Located in the heart of Orlando's attractions, Holiday Inn Club Vacations at Orange Lake Resort features four exceptional courses open to the public that will challenge and delight golfers of any skill level. Discover 54 diverse and picturesque golf holes, all within a deluxe, 1,450-acre resort you won't want to leave. The Legends at Orange Lake Resort is a challenging Arnold Palmer Signature Course, a masterpiece that allows golfers to feel as though they've traveled from the legendary links of Scotland to the classic pines of North Carolina. Plus, The Reserve at Orange Lake Resort re-opened in 2005 with several new water features and bunkers. It was all designed by architect Mike Dasher to be in perfect harmony with the surrounding wetlands. In addition, there are two 9-hole, par 3 executive golf courses-including the only course in Central Florida lighted for nighttime play-that can offer any golfer the opportunity to experience the resort's brand of golf. You can also learn the game and develop your skills with Rick McCord, recognized by Golf Magazine as one of the "Top 100 Teachers in America," at the McCord Golf Academy, named one of the "Top 25" golf schools in America. Choose a clinic or private instruction to discover your true golfing potential. But golf is only the beginning, as Holiday Inn Club Vacations at Orange Lake Resort has so much more to offer. The resort is comprised of four resort villages featuring a 12-acre waterpark with a lazy river pool and cabanas, seven swimming pools, nine restaurants, six retail shops, hot tubs, arcades, fitness centers, business centers and Internet cafes.

6/19/2009 - This place is the best except this is our 4th time and the reservation is always a challenge. They put us in the wrong buildings every year. I get them straightened out but it would be nice if they could get it straight once, besides that it is a fantastic resort. Posted by Rick (Sarasota, FL)
4/19/2009 - My recent stay at the resort was great. I was treated like a king by the staff will stay there again. Posted by Vance (Pittsburgh, PA)
2/25/2009 - Our group had a three bedroom villa which was very well designed for a group of people. Having three bathrooms was a real plus. Everything we needed was supplied in the apartment. However, it is a resort complex and services many families on vacation. I would recommend it for a family Orlando vacation.

2/8/2009 - I enjoyed my stay at Orange Lake Resort. I thought the Reserve course was actually the better course, it was in much better shape than the Legends and it made you play shots.
1/30/2009 - Nice accommodations; very comfortable. Played the Reserve which is average at best, good condition but some interesting holes. Also played the Legends course; very nice course in good condition with some very good holes. If you play just one course, play the Legends. If we went back, would play the Legends twice and skip the Reserve. Overall very nice trip.

12/19/2008 - Busy resort with friendly staff. The restaurant on the property was disappointing. Posted by Michael (Niagara Falls, Canada).
12/2/2008 - The accommodations were very nice. Liked the facility and amenities a lot.
11/7/2008 - It was beautiful. We are definitely planning to come back. The condo was delightful. The golf course was spectacular, we had so much fun. Posted by Elaine (Sebastian, FL).
4/24/2008 - I thought the hotel was fantastic and family friendly. Everyone was friendly and helpful throughout our stay. I recommend it highly to everyone. Posted by Anna (New Milford, CT).
4/17/2008 - Great villa, clean, comfortable and well stocked. The resort store near the Reserve course had everything you could need, and Publix was a three minute drive away. The pool areas and restaurants are too family oriented, great if you are traveling with kids, but there was no adult only or friendly areas. There is no great 19th hole to relax and re-live your game in. You play and head back to your villa or across the highway to one of the bars.
3/31/2008 - Resort was as described, good condition, no surprises. The villa in West Village was nicely decorated, complete, light & airy with lanai facing golf course. Restaurants were lacking, but resort is situated on busy highway with many choices for all meals. Posted by Susan (Melrose, FL).
3/16/2008 - The resort was fine. The new pool area will be nice when finished. Posted by Bob (Alliance, OH).
1/3/2008 - We stayed in one of the two bedroom condos on the Legends course. The unit was excellent. Great view, very clean, and well furnished. I highly recommend the accomodations.
Posted by Richard (Cranberry Township, PA).
12/4/2007 - Stayed here for five days. Played the Legends because I think the other was under construction. Also played both 9 hole courses. Loved the resort, the amenities, the people. I now have booked Orange Lake for January 30th-February 4, 2008. Liked the lake, the pools, but I wish there was a little more entertainment and spa services available. Very close to Disney and other attractions. Well worth the price. Posted by Joe Tuccolo (Haverhill, MA).
