Disney's Palm Golf Course

The Palms is a great course. The Disney folks always treat you first class. Don't be vain and play the proper tees per your abilities or the course could play extremely long (especially the back nine) and won't be as much fun.

1st you are at Disney, so of course it is pristine. 2nd the Disney courses are managed and ran by Arnold Palmer Golf Management, so you will not be let down.

The Palms course will rate within my top 10 courses played. Of course the pro shop is well stocked with Mickey and Disney options of all varieties, the staff greets you and acknowledges you everywhere you go.

The course was pristine, it could not have been better, greens hard and fast, fairways so well manicured they are better then some courses greens, and the tee boxes will allow you to pick your poison as how long and hard do you want the course to play.

The best part of this round is really 2 things, you never felt pushed or waiting on a group, and almost every green is elevated with absolutely no love for a shot that was short or long as it will run off the green and you will be chipping again, putting on these greens is an absolute pleasure.

Great course, very enjoyable, and can't wait to play it again.

Good course. It was a little wet due to a big storm overnight but we were told about that mulitiple times before playing so it was not a big deal.

The course overall was good. A couple of wet holes where carts weren't allowed on the fairway. There is some bunker work being done on one of the par 3s that could impact play. The greens were average at best for this time of year. Grainy and a little slower than expected.

Course was in good shape. Tee'd off just before noon, so the pace of play was pretty slow. Course was in pretty good shape. Construction going on around the third green, but it didn't disrupt play. Worth the price to play. Ate at Sports Bar next to the course.

Course was great staff was great. Only thing that sucked for me and that is no fault of anyone than Mother Nature is that it was cart path only. Keep that in mind Incase it rains the day before your tee time. Other than that it’s great.

Very nice layout. Very playable from multiple sets of tees. We were in the first group and played in 3 hours 30 minutes. Greens were in very good shape. Price was comparable to other courses in the Disney area. Worth the trip.

Poor conditions! They should tell you when you reserve that the green have been aerated and sanded, almost unplayable. . Still they are charhing the full price! It’s the last time disney’s is going to get my money! I told my buddy we where going to play a top course......very disapointed!

Course was wet from heavy rain so it was cart path only. They had just aerated so greens were bumpy but still playable. My only complaint is the cart girl has to hand enter credit card info for on the course purchases. Being there isn’t a shop at the turn, maybe they should invest in isquare or something similar to speed up the process.

Palm is an excellent layout but pretty tough with lots of water hazards in play. You will need to bring your A game to score well. Greens are in great shape and putted fast and true. Favourite hole was the risk/reward par 4 13th where you have to choose between safely finding the fairway and trying to get as close to the green as possible with going in the water by taking on too much of the dog-leg.

Our round was exactly 4 hours.

The conditions were great greens roiled very well.

Greeters, rangers, & starters were very helpful very friendly, the gentlemen and the lady in the pro shop not so much.

Course was in very good shape. Nice layout and very friendly staff.

The course is a good test for players of all levels, but has generous landing areas and multiple tees to choose from.

The rates are a little stiff for non-residents (another thing that is consistently true of Disney!), but all in all it was an enjoyable experience.

As an Orlando area resident, I have played the Palm several times in the last couple of years and have always been impressed with the condition of the course. This time was no exception but for the fact the greens were the slowest I can remember. I can only assume the AP Management Group has determined that slower greens will expedite play, especially for higher handicap players. I’m not sure I agree with this school of thought as it has been my experience slow play is not so much the result of poor putters as it is golfers playing from a longer set of tees than their skill level, too many practice swings, not playing ready golf, and stubbornly insisting on holing out regardless of the number of strokes taken. Despite being slow, I must say the greens were lush and smooth and I hope to play them again when they are a faster speed. The fairways were a bit thin in places but were, overall, in very good shape as were the tees. Given the large number of players on the course, I thought the pace of play was pretty good and we finished in about 4:40. Everyone from the pro shop staff to the cart person were courteous and helpful. All in all, the Palm was a very enjoyable golf experience I hope to repeat in the near future.

Our foursome started at 8:24 with a twosome in front of us. After 7 holes a ranger told us we were out of position. We were two holes in front of the group behind us so we did not change our pace of play. We finished the front nine in under two hours. We kept the same pace on the back nine and finished the round in under four hours. We never saw the group behind us until we were on the 18th green and they were just teeing off on 18.

Course was even better than expected with a wonderful layout and beautiful scenery. greens were a little on the slow side but in excellent condition. I really look forward to playing here again. I've played the best courses in the area and this is a underrated one that is top level..

Nice layout as would be expected from Disney. Was extremely disappointed with the greens, they were running at a 7 tops, and this may be generous? I am sure they could easily be better greens obviously we just hit a bad day.

Unfortunately we played and it was cart path only due to rain. Great layout and very challenging.
