Frequently Asked Questions

How can a non-member play Member Course?

Getting on Member Course as a non-member usually requires an invitation from a current member - it's a true private club experience. We recommend reaching out to your network; sometimes reciprocal play is available through your own club, but don't count on it as a primary option.

What's the biggest challenge or signature hole at Member Course?

The course truly tests your short game, especially around the greens with their subtle breaks and firm surfaces. You'll find the par-3 14th, 'The Quarry,' particularly memorable with its dramatic drop shot over an old rock quarry to a heavily contoured green.

When is the best time of year to play Member Course for optimal conditions?

We always aim for late spring or early fall - think May or October - when the weather is crisp and the course conditions are at their peak. The summer can get quite humid, and while playable, it just doesn't have that same magical feel.

What should I expect to pay for a round at Member Course, and is it worth the investment?

Expect a premium green fee, typically in the $300-400 range if you're playing as a guest, often including a caddie. We absolutely think it's worth the splurge for the immaculate conditioning and the classic, challenging layout you won't find just anywhere.

Beyond the golf, what makes the Member Course experience unique?

The historic clubhouse is a real highlight, steeped in tradition and offering fantastic views of the 18th green from its veranda. Make sure to enjoy a post-round drink and a meal there - the prime rib is legendary among members.
