Great course. Fairways, greens and overall quality course
Cheap in the summer.
If you don't mind the heat you can great prices during the summer season. Unfortunately the front nine is under repair.
Left a 7 iron somewhere and it was not turned in, nor did staff put in much effort to find. My mistake but it would have helped the rating. Course was in decent shape given the season.
Aog
Staff was short handed, but very professional. Great golf experience!
First time playing since they reopened the back 9. The course has come back some from poor conditions earlier this season. The work on the back 9 continues, but improvements have already been made to the sand traps. The white soft sand is a big improvement. I like this course and hope they continue the work to raise it back to excellent conditions. I will play it again.
Felt ripped off
Booked online it was non refundable and when I got there I found out why. Had to play same 9 holes twice and greens were recently aerated and sandy. I was charged about $100 I could have played at Grand Cypress and Disney both for that, which I did the next 2 days. I realize that courses need maintenance but this should have been disclosed up front. Go somewhere else.
Challenging course
Excellent course to play and very challenging for any level of golfer.
Played in the Tee-Lo Scramble and the course was in great shape. Greens rolled very nicely. The pace of play was very bad given it was a scramble. I will definitely be back to play the course again given the better shape it was in from the last time I had played it.
Very Nice & Fun Layout
The course is continuing to improve its condition from where it had fallen to. This is a great layout with some stiff challenges but you will enjoy.
Great example for all night courses!
This course exceeded my expectations. When my buddies said I was playing a night executive course, I was not anticipating such a nice facility. The layout was fun, and the greens were on the smaller side which made for a great challenge. I would recommend this course to the scratch golfer and the once in a blue moon golfer. Very fun!
Played a night golf round. The course was in excellent condition, even with rain all week long. There was a great mixture of short and long holes, but all conditions were in great shape. I would play here every Friday if my schedule would allow it!
Great on so many levels.
Great fun with a group of 20 at the lighted 9 hole walking course! Course conditions are surprisingly good, the pull carts (which are included) glide effortlessly across the well-maintained cart paths and fairways. Greens, tee boxes, and bunkers are all in great shape. This course is a hidden gem that is great for all ages and skill levels!
Decent course for the price
If your looking for a fun cheap place to play an extra round on vacation I would play here. The greens are very good and they were in the process of putting new sand in the bunkers when I played here.
Disappointed
We've play several times since we moved here in 2014. Poor drainage from all the rain, maintenance - weren't notified(that's why it was cheap $12pp), hole #2 only has one tee box, there use to be other tee boxes but, for some reason, they took them away. Were told we can't play in our golf sandals (we always did) but, they let us go this time. Don't think we'll be back until the winter when we have to wear golf shoes.
Lovely 9 hole par 3 course
We played the Legends Walk course at Orange Lakes twice in one day. Once at 8:40 AM and once at 7PM. Both rounds were booked via GolfNow app. I rang ahead as I was unsure where we should go to check in as it is a huge complex. Terence was an excellent host and was standing outside the pro shop at 8:30 AM to welcome us. He also gave us a free club hire ticket when I mentioned we might be back the same day to play again in the evening.
The course is very pleasant to play, especially if you have younger golfers in your family as I do. Lots of wildlife such as cranes and vultures to be seen as you make your way round. The fact that it is floodlit makes it even more accessible - we didn't need the lights until the 8th hole for our evening round and they were not on when we needed them, however they switched on after about 5-10 minutes and enabled us to complete the course. I would say I enjoyed the evening round more as the temperature was more comfortable.
Overall playing this course was a thoroughly enjoyable experience for both myself and my 12 year old son. Club hire was $15 each - I was given a 12 club full set and my son was given a 5 club junior set. I didn't want half the clubs in the bag since this is only a par 3 course but Terence explained they had to be hired like that and since we had trolleys no problem. Each round came in at around $25 for the pair of us so given that we had free club hire for the evening round it was extremely good value for us as well. Golf trolleys (not carts) were also included so all in all a good deal for Florida golf I think.
We would play here again when we are back next time - perhaps trying the slightly longer 'Crane Bend' course instead.
Good course to play at least once
Good course conditions; challenging Arnold Palmer course design; but lacking in certain amenities like a dedicated clubhouse and convenient on course services (ie. refreshment cart was almost non existent during the round and when it arrived it had a very limited supply of items)
No management
I am a local player who plays all around central Florida. We typically try and find the best deals in the summer because you can play for so cheap compared to peak season. This will be my last time playing orange lake. It's totally fine that we were following a tournament. Heck, our tee time was at 930. My problem was there was no starter to pair anyone up and we didn't see a player assistant the entire time. The front side played at 2hr 45mins. When I went into the pro shop at the turn I saw at least 4 golf professionals Hammin it up in an office. Not a clue of what was going on out on the course. Retention is huge for golf, especially in central Florida where you have a golf course within every mile of your location.
Very Nice Course. Excelent Design
Played here a few times through the years. Love the layout. (Arnold Palmer Design) The course is usually in very good condition. It was in excellent condition the day we played. Was raining off and on during the afternoon, but the course still played well. Better to play on a dry day. Got a great hot deal on golf now. Will keep Orange Lake Legends in the rotation.
Fantasic Layout
This was my first time playing at this course, we were in town on vacation at Orange Lake Resort. I found the green fees to be very reasonable for this caliber of golf course, if I lived in the area I would play here every day. This is my first time playing an Arnold Palmer golf course and I found the layout to be awesome as well. I found the course conditions to be rather dry and some areas of the fairways and greens were burned up pretty good but I understand there apparently was a drought this summer so I can't judge on that. The sand traps were in great shape. The greens seemed a little slow and hard to read but I'm also not too familiar with this type of grass so maybe that's a thing. It's all bentgrass and bluegrass where I'm from. I thought the club rental price was a bit too high, I called a few places and it was the highest in the area but the green fees were cheap so it was a wash. I tried to stop in early one evening to look around and make a tee time but the pro shop was closed, that was rather inconvenient. I made my tee time online so it all worked out. All in all I would definitely play here again if I ever return. It's a beautiful course and a fun challenge.
