| Golfer | Booking window | Booking fee |
|---|---|---|
| City resident | 0–7 days ahead | No booking fee |
| City resident — advance | 8–90 days ahead | $32 per player, per tee time |
| Nonresident | 0–90 days ahead | $50 per player, per tee time |
Booking fees are separate from green fees
The $32 and $50 charges are booking fees, not green fees. Booking fees are nonrefundable and do not apply toward the green fee; green fees are paid separately on the day of play.
A valid City Resident ID Card is required for resident advance-reservation treatment and must be shown at check-in for the resident rate.
Try the same-day virtual waitlist on property
The same-day, on-property virtual waitlist may fill cancellations or no-shows. It is a standby option, not a guaranteed tee time.
If you use Play Golf SD first, treat a recent result as a lead and complete the reservation in the official online portal. Play Golf SD does not hold the time.
Reservation and check-in rules
The player of record must be present and play. Tee times are non-transferable and cannot be rescheduled, and golfers should check in at least 30 minutes before the tee time.
Current verified information supports the nonrefundable booking fee, but not an exact cancellation deadline, a separate no-show charge, or a green-fee prepayment requirement. This guide does not infer those policies.
