I bought it this weekend. The only restriction I saw was that Saturday bookings have only 72 hours advance booking, any other day of the week...no restrictions.
The passes can be used till October.
What I didn't see though was info on the club rentals...all it said was Taylor made rentals

I love Le Diable. Maybe not technically the best course at Tremblant but definitely the best experience around.
The practice facilities are simply amazing, and the view from the holes is awesome. Especially love playing Diable when a race is on at the race track.

This year the Marshes implemented a machine to despense the balls. Green fee players receive a couple of tokens before a round which gives two buckets (approximately 75 balls) Members were given a "fob" which you hold against the machine and allows you 200 balls per day.
This implementation of the machine has allowed more of a control over the practice facility. Over the past couple of years there has been a noticeable increase of people arriving at the Club and heading out to use the range without a Membership.
It was "very hard" to police this........as the club employees were unsure who were Range Members, Full Club Members, Green Fee Players or individuals who were getting away with using the range for free. And believe me this abuse was getting worse !!!
It took the members a few weeks to get used to the new system, but have noticed a "tremendous" improvement in the condition of the range grass this year as there is much less "wear and tear". I for one can do without the "pyramid" of balls if the grass is in superior shape.
This was a very "smart move" by the Marshes !!"So many moving parts. Your whole body's moving, and this ball is not moving. It's standing still, laughing at you." [B] Tiger Woods[/B]

Luge Champ
Matt said that Lance and Sam were on here bragging about the luge and wanted me to remind them both who was waiting for them at the botton
Also, I saw some very small people riding by themselves, I think as long as you can pull the handle to stop at the top they let you go.

I paid 100$ before the golf season starts directly on the Tremblant web site and I get 2 rounds of golf at either Le Diable or Le Géant, to be played before July 15th. Only restriction is 48 hours booking for Saturdays.
I played Le Diable last Tuesday (26th) and let me tell you, it is the best course I have played on. The weather was perfect (a plus, considering they were predicting thunderstorm up untill the morning of the game), the fairway was very nice, the rough was thick and punishing and the greens were top notch.
The GPS was nice, sometime slow (showing carts in our fairway while no one was there, distance was showing 120 yards on our cart and 150 on our partners cart parked behind us) but for the most part, it was working pretty well. Free breakfast since I played before 11, then a trip to the Driving Range where the Pro looked at my swing and decided to move on to someone else (would of needed to delay my tee off time if he started giving me pointers).
We had a marshal on our ass all game though because of the 2 golfers we were paired with. Never seen someone play that slow. The guy would set up to hit straight in the fairway, take a practice swing and then go back behind his ball, set up again and then aim 40 yards to the left of his original stance, only to hit it dead on in the fairway. Effective, but very slow and frustrating for me and my buddy who could play a golf course in 3 hours when we have a cart.
I am officially traumatized about sand. I am not going to the beach this year, spent enough time at Le Diable in their waste bunkers / bunkers.
All in all, 50$ to play Le Diable in primetime was a steal. I recommend everyone who doesn't mind the drive to have a look at their website before the golf season start for their T-Pack golf pass.
Le Géant next Friday!

Camelot has the pyramids 2! I love it, it looks so proffessional and you hitting callaway balls which is nice as well. It is a private course however but its nice to practice hitting legit greens on a range. They also have a fairway so you can practice hitting your woods. I would have to say that Camelot EASILY has the nicest practice facility!
Im planning on going up to Mont Tramblant this year....is costco the best place for deals???
