Food & Beverages
As they are at all courses, the sale and consumption of food and beverages at Manitou Passage are regulated. Guests should leave coolers and all food and beverages at home or in their vehicles. Food and beverages are available in the clubhouse and from the beverage cart. There are coolers on the carts.
Alcoholic Beverages
Alcoholic beverages are sold in the clubhouse and on the beverage cart. Such beverages will not be sold to guests who appear to be intoxicated. If the behavior of a guest who appears to be intoxicated is offensive, he or she will be asked to leave without refund.
Carts
Due to steep and long paths between some holes, golf carts are required for all golfers. No more than two people and two sets of clubs are allowed per cart. Any non-golfer will be required to pay a $25 rider fee.
The carts are GPS controlled, will sometimes slow to a speed deemed safe, and will prevent driving in traps or native grasses, and to or in parking lots.
Cart drivers must have a valid driver’s license. Guests assume responsibility for carts while in their possession.
Clubs
Each player is required to have his or her own set of clubs. To accommodate guests without clubs, we rent full sets of high-quality clubs.
Pace of Play
An 18-hole round on our course should be completed in about four and one-quarter hours. We ask that you monitor your speed and play against this standard. If you fall behind, your cart will notify a ranger who may, if you are way off pace, ask you to pick up the pace or move.

- Red and yellow stakes mark hazards
