About this course
The Watson Course is one of three golf courses at Reunion Resort near Kissimmee, Florida, a resort community south of Orlando. Its native-grass framing and sandy waste areas give it a windswept look distinct from the resort's other two courses.
Designed by Tom Watson, the layout is a traditional parkland routing with more than 120 bunkers and no water hazards on the course itself, a deliberate departure from typical Florida course design. Five sets of tees allow it to play from roughly 5,400 to over 7,100 yards.
Access to the Watson Course is limited to resort guests, members and their guests rather than the general public, consistent with the semi-private structure of Reunion's golf operation.
