Detailed description of Disney World - Lake Buena Vista
Lake Buena Vista Club Course at Walt Disney World Golf Complex, is a Resort, 99 hole golf course located in Lake Buena Vista, Florida.
The Lake Buena Vista Club Course at Walt Disney World Golf Complex first opened for play in 1972. The course was designed by Joseph L. Lee.
Styled after a traditional country club, the Lake Buena Vista course lets a golfer wander through dense pine forests and winds through some of the resort's residential areas. Golf course designer Joe Lee's course design is characterized by small, slightly elevated, well-protected bunkered greens that force the golfer to make accurate shots to score well. This course is one of only a few that has actually hosted a PGA Tour event, an LPGA Tour event, and a USGA event. This course has an island green to shoot at on the beautiful 7th hole that will challenge any golfer. Lake Buena Vista Golf Course is short and tight, but the views and fairways are wide and open.

This is definitely THE best of the Disney Resort courses, condition of course, staff ambiance all top drawer. Food/bar facilities have suffered somewhat by the change in management. Could be improved and a little more guest friendly.

I had the best time of my life there. It is really a great course. Its difficult but I love the short par 3/s on it. Its worth every penny and has a amazing driving range. Great scenery throughout the Vacation Club Drive. Goes trough 3 amazing hotels. Starts at the ever wonderful Saratoga Springs then comes Old key West resort after that is the Port Orleans and you finally return to Saratoga Springs to finish it off at the Turf Club bar and grill. Its the best time ever.

Very basic, not too hilly, great for a mid handicapper, fair price. i would play it again but would rather try one of the other courses at Disney.

More of a flat course. Pretty straight forward. Passes through Old Key West at WDW, and starts/finishes at Saratoga Springs at WDW.
