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.

Only complaint is Pace of play

Had a 7:15 tee time. I live in Florida, and play a different course every week. I would love to come here more often, but every time I come back, I'm reminded of why I don't. 4hr rounds for tee times before 7:30 is the exception, as we usually play in 3.5hrs or less at other courses. By 8am, it's a 5hr round and you're watching and waiting for the group in front of you. While I love the staff and the layout, the slow play is enough to send me somewhere else in the golf capital of the world. Hopefully one day they'll get those slow early bird golfers moving, because if your fast players, 1st out, are playing 4hr rounds, the 5hr round for prime time golfers is a guarantee.

Doesn’t Miss!

This course is ALWAYS in great condition from tee to green. Not very much else to say about that. Every time I come here it always nice and that’s why it’s so hard to find a decent tee time here. Rates are more than reasonable. The pace of play was HORRIBLE today though. We got behind a really slow group and there was no ranger in site. We literally played a 5 hour round. But I’ll be back LOL

Incredible value compared to others

How they keep that much fairway, that green, mowed that tight is amazing. Particularly on White. Quality of conditions mixed with an interesting layout for these prices compared to what other courses locally are charging is the best value I've found. Will be back.

Greens were slower than expected

Always a great course, but the greens were slower than they usually play. The wind blew steady all day, but it was a fun day. We’ll be back.

Great Conditions! Pace of play not so great.

RSC is always a great course to play and it was in great condition this week. The pace of play was ridiculously slow for a Tuesday late morning round.

They need a ranger that can actually help the situation.

Best darn course for the money

We play here 3-5 weeks a year at least 3 times during those weeks because we feel it’s the best golf course for the money in Orlando. Very helpful and friendly staff, interesting and varied course layout and good conditions.

The tee boxes could use a little better manicuring but the greens are true and fair and only a few bare spots on the fairways mainly along the periphery.

As long as they don’t raise the prices like other similar courses in the area have, we will keep coming back 3-4 times each week we play in Orlando.

Keep up the excellent work folks.

It must have been a bad day

My experience started at the start when I pulled up dropped my bag at the bag drop parked my vehicle and turn around is I guess was a starter one of these staff members yelled at me are you playing or you just practicing I responded that I was going to play he said oh and drove away first time visiting the place no one asked name tee time do you have a tee time so I wandered into the pro shop to found I guess the most bored teenager in Florida history at the register who said absolutely nothing so I didn't volunteer at my name and tee time she looked mystified as she looked from her computer to the register and I mentioned it was prepaid through golf now she nodded her head she was missing everything except for the bubble gum handed me a slip no directions on where to go no one to see no welcome to our club it was amateurs I walk out ask which card should I use they gave me a card send me in the directions of the colored arrow did I did not even know that the group right behind me was playing a completely different game whether the course itself was set up for playing for juniors with some type of disk in the middle of the fairway it was just now the course itself Nice magical layout spotty in some places maintenance some greens some fairways could use a lot of attention
