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.

Excellent conditions

Course was in excellent shape. Fairways and greens were surprisingly good. The clubhouse was slightly disoriented and busy organizing an event for the day. Excellent golf morning otherwise

great shape but greens are not receptive

From tee to green the course is in great shape and the layout and is interesting. The greens are great for putting. They're like a carpte, but they are non receptive to spin. Hard to get the ball to stop on the greens. My only complaint, but that's a big part of the game.

Quirky, but Fun

Played the white/blue combo and thoroughly enjoyed it, though was very busy so took close to 5 hours to get round. Guy in the group behind pulled out a fishing pole at one hole while we’re all waited to play! Think that’s a common issue as it’s a busy course.

Most holes are very generous off the tee, par 3s are good and the greens true and reasonably fast.

The range is suffering from over use but that apart, no issues.

Great value for the price. I’ll be back.

RSC

I play here whenever I am in Orlando-has a rep for slow play, I avoid that by playing early and mid week. Layout is nice, not a bunch of repetitive holes, have never had any issues with the staff, they have always been great.

Great greans

Greens are fantastic!! Everything else is great too but the greens are so consistent making easier too putt but harder to hit long irons and hold greens which is fun..

Course and conditions are awesome. Only think I would ask is cold water in the water stations. Tees off at 9:30 and all the coolers were warm water. Maybe add some ice but golf was great played all 27 holes

Exceeded expectations!

Was looking for a lower priced course after playing Hawks Landing and came across Royal St Cloud. After reading a few reviews I was a bit apprehensive. A few complaints but chalked it up to “complainers”. Took a shot and glad we did.

Played the “blue/red” nines and loved the layout. Course was in great shape. Green rolled true and really quick.

The staff in the pro shop and starter were super friendly. They even offered us to go out and play the “whites” for no charge. Nice touch for sure. Even the grounds crew took the time to chat and say hi. One even followed us up the fairway after I drove the short or 4 (little brag)

We played the first 18 in 3 hours flat starting at 7:30. The third 9 was a bit slower at 2 1/2 hours.

I have never seen so many rabbits on a golf course, they were everywhere. And lots of other wildlife. Birds and turtles etc.

I would recommend this course to everyone. I’m a 7 handicap and play 2-3 times a week in Canada.

Thanks again Royal St Cloud

Quality For the Money

We played as a twosome, scheduled a tee time about 2 weeks in advance, and when we arrived were told we'd have to play on another course due to a tournament. We were shifted around due to this tournament, which caused us to feel rushed by others also having to play the course. It was disappointing to pay $60 per person to be crammed into a tournament which was given priority, and the red course we played twice was not in good condition. Overall, really disappointed with our round regarding this situation and won't play this course for a while.

Issue w/ GolfNow

Course was very good.

Reservation w/ GolfNow had an issue. It was not forwarded to Royal St Cloud. My reservation was cancelled one day before schedule of play.

It was resolved after phone calls to GolfNow.

It was still annoying and frustrating.
