About

Holes 18
Type Public
Par 72
Length 7023 yards
Slope 140
Rating 74.5

The 18-hole Celebration Golf Club in Celebration, FL is a public golf course that opened in 1996. Designed by Robert Trent Jones, Jr. and Robert Trent Jones, Sr., Celebration Golf Club measures 7038 yards from the longest tees and has a slope rating of 140 and a 74.5 USGA rating. The course features 5 sets of tees for different skill levels. The greens are bermuda grass.

Father and son team of Robert Trent Jones, Sr. and Jr. created a golfing experience that is second to none at Celebration Golf Club. As a result, Celebration is a championship venue with the park-like feel of a modern, Florida course.

They were also successful in creating separate personalities between the nines. On the front, many holes border wide boulevards lined on the other side by pre- 1940 replicate homes from America's southern region and that of Bermuda, the Bahamas and the Caribbean. But with the back, the homes fade into the brush letting Mother Nature take center stage. Designed with shot-making strategy in mind, this championship caliber course demands accurate approach shots and consistent putting.

Great round

The staff is the best, extremely friendly and accommodating. Lots of water, but very playable. The greens were fast with challenging contours. Can't wait to play there again.

Poana nightmare!!!!

Definitely overpriced for the conditions that the course was in the day I played. Greens are really chopped up and tons of prickly green grass better known as poana popping up everywhere. Wasn’t a straight put to be had without obstacles in the way all day long. Very frustrating . A par was just like an amusement park ride, bumpy.

Apathetic and hostile starter

There were 2 singles players (myself and another gentleman). We were given 2 separate carts. The starter (ordered us to join carts. I informed the starter that I have the flu and would like to be in a separate cart.
The guy went ape crazy on me and asked me to go back to the pro shop and pay the green fees for another player to get a separate cart.

Course Renovation and

Celebration golf club is a wonderful Track but only in fair condition. It's my recommendation that Celebration transitions to a naturalist golf course with a Single line targeted irrigation system that can substantially shrink the irrigation footprint of the golf course. By transitioning to a naturalist style golf course, Celebration will save the City water while simultaneously allowing the maintenance staff to MANICURE a smaller portion of the golf course and bring Celebration closer to the highest level golf courses in Orlando

Nice course bad playing conditions

We waited at the tee box starting at the second hole. The wait kept getting longer at each hole. Finally at the senteenth there were a threesome, a foursome and a threesome at the tee bos when we arrived. We had enough and left the course at this point. It took us 5.5 hours to play sixteen holes. We will probably not be back.

9th Annual College Class Reunion

Annual SUNY Maritime Class of ‘69 Reunion. Course in great shape from tee to green however several greens had those pesky little round weeds and a few had burnt bare spots. Putting was running at an11 and wasn’t terrible despite the overall green conditions. Love the variety of holes., First year I didn’t see any gators.
