Reunion Resort - Watson Course

Course in spectacular shape from tee to green. Pace of play was very slow only due to a group of 45 players in front of us. Otherwise, a 5-star rating!

I took my dad to the Watson course and we had a great time. The conditions were great. Greens rolled true. Very challenge with all those bunkers and no area is truly flat. The staff was kind as well.

I can’t wait to come back.

The Watson course and the Reunion Staff was amazing. The course was in great shape. Greens were fast but fair.

The course was in great shape. The staff was very friendly. I will be back.

On a Saturday: we had 3 singles paired up. The group in front of us was a playing lesson, and the group in front of them were members. How do I know? Because they had their own very fancy golf cart. I get it: the members do pay probably a lot to have access to those courses. However, any sort of pace of play is thrown out the window. It’s ridiculous. There is ZERO allowing people to play through slower groups and ZERO marshaling of pace of play. The entitlement is out of control. Like the other reviews here about these courses, my experience has been nothing better. The members do whatever they want, and they let them.

The good parts: the course is in amazing shape and the greens are always pure. But play at your own risk and allow for at least a 4:30-5:00hr round because of these entitled pricks.

This is third time I played this club, I enjoyed the Nicholas and Palmer course , I guest it’s summer time in Florida , Watson course’s condition is not a grade A condition course for the price paid.

It’s almost 8-10 years since I played last, the staff there always not friendly, from the bag drop, Proshop to starter, my friends and I never feel welcome there.

My husband and I was looking into join Reunion over 10 years ago, we like the fact they have 3 courses as we are a member of 3 courses in PA, we contacted the club , we get a very poor experiences with the staff. It’s the shame , the staff there still have unfriendly rudely attitude.

We locals wait for public tee times to become available each year at Reunion so I jumped on the opportunity to play the Watson course. Not worth it. Not only do they not disclose that the greens were recently pin hole punched and are still healing (sloooow) but it is obvious that the maintenance quality of the course in general has gone downhill. Not nearly as manicured and top tier as it has been in the past. Do not recommend.

183 bunkers on this course and 0 water. Fairways hard and packed, greens that don't hold and bunkers and sand pits everywhere. For the price it is not worth it. I am not afraid of sand but can I get a little fairway with a nice fluff or something close ? Very disappointed for $231.

Greens were slightly bigger than Nicklaus course but 0 were flat(ish). and then you rolled off into a trap. Not for the beginner or high handicapper.

Super below average. Clubhouse is an absolute confusing mess to locate after having to park on the far side of the hotel with no cart shuttle/pickup. Starter seemed totally out of sorts, not friendly/welcoming. Rental clubs were in trash condition (outdated Apex irons, no head covers thus dinged up) . Greens were decent (would roll about 8 on stimp) but poor course conditions given the high price. We waited on nearly every hole. Overall, not a good value for a declining course.

Worst thing of the day…..saw the cart person ONCE all day.

Rest of the day was great. Course conditions were really good. Greens were perfect. Saw a few previous reviews about how slow and uncut the greens were on Watson. Definitely not the issue now. Not lightning fast but def quick. Great shape. Other than a few weed areas in the fairways the course was excellent. IMO, the best of the 3 courses here by FAR. Great layout. Great look off of each tee box. Range was good. Personnel was super friendly. At the off season rates right now, this course is almost a bargain around Central Florida. Highly recommended.

Nice course greens was too long needed cutting and rolled fairways very good. The fact the greens was very slow and too long spoilt the game.

Scratch golfer. Shot a frustrating 75 from the tips. A decent challenge on a fun layout. But maaaan, $90+ for greens that were cut too high, not rolled, and thus super grainy and ultimately too slow for the caliber of the resort was frustrating. I play better greens on many $25 public courses. This place is not worth the money they are asking. A birthday disappointment for sure. I bet things are top notch in the winter for the members. But the public and resort guests are being somewhat ripped off in the summer. Green fees should be $65 absolute max unless the greens are fast, true and perfect. No real golfer cares about anything else.
