Seasonal Sports-Themed Travel Savings

left

Football season kicks off in autumn, but throwing around the pigskin is not the only activity that heats up as leaves begin to fall.

Golf is another popular sport to partake in as the temperatures cool down. Unfortunately, for some, the high price of swinging clubs at a little dimpled ball is a real turn-off. That’s why many resorts drastically reduce rates in order to entice travelers to save on rounds of play plus hotel accommodations.

If you are looking to improve your swing in gorgeous natural settings without breaking the bank, consider golf-themed vacation packages. This fall, several resorts around the country are offering “stay and play” deals. These bargains feature a single set price that include a variety of amenities, such as multiple rounds of golf at courses located on or near the hotel’s property, golf carts, lunch and/or dinner, hotel accommodations, drink specials, pro shop discounts or coupons, rental car discounts, and free shuttle service to other local attractions. By bundling you can save a bunch of money. In some cases the deals translate into 60 percent off green fees, meals and hotel accommodations. What’s more, in addition to the substantial savings you score with these vacation packages, you also get the added bonus of enjoying Mother Nature at her best.

The Midwest features some of the most impressive seasonal golf vacation packages. For example, in Michigan, where stunning autumn views are found on nearly every course, “stay and play” deals are a dime a dozen. Places like Mackinaw City, Boyne Country, St. Ives, and Gaylord Golf Mecca offer phenomenal fall foliage, fabulous courses and amazing deals. For just $99 you can score one 18-hole round of golf with a cart, one-night stay at a neighboring resort, a dining credit at a local restaurant and free drink coupons.

If you prefer to customize a fall golf getaway, consider visiting GolfZoo.com. The website features more than 40 of the best golf destinations in North America and the Caribbean and allows you to create your own discount vacation package. You simply navigate through the site and select different lodging options and golf courses that suit your price range.
