The last membership I had didn't include the cart plan - I decided to purchase my own golf cart thinking that they'd waive the cart fee since I was using my own cart - but I learned to never assume anything.


No one that I've heard of allows you to use your own cart on their course without incurring a trail fee. That's standard practice in the business.

It's for locals who like to keep their clubs ready to go in the garage. I'd do it if I lived in a golf neighborhood.

I still think it's a rip off to charge me a trail fee or whatever you want to call it. Next they'll charging me a fee if I bring my pull cart- I can't stand how this industry nickle and dimes you as a golfer

update course/club will be going private August 1st. Diez claims he's doing it for several things: 1. bring the community closer together - yes by alienating the residents that choose not to pay his greedy arse monies to not only golf but just to drink a sinking beer at his bar. So after August 1st only members allowed in the club house - he's doing us a favor I keep telling myself 2. By helping to increase our properties values - but couldn't give any hard facts. yea right.

Like a buddy of mine likes to say - "fukem and feed them fish heads"

I despise greedy people that act like they are doing you a favor and its for your benefit.

At a time where golf courses are struggling, I would think they would bury the cart fee in the overall monthly membership fee. Especially Pelican Point.

Better to hide it than to piss people off.

And I can remember going to visit my parents and the course would be group after group teeing off. Now, you might see a group once every ten minutes. If that. They are definitely struggling.
