What are the best Walt Disney World resorts for golfers?

Disney for Golfers

Common recommendations: the military discount resort Shades of Green, plus the Disney Resorts Old Key West, The Contemporary and Polynesian Resorts, the Grand Floridian and Port Orleans Resorts. Shades of Green and the Polynesian resort are right in the middle of three courses.

Oak Trail has nine holes and is rated for beginners. The other five Disney courses are for mid-level handicappers, and are quite forgiving. There are driving ranges and putting greens at each location. Morning tee times are the most popular, especially Jan-April.

Avoid crowds by playing on Monday, Tues or Wed and sign up for an afternoon tee time. Carts are required (except at Oak Trail) and included in fees. Reserve tee times up to 60 days ahead. Walt Disney World Resort guests get discounted greens fees, and free club transport between courses. When making reservations, ask if free transportation from your resort is included. This is a voucher for round-trip taxi service – much faster than the shuttle bus, and much more convenient than moving your car.
