Oak Trails Course
Disney's Lake Buena Vista Golf Course


About this course
Oak Trails, one of the quartet of courses found at Disney's Lake Buena Vista Resort, delivers a unique and accessible experience, diverging from the championship pedigree found elsewhere on property. Carved through mature Floridian woodlands, this 9-hole, par-36 layout presents a more relaxed test of golf. Originally designed to provide a family-friendly option, Oak Trails favors playability over punishing length. The routing winds through natural wetlands and integrates several water hazards, placing a premium on strategic shot placement and the ability to navigate tree-lined corridors. While not intended for professional competition, it provides a satisfying round for novices and seasoned players alike. Nestled within the vibrant atmosphere of the Disney resort, Oak Trails provides an accessible alternative for guests seeking a more casual golfing experience. After a round, players often linger at the club's casual dining area, reminiscing about their shots while planning their next Disney adventure, whether that be a trip to the park or tee time at one of the championship courses.

Getting there
The journey to Disney's Lake Buena Vista Golf Course begins at Orlando International Airport (MCO), roughly 25 minutes south by car through the flat, subtropical landscape of central Florida. Private aviation clients may prefer Orlando Executive Airport (ORL) or the nearby Kissimmee Gateway Airport (ISM), each offering expedited ground handling and closer proximity to the property. The drive itself traces a gentle arc through the region's characteristic mix of palm-lined boulevards and resort corridors, with the final miles revealing the distinctive architecture and manicured grounds of the Walt Disney World complex - a seamless transition from highway to the carefully orchestrated world of Disney hospitality, where the golf course awaits as one of the resort's most understated yet refined amenities.
