The long weekend format demands efficiency: maximum golf quality in minimum time. This itinerary concentrates three rounds across two properties that sit 15 minutes apart along the I-4 corridor south of Orlando, starting with Greg Norman's contrasting designs at ChampionsGate and finishing with Tom Watson's strategic test at Reunion. The geographic proximity eliminates meaningful transit time, leaving more of the weekend for golf and one carefully placed off-course experience.
Fly into MCO and drive 30 minutes south on I-4 to the Omni Orlando Resort at ChampionsGate. Check in and take an afternoon tee time on the National Course.
Morning round on the International Course, the day's main event. Norman's links-style layout carries the highest course rating in Florida at 76.
Complimentary morning at Reunion Resort's pool or amenity areas before checking out. Drive 30 minutes to MCO.
Two accommodation bases: Omni ChampionsGate for Night 1, Reunion Resort hotel for Night 2. The 15-minute drive between the properties is negligible. Groups seeking to simplify can base entirely at Reunion and drive to ChampionsGate for the first two rounds, adding 15 minutes each way. A rental car is essential. The I-4 corridor between the two resorts is straightforward, though Friday afternoon traffic can add time if arriving from MCO.
