WALT DISNEY WORLD GOLF:
The Walt Disney World Resort has five 18-hole championship golf courses and one 9-hole, par 36, walking course all designed by masters of the trade. The Walt Disney World Golf Courses play host to an annual PGA TOUR event and have been recognized as a Gold Medal Golf Resort by Golf Magazine.

Disney’s Grand Plan vacation package includes unlimited golf, lessons, green fees, electric cart, range balls, FootJoy golf shoes and rental clubs per person. Titleist/Cobra golf clubs and FootJoy golf shoes require a photo ID for rental. A $500 deposit for each set of golf clubs is required on an authorized major credit card. Limit two (2) sets of rental clubs per credit card.

Proper golf attire is required - a shirt with a collar and Bermuda length shorts or slacks. Golf shoes are recommended but not required. Soft or spikeless golf cleats are permitted on the courses.

Complimentary transportation is provided to and from Walt Disney World Resort owned and operated hotels. Please see the valet desk or bell services to arrange pickup times. Guests under 16 years of age must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. There is no age restriction at Disney’s Oak Trail Golf Course.

Please call 407-WDW-GOLF (407-939-4653) for all golf reservations. An accepted major credit card is required for booking.

DISNEY’S LAKE BUENA VISTA GOLF COURSE:
Styled in a classic country club setting, Disney’s Lake Buena Vista Golf Course meanders through dense pine forests. Characterized by small, slightly elevated, well-bunkered greens, the course demands accurate shot-making. Add an island green on the 7th, and it all adds up to a great golfing experience.

DISNEY’S EAGLE PINES GOLF COURSE:
Low, “dish-shaped” fairways and vast sand beds give this Pete Dye designed course a unique look and an equally unique challenge. The concave fairways maintain proper drainage into the natural wetland areas that are prevalent throughout the course - in fact, 16 holes boast water. Disney’s Eagle Pines Golf Course is a visually intimidating course, but a complete joy to play.

DISNEY’S OSPREY RIDGE GOLF COURSE:
Tom Fazio used the beautiful tropical wilderness surrounding Disney’s Osprey Ridge Golf Course to create a serene atmosphere, but this uniquely styled course challenges players from the moment they step onto the first tee. This design contrasts with its counterpart, Disney’s Eagle Pines Golf Course, by offering dramatically elevated tees and greens, nine water holes, and more than 70 strategically placed bunkers.

DISNEY’S MAGNOLIA GOLF COURSE:
Disney’s Magnolia Golf Course is the longest of the Disney courses. Designed by Joe Lee in classic PGA TOUR style, the wide fairways invite you to hit the ball, and hit it hard! But beware - 11 of the 18 holes boast water, and 97 bunkers dot the landscape and guard the medium-to-large, undulating greens. This beautifully manicured course is aptly named for its more than 1,500 magnolia trees. Disney’s Magnolia Golf Course hosts the National Car Rental Golf Classic at the Walt Disney World Resort.

DISNEY’S PALM GOLF COURSE:
Disney’s Palm Golf Course offers tree-lined fairways, elevated tees and greens, and boasts more than its share of water and sand with nine water holes and 94 bunkers. Disney’s Palm Golf Course plays host to the Pro-Am competition during the National Car Rental Golf Classic at the Walt Disney World Resort.

DISNEY’S OAK TRAIL GOLF COURSE:
Disney’s Oak Trail Golf Course, our nine-hole, par 36 walking course, is noted for the small, undulating greens and elevated tees. Surrounded by thick vegetation and wildlife, it is perfect for those who enjoy walking a course and soaking up the scenery. Shots shouldn’t be approached too casually. Disney’s Oak Trail greens have been labeled some of the most challenging at the Walt Disney World Resort.

PRIVATE GOLF LESSONS:
Private 30-minute golf lessons from our PGA Professional Staff are available by appointment. Please call 407-WDW-GOLF (407-939-4653) for reservations.
