Policies and FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is the policy for putting purchases on account?
Members can enjoy the privilege of putting purchases “On Account” at Trillium Wood. In order to do this, members agree to store a valid credit card on file that will be charged the full balance at the end of each month. This includes Pro Shop items, guest fees, tournament registration fees, etc. Food & Beverage items may NOT be charged to your account. If you would like more information, please email golf@trilliumwood.com.
Why are you limiting rounds? Why not keep the same membership model?
The overall strategy was to provide a more equitable membership structure to reflect the amount each player plays. In the past players paid the same amount for a 7-day membership regardless of whether they played 100 rounds or 50 rounds. The new model provides every member to choose the club membership that best suits their needs. Rounds are limited in each club membership category to increase Trillium’s yield ($ per round) on membership rounds to a level that can be more sustainable in the long term.
