Opened in 1998 as a tribute to golf legend Arnold Palmer and hotel business legend Kemmons Wilson, Orange Lake's Legends Course has quickly become one of Orlando's most popular courses. Laid out by Palmer Course Design, the course provides two distinct nine-hole layouts. The front side has been named The Links Nine for its open feel, which reminds one of playing the great links of Scotland and Ireland. The back nine, or The Pines, has tight, tree-lined fairways similar to the great American layouts in the Pinehurst area of North Carolina. Combined, the course provides an extremely entertaining and challenging round of golf, with water bordering on just 10 holes. How about 36 holes? The Reserve, 5 minutes away!
Fees for golf only: from $49 to $109, depending upon the day of week and season of the year.
