Orlando's ChampionsGate golf facility possesses two regulation 18-hole courses, the National Course and the International Course.

    I couldnt find my ball everytime I hit it in the rough, which was half of the time. This golf course was not well maintained and was to penalizing. There are alot of golf course that are way better than this one in orlando. DONT PLAY AT THIS COURSE.

    The course was not in good condition. Whether you have a high handicap or low, if you are not on your game; not hitting it straight, which most of us dont do, you will be penalized. The high grass (3 ft) which is 10 paces past the rough (6in) is not a course I would recommend for anyone. There is no fun in looking for your ball for serveral minutes even after the ball rolls from fairway to rough. My friend and I shoot our normal scores and were mad at the end of our round. All golf courses should be designed to be challenging and enjoyable to play. This was not enjoyable, I saw the frustration in other golfers as the day passed. Recommendation... Cut the rough and high grass to a more reasonable height and maintain the greens a little better, you will have a more enjoyable golf experience from your patrons and higher ratings.

    I played this years ago and found it too penal. Over the years they have filled in most of the waste areas and got rid of the tall grass rough. It no longer looks very international except for pot bunkers, but it is very well laid out and fun to play now. Very friendly staff. Nice 5600 yd tees for seniors.

    Nice layout, but in a extremly poor condition. The grass grows totally wild. No fun to play especially with so many top spots around. Not worth the money.
