No guest pass is needed for champ golf, but it's cheaper if you have one.

Championship Golf

The "RG" (Resident Guest) is the rate for a guest with a guest pass.
The "NR" is the rate for a non resident without a guest pass

Executive Golf

You need a guest pass to play the Exec courses BUT the golf is not free for those with a guest pass. Also be forewarned, if you put in a request with a guest, all requests without guests are accommodated before the requests with guests are considered.

I had a guest last week and we played an executive course. We walked, and had our own push carts. He said they charged him $11. We played Pelican. He thought it was a marvelous deal.

I think if we'd ridden a cart he would have to pay a "trail fee", and I think that's $4, but I'm not sure. I don't pay them because I have a Priority Golf Membership, and trail fees are waived.

That’s the fee now, $15 riding, $11 walking.

Once upon a time, when I would come down to visit, my hosts and DW and I would play a couple rounds of executive golf. I can't remember exactly what it cost then, but we had a blast and I thought it was a wonderful bargain.
When I heard about the "free executive golf" I had a vision of what those courses would look like. Then I saw Pelican and Heron....WOW...did my perception change.
I'm a 6 1/2 month seasonal resident now, and I consider the executive courses a treasure. They get beat up during the high season, but I still enjoy them.

Yes. When reserving tee times using the online system check the box for guest then enter your villages ID. The clubhouse/starter will check their guest id upon check in.

that's correct

A little off topic but do you have experience renting clubs for a guest? I couldn't find that info on line. I am in the historic area.

mike1946 05-02-2021 08:04 AM

I keep spare sets for guests - also historic section.

You can rent them at the nearest championship course and take them to the executive course you are playing. I keep a couple spare sets for guests. Found a great deal for a used set of irons at Brownwood golf store for $29.

You can purchase a half decent spare set of clubs with bag, at Marion Mkt. at a very reasonable price, or from the the Classified Section on TOTV.
A whole lot cheaper in the long run.

Guest passes are good for golf, with the conditions described. However, guest with passes can NOT make a t-time! A resident must make the reservation and I believe A resident must be with the guest.

Go to golfthevillages.com

In the “what’s new” box, find and click on “2021 Golf Rates”

This will give you the current green’s fees and if you scroll down a little it will give you the club rental fees for both 9 holes and 18
