The Dunes Club

Frequently Asked Questions

How difficult is it to get a tee time at The Dunes Club, and what's the best way to secure one?

This isn't a walk-up course, so plan ahead. You'll typically need to be a guest of a member or have a reciprocal arrangement through your own club. We recommend contacting the pro shop well in advance to understand their current guest policies and availability.

What makes The Dunes Club's layout truly unique compared to other coastal courses?

The natural, windswept dunes here aren't just scenery; they're integral to every shot. You'll find yourself navigating dramatic elevation changes and blind shots that demand local knowledge, especially on holes like the infamous 'Gambler's Run' - it's a true test of nerve and strategy.

When is the ideal time of year to play The Dunes Club, considering the coastal conditions?

We always suggest late spring or early fall for the best experience. The summer can bring intense heat and humidity, while winter often means strong, biting winds that make an already challenging course even tougher. Aim for those shoulder seasons for more comfortable play.

Is walking mandatory at The Dunes Club, and do you recommend taking a caddie?

Yes, The Dunes Club is a walking-only course, which truly enhances the experience of its natural terrain. We strongly recommend taking a caddie; their local knowledge is invaluable for navigating the subtle breaks on the greens and understanding the best lines off the tee, especially on your first visit.

What's the post-round experience like at The Dunes Club, and should we plan to stay for a meal?

Absolutely, don't rush off after your round. The clubhouse offers fantastic views and a relaxed, classic atmosphere perfect for recounting your shots. We highly recommend staying for lunch or dinner; their seafood is always fresh and a perfect cap to a day on the links.
