Recommendations for golf on one of the Disney courses?

[mommie2angels]

I am not sure where this post belongs. If it's not here I am sorry. I just thought most of the courses are linked to the resorts so I thought I would start here. Does anyone have any recommendations on what course to play? I know they will all be wonderful. I saw a discount for annual pass holders and for late in the day. Are there any other types of discounts out there? Thanks in advance for any help!

People have lots of opinions on their favorite courses, but all the courses are great for golfers of all skill levels.

Lake Buena Vista - Easier course. Surrounded by OKW resort. Not the prettiest.

Palm - One of the course used by the pros. Tends to be a little tough because it's narrow. Not overly long though. Very pretty.

Magnolia - The main course for the PGA tournament. Not as narrow as the Palm, but it is longer. It is the course iwth the Mickey Mouse sand trap. I've only played it once, and it ate me up.

Eagle Pines - A Pete Dye course. Not long. Not too tough, but it can be intimidating.

Osprey Ridge - A Tom Fazio course. A little on the tougher side. You can think your way around this course. By far my favorite of the 6.

Oak Trail - A 9 hole course. I haven't played it, so I can't say if I'd like it. It should be similar to Magnolia and Palm.

Depending when you take your trip, there are different rates in effect.

Thru the end of September:
If you tee off between 3-5 PM the fee is $30
If you tee after 5 PM the fee is $25

From what I have read, all of the courses are very nice and depending upon personal preference what might be my favorite will be your least favorite.

My DS and I are playing Magnolia on our upcoming trip. Magnolia has water on 11 holes and has 98 bunkers. If you dispise water and sand, you might want to play another course.

I think it depends on your skill level.

The Lake Buena Vista course has the narowest fairways while Osprey Ridge seems to have the widest.
