To Tee Or Not To Tee...

That is the question! Has anyone ever been golfing at Walt Disney World? What did you think? All information appreciatied!

Disney has beautiful golf courses that any golfer would enjoy. They are generally expensive to play but get much cheaper off-season which is the summer. There are also cheaper rates late in the day.

Magnolia course is home to the PGA's Funai Classic each October. So I guess that would be the most prestegious course. The adjoining Palm course is also used for qualifying rounds. Oak Trail is a 9-hole walking course in the same area. The LBV course is near Downtown Disney and has some beautiful views laced between various resorts in that area. The Bonnet Creek Golf Club features two separate courses....Osprey Ridge and Eagle Pines. These are in a secluded, heavily wooded area of WDW. I believe the latter is closing soon for the construction of a new Four Seasons resort.

Go for it! The courses at Disney are beautiful! My favorite was Eagle Pines/ Osprey Ridge. I have never seen such wildlife and beautiful birds on a golf course. Definitely worth it!

Definitely tee!!!!! They currently have 5 great courses. DW and I go to WDW at least once a year and we ALWAYS play golf. Our favorite courses are Osprey Ridge and Eagle Pines but sometime this year they will be closed to make way for the Four Seasons Resort.

There are a number of discount programs available for Disney golf. Annual pass holders have a discount available and DVC members can purchase a golf membership for $50.00 that gives discounted rates for play after 10am. I also see from your tag line that you are Floridia residents. There is also a Floridia resident membership or discount available.

Go For It and enjoy

Definitely tee!!!!!

I agree go and enjoy Disney's 99-holes of golf. But if you want to try Eagle Pines, you should plan on doing that by August. That is when I have heard the course will be closing to make room for the new Four Seasons Resort. And if you golf at Eagle Pines or Osprey Ridge, then stop in the Sand Trap Bar & Grill for something before or after.

DH golfs almost every day at WDW. We just got back last night and he'd played LBV, EP, and Magnolia this trip. The courses are always excellent, but his favorite is probably LBV (except on the 10th and 11th with the SSR noise there). THis past week, he and DS were the first off the day they played EP, so they got to choose the pin placement on the 18th green. They got their picture taken and a certificate-DS's idea of a Dream!
