews
Great day
Enjoyed the round and all of the informal signs on most holes regarding PGA events.
Beautiful course..!!
Have had the pleasure of playing this course a few time...my favorite Disney one here, Pace of play is usually slower, but course staff did there best to get everyone through. Would recommend to play if in the area.
Good Course - Exceptional Staff Friendliness
Very nice course with exceptionally friendly staff
What Disney Does
Fairways fine. Tees great. Greens a bit bumpy, but otherwise predictable. There’s water, but always subject to risk-reward decisions. Landing areas for drives are generous. Here’s the Disney touch: My wife left her visor in the pro shop while trying on clothing pre-round. On hole 2 she called to ask it be found, if possible, and held. On 4th hole we got a text on the GPS screen saying it had been found and asking if she’d like it to be delivered to her.
Pace of play was fine. A player assistant told us on 12 that he had asked folks ahead of us to pick up the pace. We had played the front in 2 and 15.
The pictured critter is a moocher at the 18th tee. He appears to be live rather than animatronic.
Unfortunately can’t Play today
I had problems with my car today and I coudn’t Play at Disney Palms Golf
I now Magnolia & Palms , both are very beatifull
I live in Argentina and I habe a House in Encore at the Reunión . Every times I coming I Play in Disney’s Golf
I Would like to know of I can recuperate the fee to use in another reservation
Regards,
Federico Freitag
Conditions
Fairways lies very tight and the greens a little bumpy because of issues they were addressing....over all good.
It was tough for an old 81-year-old. Like the signs about the pros. Great experience with Disney
Quit after13 holes
This course used to be one of my favorites. It has a great layout and course is usually in good condition but pace of play was almost a 5-5 1/2 hour round. when we brought it to the player assistant attention, he said we were on pace And then argued with me about it when I told him we were at over a 5 hour pace. It took us 2 and a 1/2 hours to play the front 9 and got even slower on the back 9. There were several times where there were 4 groups of players on one hhole.
It will be a long time before I come back and play this course again.
Love playing at Disney
Disney golf courses are always fun. Good pace today and was not backed up at all. Seen three gators which I never see there so it was awesome. Seen two deer which was nice. Seen some turkeys are always. One odd thing I noticed is that people who play at Disney don’t fix ball marks/divots on the greens, they just leave them. Most people who play Disney bring their clubs or fly their clubs in so they know etiquette and it puzzles me why there were so many in repaired ball marks that were obviously left during the day. They were fresh. For as many people who play Mickey courses Disney does a remarkable job on the grounds. The golf cart seats there are so cushy. I play Mickey courses when the weather is not as hot and the rate is $50.00 and under since I am local to the area.
beautiful Day
Your experience at Disney is always top notch, even while in covd precautions. The course was in good shape , however the greens needed to be rolled. The practice green was nice but the greens on the course were slow and bumpy..Also got a great deal to play LBV the next day. Will play again on a return visit
