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.

Always a challenge but enjoyable!

I played here (Blue/Red) and enjoyed it, play was faster that time of year but the heat was stifling. March was much better weather while playing this time (Red/Blue), but the pace of play suffered. I would still come back due to the value of condition and layout. The carts we fast! Loved that!

What a treat

After playing 4 other courses this past week this was a pleasant surprise and in far better shape than any other courses. The greens were quick and very consistent. Enjoyed the course so much that we will play it again later this week

Absolute Challenging Course

Played Red/Blue and very well pleased with the missed opportunities for Birdie/Par golf!!! What I mean is the fairways except for one tight fairway were wide open for a very good look at second shots to the green even on par 5s which I literally got within 90 yards on second shots. Only 1 of the par 3s proved to be a head scratcher but overall the rolling hills and near perfect greens made this course in my opinion a must play!!!

Glacial but Fun

Too many tee times, pace is glacial, but course is fun for all levels. Greens look banged up but roll real well with consistent speed. Push the spacing to 12 minutes

This is a cool course with a unique Scottish layout, challenging depending on the Tee’s you select. Lots of wildlife, water and bunkers, nice practice facilities and clubhouse. A challenging layout but with enough latitude to keep it in play, fast greens, good conditions tee to green. Will definitely return.

PLAY EARLY

So there are a lot of reviews complaining about the pace of play and as a single who joined 3 members, they confirmed that the key is to play before 10:00 am because it’s gong to be a solid 5 hours.

I was shocked to show up at 6:15 am for a 6:36 am tee time because I’m not from FL, but it was DARK when I arrived. Sunrise was 6:54 am. So the shocker is, I wasn’t a part of the first group! Four groups had already teed off! I’m the dark! The parking lots was bustling. Staff was surprisingly chipper given the time of day and it was clear most of the people were members because there was a lot of laughter. So having said that, the three members who made up my foursome were about as nice a group of guys you can hope to be paired with.

Course condition. Excellent. Pace of play. A smooth 3:45. Course is forgiving. Greens rolled great. Did I mention $55! You’re all seeing these crazy Orlando rates! Triple that for a lesser course. Definitely the BEST bargain in town.

Nice But Too Slow

You can be a slow golfer, you can be a bad golfer, but you should never be both. Guy ahead of me was and a ball hawk at every water hazard along the way. Course and staff never disappoint for the money but could definitely use a few “player assistants”

Pace of play was horrible, 5 hour round is not okay. They have signage but no marshals to enforce.
