A dynamic, fun, beautiful course!
The staff was quick & professional. My wife's rental clubs were very nice, but affordable, The course was beautiful & challenging. Plenty of sand traps and water obstacles to keep it interesting. Would love to do it again!
It needs some work...staff is extremely friendly
Pros....friendly staff, nice layout amongst Disney property and pace of play was decent.
Cons...I haven't played here in 30yrs....and its lost some of its magic. Driving range in pretty rough shape. Practice putting green next to #1 almost unputtable. Just awful condition. A few of the greens need to be redone..I think #15 has disease of some sort.
I know its a resort but if it wasn't for the discount on a hot deal, I would have felt taken by the Mouse.
Enjoyable Course
Nice layout. Enjoyable. Not too tough. With the exception of one green, the course was in great shape. Pace of play could’ve been a little better, but I guess I can’t complain as it ended up being a 4 1/2 hour round.
Great experience
From the moment we arrived at the bag drop to the end of the day picking up our cleaned clubs our 4 some enjoyed a memorable experience. Very friendly staff both out side and in side. Amazed at the condition of the course considering the lack of rain over the past 4 months. Cudos to the superintendent and his staff. Can always expect the best from Disney.
Will be back!

Decent course
Good day out, great layout and setting, very slow pace of play just over 4 and a half hours on a buggy, every group 4 balls
Standards slipping. Not worth the money.
Standards are definitely slipping at this course.
There is definitely no dress code enforced. Was paired up with a player today wearing jeans, a t-shirt, and sneakers.
Starters tend to hold up twosomes from getting out on time as they wait for late arriving or no-show players to arrive, which just stacks up the pace of play.
Parking lot closest to the clubhouse seems filled with mostly employee vehicles, resulting in customers needing to park much farther out.
Tee Boxes
As usual Disney course was in above average shape compared to standard muni. Fairways and greens were top notch. Only grievance was some tee boxes we’re in bad shape , mostly dirt in the white / blue boxes.
Staff was mostly friendly. Good layout and was nice but for $150 per round you expect more especially for Disney. Lots of burnt out greens with fungus and cut out patches. I expect more for the money from Disney.
Service
I booked golf pass at 12:20pm, the Marshall told me because I booked by golf pass, they delayed to 12:30pm. He couldn’t explain why. Bad service and bad communication
Disney Golf
Overall the course was ok. The on course staff such as starter and beverage cart staff were fun and friendly. The course Marshall was rude and spoke out of turn. The Clubhouse facilities were run down and not very clean. The restaurant and F&B was poor and the service slow due to lack of staff.
With the amount of competition in the area, I highly doubt that I would ever play there again.
Disney always delivers.
Well kept. Good condition s
On the higher price side compared to other quality courses
You have a good staff member at drop.off, a good way to start off the day.. I have played LBV over 35 times since opened my favorite Disney..
The inside and counter very friendly and fast to welcome you. I will see you next year
Great starter and beverage cart.
