GREAT golf course

A wonderful experience on the Tom Watson track. Fair, interesting and wonderful routing. Nothing gimmicky - just need to be on the right spot on the greens. Everything about my round was memorable.

Reunion

Strange policies.. cashless so tough to tip bag people. They take your drivers license and scan it at gate to verify you..invasive in world of identity theft.. should just match up id with name on tee sheet..why do you need to scan my drivers license into your stydten????pro shop pro was unfriendly and rude.

Annoying……people using cart paths as bike paths while trying to play golf. Pro shop aware of it but could care less about policing it…Bag drop girl was a sweetheart though.

Nice layout..above average conditions but not great..good practice facilities…overall the resort and course seemed uncaring..understaffed and complacent..no one going out of way to please customer. Everyone seemed burnt out with their job. No longer the prestigious resort it once was.

Watson Course

First time playing the course. Tee boxes, fairways and greens were in great shape. Fun layout. Professional and friendly staff. Can't wait to go back and try the Palmer and Nicklaus courses.

One of a kind round!

Being a Central Florida local, this course has been on my radar for awhile now. Played with a group of friends yesterday and we were all blown away! The course is in excellent condition overall and it certainly was a challenging and unique layout.

We never once felt rushed during our round and the staff were all top notch. Everyone we dealt with made us feel like resort guests and were a pleasure to deal with.

Already looking into coming back and playing the other courses here, what a gem!

Excellent course. Very challenging

The Watson course is in excellent condition tee to green. It is a test with its length and tricky greens. Would definitely play here again.
