ChampionsGate Golf Club - National

About
The National course is a classic American-style layout that rolls through 200 acres of southern woodlands and wetlands. Unique bunkering, tree-lined fairways and intriguing green designs define shot making challenges. In particular, golfers are apt to remember the National for its testing par 3 holes and for the double green shared by holes 4 & 16.

Best greens I've ever seen. Fast and true. The layout is typical florida target golf. Short par 4s require layup off the tee. But most holes you can let it rip off the tee. 150 bucks is pricey but ok i guess for this time of year
Top Notch Place
Championsgate has always been good, but on 12/23/2024 the course was in near perfect shape and they were offering a Florida resident rate which is a bargain. Golf this time of year in Florida for residents can be tough and expensive but Championsgate does it right and I am sure I am not the only resident who appreciates that. Staff is incredibly friendly and amenities are top notch. Can’t wait to come back.
So Disappointed
Have played at both courses on property many times. Booked a tee time to play the International without issue. Arrived at the front desk and was asked if we were informed that the course was Cart Path Only....the 3 worst words in golf. We said that we had not been informed. The guy at the desk said yeah, we have overseeded the International Course and it's CPO. How does a course of this caliber spring this information on you upon arrival? They have phone numbers from the Golf Now reservation and I'm pretty sure they didn't wake up this morning and suddenly decide...Hey let's oversee today and just tell everyone when they get here. What pathetic management on a pricey course. They offered to switch us to the National Course which is FAR inferior, in both conditions and layout, Get a clue guys..Treat your customers like they matter. Bush League to say the least. Shame on you.
Great course
Loved the course. Beautiful conditions. Staff was great. Only issue was pace of play. Some foursomes just do not understand they need to play faster. I understand staff may not want to upset a paying group of golfers, but pace of play is likely the biggest issue golfers have. Sometimes people need to be nudged.. Highly recommend this course.
