Local knowledge
- The Intracoastal holes play into or across the prevailing breeze; club up on the waterway stretch.
- Replay rounds at the reduced rate can only be booked on the day, after the first round; a replay booked in advance pays full rate.
- Tee times need 72 hours' notice per foursome to cancel; package cancellations within 30 days of arrival forfeit in full (resort FAQ).
- The four-course 25% multi-round discount makes a Barefoot-only trip cheaper per round than mixing in one Barefoot course.
