Reciprocal Play Policy

Schaffer’s Mill Club gladly hosts Members from other private clubs as part of our reciprocal play program. These guests are limited to non-impact times and are required to pay our Club’s highest guest fee.

In exchange, the clubs from which these reciprocal rounds originate have agreed to extend the same privileges to our Members. If you would like to experience a private club either in your hometown or while traveling, simply make the request to the Director of Golf, and he will work with the reciprocating club on arrangements.

A few important notes to keep in mind:

Their members pay a premium rate when they visit here; our Members should expect to do the same. Reciprocal privileges are intended for Members only. In some situations, accompanied guests may be allowed but please make our team aware of your group makeup before making the request.

Their members are provided access only to non-impact, off-peak times, and often we say no on our busier summer days; please expect that they have the same policies for their courses.

Requests for holidays or weekend mornings will not be made, as it is an inappropriate request for our Club to make.

Asking for a specific time is difficult; if you are flexible in the dates and times you can play, please let us know so we can work with the other club to see your request accommodated.

We currently do not have charge-back privileges with other clubs, so please be prepared to pay on site.

We ask that you please treat the clubs you visit with the utmost respect and thank the hosting professionals upon completion of play.

To ask about reciprocal play for your next trip, please contact Justin Saragueta at jsaragueta@schaffersmill.com at least one week in advance of your travel. Be sure to include the names of all players in the group and your available dates and times.

Private Golf Cars

Schaffer’s Mill Club Members are permitted to own and operate private golf carts on the golf course. This policy outlines information on purchasing and operating your own private golf cart for use on the Schaffer’s Mill golf course.

Private carts must conform to certain guidelines established by the Club (color, body style, tires, accessories, etc.).

All maintenance and upkeep of personal carts will be the sole responsibility of the owner.

Drivers must be 14 years of age or older to operate a private golf cart on the course (see HOA CC&Rs for operation requirements on our community roads).

Carts must be electric. No gas carts.

Approved Options

Weatherproof enclosure (beige, black or white fabric), sand bottle holder, club cleaner, ice chest, radio (radios must be kept at an acceptable, non-disruptive volume level at all times).

For a list of cart vendors please contact the Sports Shop Team.

There is an annual fee for using a private golf cart at Schaffer’s Mill. There will not be an additional fee for any guests riding in your personal cart, but they will be charged a guest green fee.

A Schaffer’s Mill Private Golf Cart Agreement and a copy of the proof of insurance must be submitted to use the cart on the golf course. A valid driver’s license is required to drive all carts on community roads and a violation of this rule will result in revoking the privilege of using the cart in Schaffer’s Mill.

If you have any further questions, please contact Justin Saragueta at jsaragueta@schaffersmill.com or by phone at 530.214.7378.
