Royal St. Cloud Golf Links is well known for being some of the best links-style golf in Orlando. It is home to three unique nines that all closely follow the traditions of classic Scottish links golf. A round of golf at Royal St. Cloud will make you feel as though you’ve been to the British Isles and back. The Red/White golf course has been improved to make it more player-friendly overall, but the classic links challenges are still there. The course features sod and wood-faced bunkers and there are very few trees on the course. Like on any links course, be prepared to use every club in your bag. Royal St. Cloud Golf Links is also home to a lighted driving range and short game area with practice bunkers for golfers to work on their short game.

Usually Perfect

Well, Royal St. Cloud is a go to for a great value round with three well-maintained, nine hole courses, links style, well worth playing. This particular day they had an event that ran late and screwed up. Everyone’s teetimes, this is a pure management error in the employees were left to deal with it still a highly recommended golf course, especially for the value.

A Nice Change of Pace

My wife and I played a round on New Year's Day. The course was backed up about 20 minutes due to a tournament that played long but it wasn't too bad considering that it was a holiday. Nice range and nice practice green. Also, they have a wedge practice area with targets, bunkers, and a green to chip too.

The course is a really nice layout and we loved the "links style." It didn't feel like we were golfing in Florida.

The only real drawback on the day was that somehow a 5-some got in front of us. I don't know why courses let 5-somes out. We had to skip a hole to get past them as they were oblivious to anyone on the course but themselves.

Hoping to go back and play it again soon.

Course is amazing

Highly recommend. got unlucky with the two we got paired with. talk during our teeshots (someonetimes in our swinging motion) and they had 1 set of clubs between the two so they were slow. always asked us to finish out even when they still had to chip.(i could atill have a 20foot putt)overall a confusing experience on a stellar course.

Great course

The course was in good condition as were the greens. Most fairways had plenty of grass with just a few bald spots. The only negative was the time it took to play the round. The course was extremely crowded.

A great hidden Gem! Must check this place out!

A Golfer's Playground:

Royal St. Cloud Golf Links is like a golf amusement park, seriously. They've got three 9-hole courses – White, Blue, and Red. Today, we tackled the Blue to Red layout, and it was a wild ride.

Blue Course:

The Blue course is all about wide fairways, wasteland bunkers, big water hazards, and smooth greens. Those greens? Super fast. Better hold on! Your putt might roll off the green.

Red Course:

The Red course is a different beast. Tight fairways, water everywhere, bunkers ready to gobble your balls, and out-of-bounds signs popping up when you least expect them. In my opinion the Longer and Harder side of the property.

Retro Vibes:

Something I've never seen on a golf course is these cool old-school phone booths (pictured above). Definitely a unique design choice!

Course Conditions:

The whole place was in great shape and worth every penny. Each hole has its flair and style, and I'm pumped to take on the White course soon!

Whether you're a pro or just getting into golf, @royalstcloudgolflinks has something for everyone. Make sure to plan your trip out that way sometime soon!

Course is good, but....

The course is good, fun layout, has some challenges, but very playable. The pace of play is terrible! Starter sent a twosome out infront of us (that was not on the tee sheet) while we were in line at the first tee 20 minutes behind schedule already waiting on a foursome to finish with group selfies before teeing off. 1 hour to complete the first 2 holes, and over 3 plus to get thru 9. I will never go on a weekend again!

Genuine Pleasure to Play

We wanted to try something a little different from the typical golf experience and what a pleasant surprise. First of all we were greeted by a friendly young lady who handled our inquiries and check in like she cared. We then met the starter who was engaging, knowledgeable, and extremely helpful in giving us the course layout and details along with a few options to help us play a quick round.

There are 3 nine hole courses (white, red, and blue) and you can mix and match 18 holes as you please. We played the blue and red courses and found the links style course in great condition and pleasing to the eye. I am a 12 handicap and my wife is a novice and we both enjoyed the experience thoroughly.

We played our round in 3 hours and 15 minutes.

Is a little off the beaten path but at 30 minutes outside Orlando, well worth the trip.

We will definitely be back!

So Much Fun

First time playing this one. We played White/Blue. They had one of the most friendly starters I’ve ever met. He directed us to the first tee. Then he thought enough(since it was our first visit) to drive out to first tee to give us some tips on course set up.

I loved the layout. It was fairly windy that day But It is very playable. If this wasn’t 1 1/2 hour drive from my house I’d play here often.

Only negative for me is the 19th hole wasn’t worth it. It’s nice enough but slow service and mediocre food would keep me from stopping in again….cheese burger was dry and the chicken on the chicken sandwich could have fit easily on a slider bun.

Would definitely play again
