Great course and value

The course was in good shape. The fairways and tee boxes were in goo shape. The greens were almost over the work done on the greens which took place a week of so before we played. Overall the pace of play was good as we finished in just under 4 hours,

Proper golf

Reunion is one of those golf courses that do things properly. It starts with a meet and greet, taking you clubs to your allotted cart at the starters hut. Helpful friendly starter, great range with free balls. Courses are in fabulous condition and well manicured. They can be as challenging as you wish with good tee box distribution. Just a great day out and worth the money. Just one disappointment- the less formal clubhouse restaurant closes at 5pm. Would have been nice to have eaten our evening meal there after golf.

Average condition for a quality course

We always enjoy a visit to any of the Reunion courses but were disappointed this time with the quality of the course - lots of dry patches on fairways and generally poor condition although greens were true. Also very slow and nothing done to move along the slow groups

Average Course, unprofessional staff

the proshop staff was very rude. The unprofessional staff put you in the bad mood to start the round. I wanted to cancel the round if it wasn't a prepaid round. But I did canceled the next day round at the Championsgate just because I don't want to be near the reunion area.

The course wasn't worth paying over $100.

Average course with unprofessional staff

Purchased the early pre-paid teetime and didn’t bother to take my wallet. I always have enough cash in my golfbag and apple pay so I really don’t need my wallet for golf. During the check in, the club house require $5 resort fee. I never heard that before but no big deal. The problem was the resort went cashless and was only accepting credit card. No apple pay and no cash. I paid $100 for the round, but they were not let me play. I struggled for 10 minutes and a nice guy behind me offered to pay the fee for me, and I paid him back with cash. I am not sure whether I should take this as unfriendly staff or a bunch of idiots running the shop.

Anyway the course was about average. Not worth $100. More like $60 course for sure.

Fantastic Design, just not in good shape!

I played the Watson Course today. The layout is tremendous. I think the price was too much for the shape the golf course is in. It should cost around $60.00. The greens were okay; but not what you would think. Some greens had brown spots all over them. The rough looked bad on most holes. It just has been neglected. It almost appears they just do not have enough man power to take care of everything. The driving range was really bad. It had not been mowed in a while. Also, not much grass to hit range balls. It is an eye soar. The course is okay to play; but I was expecting more for the price I paid.
