[DCBaker]

Here's the announcement:

Walt Disney World® Golf always strives to provide you with world-class golf facilities to maximize the value of your experience with us, along with that extra touch of Disney Magic.

On the heels of the recent significant updates at Disney's Magnolia Golf Course, this year notable upgrades are planned at Disney's Lake Buena Vista Golf Course to enhance and improve course playability and conditioning for your future enjoyment.

The current plans, which are anticipated to run from late Spring into the early Fall time frame, are expected to include:

• The greens will be fully renovated with newly reimagined contouring and elevations
• Green-side bunker and chipping area updates to improve playability
• Upgraded irrigation systems around the greens to improve and better maintain their conditions and that of the surrounding chipping areas
• New drainage systems for many bunkers to reduce water retention and improve playing conditions after rains
• Enhancements to several teeing grounds

As the classic country-club style golf course, which winds through and around three of the Walt Disney World® Resort hotel locations, Disney's Lake Buena Vista Golf Course provides amazing views of resort villas, palmettos, forests and sparkling lakes. It has always been unique in its character, providing something of a more intimate golf experience.

We are committed to your enjoyment of our golf facilities and look forward to the completion of these enhancements later this year!

We look forward to welcoming you to "The Happiest Place on Turf!"

As a non golfer, is this seriously a phrase they use?

Glad to see this course get some love. The other two have had their updates the past few years. Looking forward to seeing the changes.

It's on the pamphlet. Not kidding.

Bring back the Golf Resort. 70’s wood paneling and all.

I hope that they don't cut down a lot of trees. I played Magnolia last year and the new holes were rather "blah". I was disappointed in the overall condition of that course. I much preferred Palm. Might try to get LBV in before it closes, if possible. I saw "summer" but no official date.
