Good track

I’ve always enjoyed the Disney courses (especially the Palm) which are operated by the Palmer group. The Palm is in good shape with quick greens, lush tee boxes, and uniformly healthy fairways. However, for the price they charge (up to $150!) such conditions should be expected. According to the GPS, expected pace of play is around 4:20 which is reasonable for a weekend round. Our group was right on it even though we waited on a number of holes. One thing I appreciate about The Palm is that they have strategically placed restrooms/water stations that have ice/water dispensers unlike most courses that simply have unsanitary water fountains. Bottom line is if you don’t mind paying a premium for a round of golf, you won’t be disappointed with The Palm.

Beautiful area

Enjoyed the round even though the course was pretty wet after lots of rain recently. Really nice homes surrounding the course and only a few holes were cart path only.

No marshaling pace of play. We lost interest on the back 9 and we’re over half hour behind recommended pace of play Saw the course Marshall once who didn’t help out

I wish they had a combo tee for Ladies.

The course was very wet from overnight rain. Cart path only which was understandable given the conditions but it certainly takes some of the enjoyment out of the round and slows down play.

A nice course. Greens were very slow. Layout is good.

It's a common complaint for me on Disney courses, but i really wish you had some combo tees, to give Lady golfers a choice of tee beds.

On Palm, LBV and Magnolia, the front tees are between 5100 to 5200 and the next tee bed is around 6000 yards. You then have 3 or 4 tee beds at 4-5 hundred yard intervals.

Basically the guys have a choice of 4 or 5 tee beds at 400-500 yard intervals, and the Ladies have 1, as 6000 yards is too far for most Ladies.

Course is great shape

The course is only 14 holes right now as the last 4 holes are being renovated. Carts have GPS and when I played the greens were super fast but the whole course was in great condition. A bonus was the beers were reasonable at $5 each or 6 for $25.

Magnolia

Not ready for a full review with half the course. It's hard to rate a course that has the last 4 holes UC. (Under Construction) and not to be advised before making a reservation and paying full price for it. Finding out right when you check in.

What option would you have? Leave. Drive back or play 14 holes. At least I shot my best score!
