  1. REGISTRATION

    Before commencing play, all members and guests must sign-in at the Golf Shop, whether it be for 9 or 18 holes of play.

  2. STARTING TIMES

    Starting times will be in effect seven (7) days a week.

    Members may reserve preferred tee times up to thirty (30) days in advance of play. We encourage members to take advantage of the thirty (30) day advance tee time reservation benefit. (*Please note that if Bristol Harbour Management has an opportunity to book an event inside the thirty day window you may be asked to change your reservation and pick another date.) In the best interest of all, members who choose to cancel a tee time reservation should do so as far in advance as possible so as to free that time for another member or guest to use. If a member tee reservation is not used and not cancelled in advance, the member who made the reservation will be held liable for the fees associated with said reservation subject to the following schedule.

    A. First Time - A warning will be issued to the member
    B. Second Time - Cart fees for the group will be charged to the member's house account.
    C. Third Time and Beyond - The member will be charged for full guest fees for each member of the group.


  3. GOLF CARTS

    Golf carts are not mandatory for members.

    At no time will there be more than two people riding on a golf cart. This rule will be strictly enforced by the Golf Shop, Golf Course personnel, and Hospitality Staff.

    Junior golfers (age 17 and under) are not permitted to reserve, use, or operate golf cars, even when accompanied by an adult, unless they possess a driver's permit or have permission from the Golf Shop Staff.

    A violation of these rules shall result in automatic suspension of cart privileges for two (2) weeks with more severe penalties for succeeding violations. It is the responsibility of every member to report all violations to the Golf Shop.

There will be no exceptions.

  5. GOLF RANGE

    The golf range will be open in the spring as weather permits and close as the weather dictates in the fall. The hours of operation begin when the golf shop opens.

    A junior is any family member who is eighteen (18) years of age or younger, or twenty-two (22) years of age or younger and a full-time student. Only those juniors who have successfully completed the Bristol Harbour junior Golf Program and/or have shown knowledge of the rules/etiquette and a basic skill level will be allowed to play without adult supervision. All juniors must have the permission of the golf staff before they will be allowed on the course, unless they are accompanied by an adult of at least twenty-two (22) years of age. The Management reserves the right to restrict junior tee times during weekends, holidays, and peak traffic times.

    Due to liability concerns, no children under age ten (10) will be allowed on the golf course unless express permission is granted by the golf shop. In such instances, a waiver releasing South Bristol Resorts and Bristol Harbour Golf Club from liability must be signed by the parent or guardian accompanying the minor.

  9. SPECIAL EVENTS
