GUEST BOOKINGS

If you are booking online more than 4 days in advance for one or more guest, the system will not accept their actual name as it defaults them to a ‘non-member’ who is restricted to book only 4 days out. However, you can pick Guest 1, Guest 2, and/or Guest 3 from the Member’s List (depending on your group size) to allow you to book your guests within your window. You must be playing with these guests.

Club events and registration must be done through the phone.

GENERAL

Please note you are responsible for any ‘no shows’… an automatic charge of $20 will be billed to your account for any unused spots. (Minimum of 24 hours notice is needed to cancel without penalty).

Bookings must be made for 2 or more players. Singles must call the Pro Shop to get fit in.

CANCELLATIONS & "NO-SHOWS"

“A Member who commits to a tee time must provide a minimum of 24 hours notice to cancel. Should a Member provide less than 24 hours, or “no-show”, and the Pro Shop is unable to fill the slot, a penalty fee of $20 per missed tee time shall be applied to the Member’s account. The Member is also responsible for any abandoned guest tee times reserved through the Member”.

Please understand that unfilled tee times are detrimental to the club.
