Shoots in the 80s

Played this course in February & loved it. As others have said, having the houses at every turn does somewhat detract from the experience, but overall it is a very nice course. Played at about 6300 yards from my tees, with a slope rating of 129. It was well bunkered but not as difficult or as penal as I thought it might be.

Where I thought this course really shined was on the greens, which were fast (10 on Stimpmeter according to staff) and rolled very true. All of the Disney courses have nice greens but these were simply superb. I putted well that day and so it's easier to write a good review, but then again, it's a lot easier to putt well on well groomed greens that roll true and are consistent from hole to hole.

Customer Service

Disney. Enough said. To translate, that means we were treated like royalty from the minute we got there to the minute we left. Everything about the atmosphere and service was first class.

Shoots in the 90s

Played Lake Buena Vista three times this summer and Eagle Pines once. Both great courses - well maintained - plenty of water - was available and it was a more than a golf outing but a true experience each time

Customer Service

10+++ Just can't say enough about the cusomter service that is there. From time you drive up until you depart it is with out a doubt the best I have ever experience in Florida. When my golfing buds gather we still talk about the Disney customer service....

Shoots in the 90s

played both the Magnolia course and the Osprey Ridge course. Both were beautiful, fun courses. Actually felt like Osprey is the better of the courses. Layout was much more fun. Courses were difficult. Experience was wonderful. Throughout round Wild turkeys and deer run across your path. Pretty neat distraction from the awful score i put up. GPS on carts was nice touch.

Customer Service

no problems. would have expected nicer clubhouse/proshop though.

Shoot in the 90s

I played on the Palm course at WDW Resorts. This was probably the hardest course I have ever played, but I loved every painful minute of it. It was amazing to see the difference between a well kept "PGA use" course, and the local muni course. The fairways were perfect, the greens even better, and the course was a great challenge. This course is definitely humbling, but if you relax and enjoy your surroundings, your score will no longer matter. This course takes golf from being an game, and turns it into an experience.

Customer Service

The customer service her was excellent. They treat you like kings.

Shoot in the 90s

I played the Buena Vista course which is one of four or five that Disney runs. I found this course to be one of the easier and more unremarkable course I have played. The fairways are wide and well manicured. The scenery is for the most part plain. Many of the holes are lined by condos and villas which really take away from course. There were not any specfic holes that stood out in my memory. Buena Vista has the usual course features like blind shots, an island green, big dog legs which are easy to cut down.
