About ChampionsGate

ChampionsGate is one of Central Florida's most prestigious master-planned golf resort communities, spanning 1,500 acres in Osceola County just minutes from Walt Disney World Resort. Established in 1998 as a Community Development District, ChampionsGate has grown into a thriving residential community of over 27,000 residents who enjoy a resort-caliber lifestyle every day.

The community is anchored by 36 holes of championship golf designed by legendary golfer Greg Norman — the International Course and the National Course — along with the world-renowned David Leadbetter Golf Academy. The Omni Orlando Resort at ChampionsGate, an AAA Four Diamond property spanning 800 acres, serves as the crown jewel of the community with over 1,000 rooms, nine restaurants, a full-service spa, and extensive recreational amenities.

ChampionsGate's strategic location along Interstate 4 and its proximity to Disney World, Universal Studios, and Orlando's major employment centers make it an ideal choice for both full-time residents and investors seeking short-term rental income. The community offers a diverse range of housing options, from luxury condominiums and townhomes to sprawling single-family estates, attracting families, retirees, and investors from around the world.
