The Daily Sun has put reminders that walking is not allowed on golf courses, but they put these reminders in the golf section...most of these people probably aren't golfers. We've even had bicycles and motorcycles drive by our lanai. Any suggestions on how to remedy this problem.
We realize this is a few years old message, however, when we did the search this morning to check whether or not "just average evening strollers" are allowed to walk on the golf courses, meaning the golf cart path...or whatever, it brought us to this thread..........we totally can understand the folks not wanting to have strange dogs "going" near their homes which back up to the golf courses , nor golfers having to deal with it on the courses, but our question is:

Since we will be renting a home on a golf course, are we allowed to walk in back of the home? Is it really true that no one can walk on the golf course....not even the edge of it? We are non golfers. No dogs.
Thanks for any advice out there.
