About this course
The Cypress Course at Grand Cypress Golf is a premier parkland layout that re-emerged in 2021 as part of the Evermore Orlando Resort redevelopment. Designed by Jack Nicklaus, the course was constructed on the land formerly occupied by the North, South, and East nine-hole courses at the original Grand Cypress Golf Club. The redesign modernized the layout into a singular 18-hole championship experience, featuring wide Celebration Bermuda fairways and TifEagle Bermuda greens. Shimmering water hazards are a central theme, coming into play on 13 of the 18 holes, including a redesigned version of the signature island-green par-3 on the 3rd hole. The course is characterized by bright white bunkers and dramatic sightlines framed by towering cypress and pine trees. It is open to resort guests and daily fee golfers, maintaining its reputation as one of Orlando's most meticulously conditioned and aesthetically striking golf destinations.

Grand Cypress Golf Club (New)
Orlando, FL · 0.0 mi away
The Links Course at Grand Cypress Golf Club, formerly known as the New Course, is an 18-hole, par-72 layout at the Evermore Resort near Walt Disney World in Orlando. It opened in 1988 as a Jack Nicklaus design built as a tribute to the Old Course at St Andrews, with double greens, pot bunkers, a recreated Swilcan Bridge, and a burn. The layout favors firm ground and wide fairways over the elevated mounding typical of Florida resort courses. From the back tees it plays 6,773 yards with a course rating of 71.9 and a slope of 121.
Evermore Resort Golf Club
Orlando, FL · 0.2 mi away
Evermore Resort Golf Club in Orlando, Florida, operates two Jack Nicklaus-designed, 18-hole championship golf courses on the former Grand Cypress property. The Links Course originally opened in 1988 and pays tribute to the Old Course at St Andrews, with double greens, stone bridges and more than 150 pot bunkers across open meadows. The Cypress Course opened in 2021 on the site of Grand Cypress's former North, South and East nines, with water in play on 13 holes and an island-green par 3. Both courses are part of the Evermore Resort in Orlando, adjacent to Walt Disney World.
Disney's Lake Buena Vista Golf Course
Lake Buena Vista, FL · 0.3 mi away
Disney's Lake Buena Vista Golf Course is an 18-hole resort course at Walt Disney World in Lake Buena Vista, Florida. Designed by Joe Lee, with additional work by Rocky Roquemore, the course opened in 1972, one year after the Magnolia and Palm courses. It plays to a par of 72 and measures roughly 6,700 yards from the back tees, winding through dense pine forests, palmettos and the villas of Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort. Narrow fairways, bermuda rough and small, well-bunkered greens make it a tighter test than its length suggests, highlighted by an island green on the par-3 16th. Joe Lee returned in 1994 to rebuild the greens across the course. The course is open to resort guests and the public, with practice facilities and instruction available for golfers of all levels.
