Great Course Layout with Generous Tee Ball Landing Areas
Enjoyed the course very much. Every landing area for the tee balls were very generous. A smart golf architect especially for a resort course. Conditions were good and we were paired with a 5 handicap Englishman and a golfer from Thailand. Both were delightful and fast players. Greens are heavily undulated so be ready. Only beef was that the shuttle boat horns became annoying. Would recommend this course.
The course is average for Disney Brand
I play every time i visit a new place. I got a good deal for the ttime, however the course is average for the price. If you are looking for easy play, then this would be the one.
Fairways were OK, Greens could have been good, but there were so many pitch marks.
Overall it was a great day to be out, but i would not play again if i had other options.
denny day
It was a beautiful day to play golf. The course was in fantastic shape. Fairways were a little tight but the greens and tees were perfect. The rough was still wet from several days of rain earlier in the week. Pace of play was a little stow on the front nine but perfect on the back.
Nice round if holf
The course is challenging at times. Pace of play was very good. The greens were slightly beat looking . Otherwise a good time.
Cancellation
Had to cancel due to tornado warnings. Hoping for a refund or mulligan!!!!!
Wonderful
Couldn’t have asked for a better day on the course. Course in great condition. I played as a single. Got paired with a family of 3. All were good golfers, knew golf etticate, and played fast. Played round in approx. 4 hrs. Weather was perfect. Almost impossible to ask for a better outing. Keep up the good work Lake Buena vista golf.
Very good course
Paid about $130 and for that price point the course conditions were great. For the price point it actually felt like a fair value which is hard to come by at Disney. Overall pretty forgiving and you'll use your driver on almost every hole. I would have preferred more variety off the tee. Would play again though.
Great day at Disney
Perfect Florida weather day, which helped, and the course wasn’t muddy, which also helped. Clubhouse and staff were lovely. Great selection of merchandise inside the pro shop. Pace of play was shockingly great…4 hr and 30 min round, which for a resort course is good. Course is really nice shape, green speed was very fair. Can’t wait to come back and play the other courses on property.
One of the BEST courses I’ve ever played
First off, it was about to rain when I arrived so I held off until after the storm passed. It was cart path only after that, which was fine. I was able to get out first so nobody was ahead of me. That helped w pace of play for sure.
Here is my review:
The staff is super excellent, pretty much as expected from Disney cast members.
The scenery is gorgeous.
The course conditions are absolutely excellent.
The greens are impeccable.
The design is everything you’d want it to be.
Love it there. I hope to return soon or maybe just start working there :)
Pleasantly Surprised
Fun layout. Course was in great shape. Excellent pace of play. Very friendly staff.
Call then due to lightning never got to play and could not get a rain check from the course tried golf now and was unable to get it So no it wasn't a good time and I would like to credit for that thank you cute
