What airports should I plan to fly in and out of?

We recommend flying in and out of Redmond Municipal Airport (RDM), which is less than 23 miles / 30 minutes from the resort. If flying private, there are a couple FBO facilities at Bend Municipal Airport (KBDN), which is 8 miles / 13 minutes from the resort.

Please contact the Concierge Team if we can be of assistance with arranging alternative airport transportation or assist with booking flights.

What will the weather be like during our stay?

Bend is located in the high desert, offering highs in the low-70’s and lows in the mid to high-50’s in the evenings. A typical day in the early fall will provide plenty of sunshine with sunrise just after 7:00am and sunset closer to 6:45pm. The need for rain gear is rare!

Will I be able to get cash and use credit cards?

You will find that most major credit cards and debit cards are universally accepted with cash easily obtainable via ATMs.

How many meals are included?

A full breakfast will be served every morning. We have planned a Welcome to Oregon Cocktail Reception upon arrival and a Farewell to Bend Dinner on your last evening.

The Concierge Team can assist with making any reservations and recommendations for the group for additional meals not included in the Experience.

What is the cancellation policy for this Experience?

All deposits and final payments are non-refundable. However, we highly recommend purchasing a travel insurance program through Travel Guard and we will be happy to provide a quote or you can browse below

What if I want to play additional and optional golf?

There are a few noteworthy courses in Bend and around Central Oregon. If any Guest would like to play additional golf, even at the spur of the moment, your GG Concierge can arrange the round/s for you. Optional golf can be arranged well in advance of your departure as well. Please consult the Concierge Team for golf options.

Can I play 36 holes a day if I want to?

Absolutely! Please let a member of our Concierge Team know and we will be happy to set up additional tee times for you.

Can I arrange to ship my golf clubs to Bend?

Yes! We partner with Ship Sticks, the leaders in golf club shipping, and can arrange for your golf clubs to be shipped directly to Pronghorn Golf Club to await your arrival and home following your Experience. This is a great option to help ease the hassle of traveling and better yet, to prevent the terrible misfortune of missing or the delayed arrival of your golf clubs due to the airlines. 

Please contact the Garmany Golf Concierge Team at Experience@garmanygolf.com if we can be of any assistance to you.
