QJ906N The Eighteen at Bear's Den

Some vacation homes offer a view of the course. The Eighteen offers the finish. Set within Bear's Den; the private, Nicklaus-inspired enclave at Reunion Resort. This eight-bedroom retreat can sleep up to 18 and looks directly out over the closing hole of the Jack Nicklaus Signature Course. From the pool patio you watch the day's last groups play in: the approach, the putt, the handshake at the green. Mornings bring mist across the fairway and a stillness you can hear. Evenings bring gold light over the pool and a sky that turns the entire patio into a room. It is, quite simply, one of the best seats at Reunion. That patio is the heart of the home. A private pool and hot tub anchor the space, framed by lounge seating and shaded dining for the whole group, while the fully equipped summer kitchen turns dinner into an event. Grill while the kids swim, pour something cold as the sun drops behind the tree line, and let the meal stretch as long as the conversation does. The spa stays warm long after the pool empties, which is where most evenings seem to end. Watch the sun come up over the eighteenth with a cup of coffee in hand and you will understand why guests rebook this home before they check out.

Inside, The Eighteen strikes a regal look without being formal, modern without being cold. Soaring ceilings and generous proportions give the main living areas a sense of occasion, while a clean contemporary palette keeps everything bright and current. The gourmet kitchen is built for real cooking and real crowds, with expansive counter space, premium stainless steel appliances, and seating that keeps guests in the conversation rather than out of the way. The dining room seats the full party at one table. Elsewhere, the arcade room gives the group a second place to gather. Three multi-game arcade machines and a game console keep the tournament running long past bedtime, whether it is a rainy afternoon, a between-parks reset, or the stretch of evening when the adults would like the patio to themselves.

Each of the eight bedrooms is paired with its own full bathroom, the detail that separates a large house from a home that genuinely works for a large group. Multiple couples, multi-generational families, golf foursomes, and corporate retreats all get the same thing: privacy, space, and no morning queue. Bedrooms are appointed with premium linens and quiet, considered finishes, arranged so early risers and late sleepers never have to negotiate.

Guests enjoy full access to Reunion Resort's amenities. Three championship courses with stunning views designed by Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, and Tom Watson. Beyond the fairways: a multi-acre water park with lazy river and waterslide, pools spread across the property, tennis and pickleball courts, a fitness center, and rooftop dining with views that stretch toward the nightly fireworks. Guests staying in Bear's Den also have the enclave's own private clubhouse and lounge close at hand.

Reunion sits just minutes from Walt Disney World, with Universal Orlando, SeaWorld, and Orlando International Airport all within a comfortable drive.

Eight bedrooms. Eight baths. A summer kitchen, a private pool and hot tub, an arcade room built for rematches, and an uninterrupted view of the most photographed finish at Reunion. Whether you are gathering the family, closing out a company retreat, or planning the golf trip people talk about for years, The Eighteen offers an address equal to the occasion.
