How it Works
Golf Simulators are reserved by the hour, and the rate reflects the price of the bay rental time, regardless of the number of golfers. Your session can be as short as 1 hour or extended for as long as you like, even for an entire day. On average, it takes about one hour for one person to play 18 holes on a virtual simulator. The time required may vary depending on the number of players and their pace, but as a general guideline, 2 players might need two hours, 3 players around three hours, and a foursome could take approximately three hours or more. If you are booking online, please reserve each hour individually.
