Your Step-by-Step Guide to Booking an Outing
Planning an outing can feel overwhelming, but our team at Huron Shores has streamlined the process into five simple steps.
Step 1: Define Your Goals & Date
First, determine the “why” behind your event. Is it for charity, competition, or pure leisure?
- Pro Tip: For the best availability in the 2026 season, we recommend booking at least 3-6 months in advance, especially for weekend dates.
Step 2: Choose Your Format
Most outings choose a Scramble format, which keeps play moving and allows golfers of all skill levels to contribute. We also offer:
- Shotgun Starts: Everyone starts at the same time on different holes-ideal for larger groups.
- Tee Time Starts: Best for smaller, more casual groups.
Step 3: Select Your Food & Beverage Package
An outing isn’t complete without the 19th hole. The Huron Shores Grill offers everything from:
- Boxed Lunches: Ready on the carts for a quick turn.
- Outdoor Patio BBQ: Burgers and brats for a casual vibe.
- Plated Banquets: Including our famous Friday Night Fish Fry style perch and walleye.
Step 4: Customize Your Contests
Add excitement to the day with course contests. We can set up markers for:
- Closest to the Pin
- Longest Drive (Men’s & Women’s)
- Longest Putt
- Hole-in-One Challenges
Step 5: Finalize & Play
Two weeks before your event, we’ll finalize your player count and pairings. On the day of the event, our staff handles the bag drop, cart staging, and personalized scorecards so you can focus on your guests.
