Some Helpful Information for Our Golfers

This page is designed to help answer some key questions that golfers may have before they visit the course --- While we've tried to include as much helpful information as possible, you may have a question that's not answered... If that's the case, please give us a call at 781-665-6656 and our Clubhouse Team will do their best to provide some answers for you!

  • Golfers can book tee-times online, in person or by calling us at 781-665-6656
  • Tee-times are highly recommended, especially between May and October
  • Groups exceeding 8 players will be considered a golf outing and may require a deposit or pre-payment
Our No-Show Policy
Understanding Sagamore's 'No-Show' Policy
Unfortunately, the frequency of 'No-Shows' has been growing for many years now, and Mount Hood Golf Course has reached a point where we can no longer sustain the 'lost revenue impact' that No-Shows have had on our business over the years. Much like the airlines, restaurants, hotels and physicians, public golf courses rely heavily upon 'reservations', and when a reservation is not honored (without any notice), it results in lost revenue that we have no way of recouping.
 
Please understand that all MHGC reservations will now require a valid credit card --- The credit card is required only to cover No-Show Fees, should that be necessary. During the online booking process, the individual making the reservation will be prompted to provide their credit card information, which will be safely and securely stored to your customer account so that subsequent reservations can be made quickly and easily. We ask that you please take time to read the following policy before booking your tee time, to help you better understand the process:
  • Why do we require a credit card? Your credit card is only required to cover any No-Show Fees should they apply to your reservation
  • No-Show Fees: Weekdays = $8 per no-show player  /  Weekends & Holidays = $13 per no-show player
  • Will my credit card be charged for the tee-times I'm reserving? NO!!! Greenfees will NOT be charged to your credit card, and each golfer in your group will be able to pay for their own greenfees once they check-in at the course
  • Can I make changes or cancellations to my tee-time? Customers can easily change or cancel their tee time reservations by logging in to their MHGC tee-time account OR by calling the course during normal business hours (if you don't already have a MHGC tee-time account, you will be prompted to create an account the first time you book an online time with us)
  • What happens on days when the weather is poor? We'd still appreciate a phone call if the weather is too poor to play, but we will NOT charge any No-Show Fees on days when the weather is obviously inclement
  • Cancellation Deadline: To avoid being charged any No-Show Fees, you must remember to confirm any changes or cancellations no later than 24-hours before your tee-time
  • Questions? If you have any questions at all about our tee-time policies, we encourage you to call us any time during normal business hours at 781-665-6656
Our Golf Season
  • Mount Hood Golf Course is typically open from Early April until mid-December each year, weather permitting of course
  • If there is no snow on the ground, we make every effort to remain open for golf as long as turf conditions and frost levels allow for it

Frost Delays

Frost Delays should be anticipated in the early spring and late fall months, so we ask our golfers to be prepared on colder mornings. Frost delays can range from 15 minutes up to two hours, depending upon our opening time and the weather, but it's important to note that we'll never suspend play beyond 9 AM!
