Nice course

Course was in good condition considering lack of rain and heat fairways were green and fluffy. Evan if you were off the fairway you still had a decent lie. Open fairways made tee off easy but every green is protected by bunkers. Your approach better be on point.

Great course…Excellent pace of play.

Had a 6:30am tee time with two other golfers. Finished in 3 1/2 hours and we played behind a foursome. Loved the layout and the scenery. Fairways and greens were in good condition. Lots of water, but layout wasn’t that difficult. Pace of play might be longer for a later tee time, but I would definitely play the course again even if it took 4 1/2 to 5 hours to complete. Just like how the kids are amazed when walking into a Disney park, I had that feeling when walking onto the course.

Good conditions

Being a local we played at the end of dry season. Most courses are suffering the last few week. Considering the time of the year it was in excellent shape.

We had one player delayed due to an accident on I-4. They pushed us back twice to allow him to arrive. It’s not always possible but they found a way.

Glad to be regulars 6-10 a year.

Disney Charm

LBV is the best of the three Disney courses. It has a ton of character and is challenging. Overall conditions were good. The rain the night before caused it to be cartpath only, but we still had fun. It goes through the Saratoga resort and around Disney springs. A nice mix of hole for the novice and experienced alike

Pack your patience

Course was in awful condition. Almost unplayable due to recent rain. No warning of cart path only until arrived. Quit after 4 1/2 hours to 15 holes.
