Walt Disney World’s Lake Buena Vista golf course will be closed from late spring to early fall for major refurbishments.
Lake Buena Vista Golf Course Closing
In addition to announcing the closure, Disney shared the changes that will be coming to the golf course:
Greens – Fully renovated with new contouring and elevations
Green-side bunker and chipping area – Playability updates
Irrigation systems – Upgraded around the greens to better maintain turf conditions in the surrounding chipping areas
Bunker drainage systems – New systems to reduce water retention and improve playing conditions after rain
Teeing grounds – Enhancements to several areas
The news comes soon after the Magnolia Course reopened after an extensive refurbishment, including reimagining several holes into a new “Grumpy Gauntlet.” Walt Disney World Golf was also recognized as the 2026 NGCOA Resort Course of the Year.
Disney’s other golf courses – Magnolia, Palm, and Oak Trail – will remain open during the Lake Buena Vista closure.
