Description:
BAY HILL. This outstanding course is basically private, however guests of the resort are allowed to play without being accompanied by a member. These wide fairways will allow you to get aggressive off the tee. For those that like to take chances, this course provides several opportunities to gamble on shots that can either pay off nicely or penalize you severely. These greens are firm and guarded by mounds and bunkers, so high, soft approach shots will have the best chance of holding the green. |

Description:
HAINES CITY. This demanding course is extremely long from the tips, so pick carefully the tees you play. Multiple tees allow golfers of all abilities to enjoy this outstanding track. Tee shots are welcomed by wide fairways, but a number of bunkers and difficult rough await those shots that miss the short grass. The greens are large, undulating and very quick, so expect some difficult putts if you put the ball on the wrong side of the green. |

Description:
LAKE MARY. This course features the classical Scottish links-style design on the front nine with rolling fairways, pot bunkers and open, windswept areas. The back nine features more traditional course characteristics with mature trees, woodland areas, and doglegs. More generous than the back, the front will allow for a wider range of shots. The back will require accurate placement off the tee for a good line to the green. |

Magic Kingdom / Disney Village, Lake Buena Vista 32830 • 407-938-4653 |
|
|

Description:
LAKE BUENA VISTA. This course is a fair test for all golfers. From the tips, this course annually challenges some of the PGA Tour's best as the host site of the Oldsmobile Classic, but it also sets up well for the mid- and high-handicappers. Elevated tees overlook wide fairways and some blind shots come into the picture as a number of these greens are elevated. This course is pure Disney – all the way down to the Mickey Mouse shaped trees. |
