PGA Course Conditions
If you want to play a course that resembles what touring professionals play, LBV is the course for you. The greens were fabulous and fast and the fairways were in good shape. The only issue that I had was that no golfers were in front of me on the front 9 and my group played at a quick pace, however, when we stepped onto the 10th tee box all of a sudden a 4 some was on the green and a 2 some was in the fairway. I don't know how they got in front of us other than starting their rounds on the back nine. Very disappointing, as we completed our front 9 in less than 2 hours and completed our back 9 in 3 hours. It made for a very long round. However, I booked LBV for $20 on Golf Now which is a STEAL!!!
LBV is the best of Disney
I've played them all and I like LBV the best.
The course is in very good to excelent conditions, the only fault were the bunkers and traps, still a little wet.
You must play here!
This is a must for any player! I loved the views and the perfectness of the course! If your at Disney just for the parks you need to take a day off and play here! We'll worth it! We were selected for the golf ambassador trial and we loved it! They did everything for you! You email them a day before you play and they are ready for you when you tee it up!

great course great day of golf super... nice set up
Disney courses are the best!
A very good course to play and I'm glad I did the course played great from Tee to the greens were as nice as I seen in the area :)
great place to play
Great course and the staff was very courteous helpful and very enthusiastic about the golfers the cleanest of the cour they was there when there was a problem. the course was a challenge if you bring lots of balls because there is water and woods everywhere. the only concern is it is full of tourists.
Squishy; does not drain very well
Lake Buena Vista has never drained particularly well. On the day I played, it rained heavily the night before, which made the course extremely went.
I hit a couple of wedge shots from the middle of the fairway (and hit them well), but the amount of mud, etc., that splashed up made me look like I had been playing in a sandbox of mud. The traps were totally full of water, which could not be helped.
The combination of an early tee time and the moisture made the course play very long. Once a shot hit, including the fairway, it didn't budget. What you hit was all you got.
A Fun Course
LBV is a course that is not difficult but keeps your attention. The course was soggy, but in great shape otherwise (cart path only). Had the course to myself for almost the entire round. The soggy conditions may have had something to do with this. A flaw in the Disney courses seems to be that they don't drain as well as other courses after a lot of rain. You should keep this in mind if cart path only bothers you.
the course was in great shape
It was my first time playing this course. I cant what to play again. the first hole is a par five, it was tough.

Very beautiful. Each hole is hidden from the other. Right in disney but does not feel like it
LBV is Terrific Course
I haven't played this track in a while... The Arnold Palmer Managed facility is in terrific condition. The greens are true and quick. The entire course was in the best condition. The staff couldn't be more accommodating.... We had some slow play in the fist couple of holes and the ranger thanked us for our speed of play and he shared that he alerted the group in front of us to pickup then pace... We never had to wait again.. We will play here again soon.
Wait until it dries to play
The course was really, really, really wet and so it was cart-path only and there was absolutely no roll or give. Decent layout but it plays a lot longer when it is this wet. A little slow at points but overall a good pace. Cart lady was stationary at one and off the green at nine and had nothing really to offer. Out of sandwiches and hot dogs and wraps - basically just chips and drinks. You think Disney would know better.
The best
what a beautiful rain and lightning show we watched from the shelter at 3 5 tee. we played two more in the slop and then they closed the course, good move. Golf Now gave us a refund so at least we got to see the place. I'd love to go back there with my 4 som for that same price. Perfect Greens!!!
This course is in mint condition
It was quite busy as expected on a Saturday morning but the pace was good we never had to wait at a hole. Staff was super friendly, and we were warned of inclamate weather promptly. Only played 13 holes but would go back again no doubt.
slow play
no ranger to keep the play flowing . there was A real slow group in front of our group .we had two other groups waiting on every tee with us with open holes ahead of the group in front of us . Where was the ranger?
Great time
Roll out the red carpet, Disney is always a premium venue. The course was in great condition greens roll true, I think it is one of the best tracks in the area for the money plus the cast members make you feel like a VIP, very professional would recommend to put on your golf bucket list
Great course for price
Had a pleasant round. Greens punched a month ago but rolled good.
fun resort course
good condition course with moderate degree of difficulty, got a great rate with golfnow hot deal will definitely play here again if price is right.
Very Nice
This course was almost immaculate. Very nice all around and pretty.
The course does play slow and they let you know that right off the bat, the average round time they said was 5 hours, we made it out just shy of 5.
The cart girl stays between hole 1 and 10 and does not drive around, again this is because they said it slows down play to much to have her out there.
If it weren't for the slow play and lack of beverage/food cart driving around I would have rated 5 stars all around.
Great course would love to play again.
