Royal St. Cloud Golf Links is home to three unique nines, all of which replicate the feel of a classic links course much like the world-famous Old Course at St. Andrews. The Blue/Red golf course features sod bunkers and wood-faced bunkers stacked in true Scottish tradition. In keeping with the links style, there are very few trees throughout Royal St. Cloud Golf Links. The Red nine was enhanced though to make a more player-friendly round. Golfers of any skill level can find their place on the golf course, but be prepared to use every club in your bag. There are also extensive practice facilities including a putting green, short game area with practice bunkers, and a lighted driving range.

One of a Kind

We played the red and white nines, which I thought were both in great shape. Overall, this course is definitely an outlier in central Florida golf, in a good way. It forces you to play links-style golf, and has quirky things sprinkled throughout the course (bright red telephone booths, golf ball vending machines on par threes, etc.), which gives the course a ton of personality. It's not trying to be pretentious, and provides excellent value and a wonderful experience, as a result.

Great bang for the buck

First round of 2026 and i wanted to play somewhere new and would be easy on me. RSC didn’t disappoint. All of the staff was super friendly and assisted in my day. Paired up with a threesome. Course definitely looks like it gets a lot of play but greens rolled smooth, tee boxes had good enough grass. Layout is very interesting and fun. May head back out Monday before I leave.

GO HOME HACKS AND SNOWBIRDS!!

Some of yall need to understand that the driving range exists for a reason and you don’t hit 500 balls on course. Some of us have places to be! It’s okay to not be great at golf but don’t suck at the expense of others afternoons. Slow play and bad golfers is a bad combo and it’s all you get here. Staff needs to do better at keeping pace smooth or maybe be less money hungry and space out tee times a little more. Typical FL public course experience. Meh.

DIFFICULT, & It WILL BE SLOW

For the price, this is a great club. If you like playing fast, which i do, maybe consider another course, or not Fri,Sat,Sun here! The pro shop is nice. There are starters at the slub, and in front of each of the 3 9's. The grass is great, everything is maintained. I typically shoot 85-100... I shot 101 today. It's difficult. Grass is maintained. Fairways and rough is nearly immaculate. Waste areas are about 3.5/5. Greens are fast, and honestly PICK UP YOUR PITCH DIVOTS!!! That is my only "grounds" complaint, and that's not on staff, it's on players. I think maybe the staff can just drill it in a bit better. Got paired with locals a bit older than me, they were great, and ran into, and paired with some teens on the back white. Another friend of theirs was playing another hole, and joined with us. They mostly knew golf etiquette, but fixing divots wasn't in their head. One of the kids (probably 12 years old) asked what I was doing on the green, and where those marks came from! They are kids, but I'd love if the staff just started drilling a bit more course care into them. Also there was a wedding, and the party came ONTO THE FAIRWAY as we were trying to tee off! That held us and the group behind up at least 10 minutes, and this course is already pretty backed up.

Great Course, but has routing problems.

The course is well-designed and maintained. The most significant negative is that it has 27 holes. The pace of play is painfully slow. The first tee on each nine is backed up with new players beginning their rounds while others are making the turn.

4 Stars? I have to set the record straight.

Royal St Clond Golf Links RSC is one of the best values in Central Florida. My group plays weekly around the Orlando region seeking the best value, course availability and dodging weather. We would play RSC every week except that its hard to get morning tee times because its so popular and its a little longer drive. The course has a reputation for great conditions year round and fast, true greens. RSC is a winter hot spot for annual snowbirds and the word is out locally about the great value.

I hesitate to give praise because tee times are already tough to get but I had to setthe record straight.

The Red is challenging and long

This is the newest course. Playing much longer than score card. Some of the par 4’s are playing over 400yards for seniors and women with some ridiculous length as well on at least 1 par 3. The Blue was amazing! Tough but fair. Course was in great shape. Needs to fill tee times. Singles and doubles getting upset with pace of play with a standard foursome but not allowed to wave them through either.

Excellent course in great condition. Love the layout of the mounds on White course. It’s a bit far from home but well worth the trip.
