I’m sure you already know that you will be spoilt for choice with literally hundreds of really great public courses in Florida, however I thought I’d mention a few of my favourites so that if you’ve not played in Florida before it will give you a few pointers as to the courses that are local to the Disney area.
I would also recommend that before you go out to Florida you check the individual golf club websites as many of them have special deals if you book in advance and online. Some also offer great packages if you commit to playing so many rounds during your stay. We’ve taken advantage of the online booking but we prefer to try different courses each time we visit, although we do still return to some old favourites!
Falcons Fire Golf Club at 200 Seralago Blvd in Kissimmee.
This was one of my absolute favourites, the course was in great condition and customer service was second to none. We took advantage of the twilight rates by teeing off just after 3pm. It’s a fairly flat course and can get a little windy. The golf cart was fitted with global positioning and I’m really looking forward to a return visit.
Kissimmee Bay Country Club at 2801 Kissimmee Bay Circle Kissimmee.
This was a really reasonably priced course. The course itself is interesting although when we played the greens were a little patchy but this was made up for by some of the best strategic holes I’ve ever played. There’s also a nice driving range here.
Orange Lake Country Club at 8505 Irlo Bronson Mem. Hwy. west Kissimmee.
This is a spectacular course and incredibly well maintained, greens, tees and fairways. The rough is just that . . rough! Making it a great challenge too!
Remington Golf Club 2995 Remington Blvd Kissimmee.
They do great food in the club house – this is one of the few clubs I’ve managed to have time to try the food at, but I would recommend you try and make time. It has a great variety of holes and is challenging
Southern Dunes Golf and Country Club at 2888 Southern Dunes Blvd Haines City.
Another club that offers excellent dining – you don’t have to play golf to use the restaurant.
We got a great deal online and the course was in fantastic condition, my only complaint was that the greens were a little slow, but we had a great time and I would still recommend you try it.
