As I reflect on 2022, the cottages at Champions Retreat have provided the backdrop to many great memories. From the Member-Guest, family occasions, buddy trips and weddings…we are proud to have played a role in each of them. Additionally, many of these events used our services including massages, charcuterie trays, Chef experiences, BMW rentals and a list of many more. We thank you for including us in these events and hope that you will continue to engage our Concierge team to make your next stay a great one.

With the continued growth in our Membership, we have experienced elevated demand during all times of the year. Where January and February are normally a quiet time, we have noticed that the cottages are still getting used. With that, be sure to book your cottages in advance to ensure that you secure the cottage and timing needed to best satisfy your trip to the Club.

We look forward to a great 2023 and hope that you will continue to include Champions Retreat in your activity away from home this year. Please don’t hesitate to contact Erica and Jillian in Concierge to best plan your next visit.

Food & Beverage

What an amazing year 2022 turned out to be. While summer typically slows due to hot weather and course maintenance, this past summer that time was active with Member sponsored private dinners and committed golfers. Summer activity grew into a busy fall season, starting with the Member-Guest and continuing through October and November. Even the December activity at the Club was one of the busiest in our Club’s history. Member participation in all elements of the Club has shown the health and pride that we all have for the property, and we are thankful for your support.

Thursday nights have continued to offer the popular prime rib night, which happens every other Thursday in the Grille house. Fire & Ice has also been a huge hit with our Members and their guests every Friday night. Enjoy a cigar and specialty cocktail by the fire while li stening to live music in a beautiful setting.

2023 Masters has enticed many of our Members that enjoy the week to include Champions Retreat in their festivities. The Steakhouse in the Barn will be another success, and I suggest making reservations now to ensure your spot. “28," our casual dining including pizza and pretzels, will have an even larger presence with the addition of a tent in the four-squares. This setting will be perfect for a casual night after the tournament with friends. Reservations are not necessary in this space, and we expect it to be a lively event each night.

Chef Ross is working on new menus for winter and spring with seasonal produce and creative touch. Both lunch and dinner menus are innovative, beautiful and delicious. Look for announcements in your weekly emails and join us to try his latest creations. Also, in the next few months we will have a number of events you should not miss - Winemaker Dinner, Valentine’s Day Dinner (It is on a Tuesday night this year), and Mother’s Day Brunch, to mention a few with more in the works.

In the Barn, Tamara and her team work hard to create the perfect event for whatever you might have in mind. Weddings, family milestones, tournaments and corporate retreats seem to be the most popular, but in-cottage Chef experiences are also available. Don’t hesitate to reach out to her and allow us to create your one-of-a-kind event around the property.

A new and promising year has begun, and I am looking forward to serving all of our Members and their guests this year. As always, feel free to contact me with any requests to make your next visit to the Club your best one.
