Hi all i am curious if many residents play golf regularly? Also am wondering if residents get some kind of discount as opposed to the tourist rates?

They offer memberships I know for locals. I'm not on that side of operations but Thursdays and Saturdays are very local heavy golf days.

Nice to know!

I honestly do not know about local discounts but I will ask. I don't pay or else I wouldn't play.

And they give you free golf? Once a week?

I'm sure I could play more, but honestly I have a little toddler and after working 50++ hours a week the last thing on my mind is golf. I've played 4x in 11 months.

As said on this thread (and as indicated on the link), Mahogany Run is on STT where the OP is moving to. If you're moving to STX I believe there are three golf courses there.

On STX, there are three golf courses. The Buccaneer and Carambola Golf Course both offer discounts for residents for golf at certain times of the season. I don't know the details but they can certainly save you some $$.

Straight off Carambola website shown below. As a side, the wife doesn't play and Carambola charges $20 for a rider. The Buccaneer is $55 for 18 w/cart resident (no charge for rider). Haven't played the 9 hole Reef course yet but people say it's not in too good shape.
