The regulations have been updated to allow use of golf carts for those who need an accommodation. Please see below for the exact rules, but it is our understanding that if you want to take a golf cart please bring a letter to “certify in writing” that you have “a disability that requires use of a cart.”
At noon today Southers Marsh opened for business.
But we’re ready! Here are the highlights of our state mandated restrictions.
- No golf carts. As of today there are no exceptions to this rule.
- The clubhouse is closed, including the bathrooms
- Payment should be made online through our tee time reservation system or over the phone before you come to the course. When you book online you will be asked to prepay for your round. If you see no availability, make sure you are searching for “W/O Cart.” Tee times with carts are not currently available.
- The range and practice green are closed
- All golfers must maintain proper social distancing of at least 6 feet at all times
- Tee times are 15 minutes apart – golfers must stay in their car until 15 minutes before their tee time and must return to their car immediately following play. No tailgating
- We’re not pairing groups up. If you have a twosome, you’re playing as a twosome. You may have to be patient.
- Flagsticks must remain in the hole. The hole liners are raised. If you hit the cup, it’s in!
- No rental clubs
Please follow the rules so we can all get through this.
Thank you!
So far this is all we have to go on. On Tuesday I swore off the Reopening Rumor Mill and on Wednesday I was back in 100%.
Apparently we aren’t going to be given any warning as to when we can reopen. Also, we have not been given guidance on how to handle bathrooms, carts, flagsticks, tee time intervals, etc.
We will not be taking tee times until we have the specific rules so we make sure our intervals and group sizes are compliant. Once we are given the all clear, we hope to be open within a couple hours, but for now please plan on making a tee time before you show up to the course.
We appreciate your patience. Hopefully we have better information soon.
