Evermore Orlando Resort
About Evermore Orlando Resort
The former Grand Cypress Resort, which featured the luxurious Villas at Grand Cypress, has been a popular part of the Orlando resort and golf scene since the 1980s. It is in the midst of a comprehensive long-term renovation and rebranding to become the Evermore Orlando Resort. Both the Villas of Grand Cypress and the 27-hole Jack Nicklaus course that hosted the LPGA Tour are gone, but the New Course, also by the Golden Bear, remains open, as does the large Hyatt Grand Cypress hotel. Evermore hopes to debut in summer 2023. Read more about the project here.Facts

Your approach to the 8th at Grand Cypress New needs to cross a burn, and you'll drive your cart over a stone bridge toward the green. Kitschy? Sure, but chalk it up to commitment to a certain aesthetic. Photo submitted by TimGavrichGP on 08/31/2018

The new course is great !!!
The course was well manicured and the staff was above board in reference to Customer Service. I really appreciate them working on Christmas, Would definitely play this course again.
Great Links Experience
If you are looking for a true links course in the US this is the one. Most North American courses that say they are links just hold a few aspects of links golf. Maybe a pot bunker or two, or a couple rolling fairways. Very rarely are they true links. This course was as close as I've ever played. If you were to transport this design to Britain, and say it was 100 years old, I would believe you.
Overall, it was a great experience and a great course. Amenities were okay. There was a range but nothing special. But I would certainly recommend this course. It is a fun, different type of golf that you are sure to enjoy.
Best course in Disney area
Great Great course , reminds me of good Scottish courses
WOW - A real thinking course
I finally played Jack Nicklaus tribute to the Old Course and I was thoroughly impressed. To play a course where you are not sure the correct line on your drive makes one think, I love that. This is not an automatic here the only fairway for this hole, there are multiple angles to the hole from the fairways. And I love the double greens complexes, there is certain community on the golf course that you are never far from other players. The conditions - outstanding, the mental level of golf is always on high alert, the layout - awesome. This should be on any golfer's bucket list to play. My only regret is that everyone takes a cart, this would be even better as a walking only course. The clubhouse is excellent and a little pricey - but the food was so well prepared that I felt I received my money's worth. Great 19th hole view of the surrounding golf courses and an awesome staff at the restaurant that never let our drinks empty.
Great course and fun!
We played after heavy rain and to our surprise there are no cart paths along the fairways so we could drive on the fairways! Fun course and every green is a double green. They are very large and challenging. There are very few trees on the course so higher handicap players are not always looking for balls. Lots of sand traps everywhere to make up for no trees. We will be back to play again!
Great experience
The course was in excellent condition. It’s a links course so I had a little trouble following the fairway turns. A local twosome joined me and and made it easier. No GPS on my cart but my golf app was helpful . Ample distance markers on the course. The greens have a lot of challenges but are not super fast. A must play course if you are in the area.
Start times are a joke
This is a great course. We've played it the last two years on our annual golf trip to Orlando. Last year we didn't tee off until 30 minutes after our tee time. This past Tuesday we wait 70 minutes before teeing off. Based on my experience I wouldn't recommend this course on a remotely tight time schedule.
Beautiful Nichlas Course
Great links course and great conditions. It can be a bit challenging for higher handicappers. Foursome in front of us wisely decided to play a scramble format. We heard a lot of laughs from them. This beautiful course can be enjoyed by all.
We really enjoyed this course & its links features. We would highly recommend here & suggest that it is playable for all handicaps. We also found the staff here were excellent especially the starters.
Beautiful and in very good shape
So tough and windy
Staff very friendly
I played every time in Orlando
Wonderful Replica of Saint Andrews
This is a great opportunity to try your golfing skills on almost true links style course and conditions. The fairways run on the hard and fast side and there are plenty of tight lies around the greens. The wind was up but the balmy weather betrayed the location. The staff was friendly and couldn’t do enough for us. Will definitely play it again.
Excellent golf course! Great value for the money.
I got the chance the play the New Course this week while tagging along for my wife's business trip. This is the first time I've played a links style course. It's very different from the type of courses I play in the Washington DC area. What a fun experience! The fairways were wide open but you have to be precise or you'll end up in a bunker. The greens were fast and challenging. The course itself was immaculate and the staff were are very friendly. The price was excellent given the quality of the course. The only downside was the the pace of play was slow. However, that was expected at a resort course. I'd highly recommend to course to anyone.
Great course, marginal pace
I played the Cypress New course for the first time. Pro shop staff were very friendly and accomodating. Course is busy but the front nine moved along swiftly, cart girls were plentiful. Back nine was the antithesis. A foursome jumped in and slowed play down that caused me to leave after 16...at that point it was a 4:20 round and I was playing as a single! On the back nine you couldn't get as much as a bottle of water as the cart girls disappeared.
Outstanding layout and design!!
Came in town to visit a friend and wanted to play the New Course for a while now. The course did not disappoint. It was a slow round but I expected as much with the small amount of morning tee times available. Nevertheless, it was worth every minute and penny I spent.
The course is a true links style course. Greens are tricky and fast but the fairways are wide open.
The staff was excellent. Everyone was friendly and it felt like a high end resort course. Would love to play again when in the area next time.
A little slow
The turn was a little slow to get going.
We did finish in 4.5hrs mind you. Considering the area and the number of casual golfers that visit we were surprised that we got finished in less then 5 hrs. This was our 6th round of the week in the area and our slowest but the course was enjoyable and the staff did what they could to keep it going.
I personally found the course challenging with no real visual clues as to where to place the shot off the tee.
On 7 it would be nice to see some red stakes in front of the water hazard because it is difficult to see.
Shot my best round of the week so that gives this review a little bias. Friend had a great time and we enjoyed the conditions and the fact we got a decent rate on GolfNow.
14 holds in 4 hours and 40 minutes!
Got stuck behind 4 groups of hacks, deciding to putt everything out. Searched for lost balls for 8 to 10 minutes, then had to return to the tee box to hit “3”. Marshall’s were aware that they were playing it out, and kept telling us that as if that made it acceptable. Seriously!? When three of their groups clogged up the 15th, we headed in at one over par. Plenty of daylight left to have finished, but enough was enough! The more they drank from the bar cart, the worse it got. I hope your course made a fortune on these hacks, but you got your last green fee from me.
A "must do" golf experience!
Visiting from Oregon! First it's a true "links" course! Double wide fairways, double HUGH greens with 2 flags! Play yellow out, white in. AND STAY OUT OF THE POT BUNKERS!
Wife and I loved it! Both 18 hc's and shot 93/88. Greens are tough and course management a must. Forget your driver on the range, work on your short irons! Greens were excellent, very fast! Some of the pin locations were brutal.
Will definitely play again next Florida vacation!
