Golf Package & Industry Testimonials
A quick note to thank you once again for a wonderful golf weekend. Besides that minor glitch at Furry, everything went off like clock work. We were all in agreement that this was one of our better trips. We are back to Kananaskis next year and B.C. in 2011 when I look forward to working with you again.Your loyal customer,
Rick Albus -  p.s. Having the Bears show up at the Chateau and Squamish was a nice touch.

Ross, please accept my apologies for responding so late after our trip, but June is a very busy month for me.
I just want to thank you for having our trip so well organized. The accommodations were great, and all of us were very impressed with the courses. Kelowna has another winner in the Black Mountain course ( None of us got close to your 79, but we will blame that on the alcohol factor). We are most definatly doing this again next year, and will be calling on you to get us set up again. On behalf of the group Thank you. Chris K.

Just to let you know we had a fantastic time . In fact we couldn't have enjoyed it anymore , unbelievable golf , excellent accommodations , and most of all the weather was perfect . Any of our future golf trips Ross will be handled through you and you company . Black Mountain was a true joy to play although the greens were a little slow , but that was understandable being they are brand new , great course. Once again Ross , thank you for everything you did to make it a very special kelowna golf trip .
Sincerely Wayne 

Just wanted to send you an email to say how much I appreciate everything you did to organize our trip. Absolutely everything was perfect! You made me look really good as the organizer. Everyone loved the fact that all they had to do was show up and everything was looked after. I highly recommend the Hampton hotel. The staff was fabulous, room was exceptional, and the pool / hot tub / and even the waterslide made for a great way to soothe some aching muscles at the end of the day. Even the breakfast was quite good and the topping on the cake was fresh baked cookies when we checked in at the desk. SWEET. I don’t know how you managed to pull off the incredible weather we got but great job there too! Thanks again and you can look forward to booking our group again next year. Paul Cowl

Alan Hudak from Ontario, along with his 7 friends that have done an annual trip for 30 plus years, they visited the Okanagan in April 2009, and stayed at the Playa Del Sol Resort. They had a blast. Read Alan's review on Trip Advisor.

We just flew home from Kelowna today and I want to thank you for setting up a great trip for us. The Manteo Resort was an awesome place to stay and they treated us really well.The weather was challenging...we even got a few minutes of snow on Tuesday at Kelowna Springs...but we still enjoyed the courses. Another year we may choose to come the last week of April to catch a bit more spring!
 
All of the personel at the courses were great to us as well. BCgolfguide.com seems to be held in high regard by the people out there. The new course, The Club at Tower Ranch, is definitely a winner...we enjoyed our round there and will add it to our list of must play courses. Thanks again for setting up our trip.  You did a great job!

The Dunes at Kamloops and Ross Marrington- BC Golf Guide have had a great business relationship since 2005.  During this time I have seen BC Golf Guide grow as a company and has eventually turned in to one of our most popular booking avenues for our out of town guests.  Having said that, this relationship has transpired due to a great personal relationship with the owner, Ross Marrington.  Ross gets it.  He attends our BCPGA trade shows and has built a personal relationship with the majority of the golf professionals in the interior of BC and beyond.  His attention to detail on group size changes and communication with our staff is second to none, there are rarely any mistakes made on the entire booking/cancellation process.  This relationship building has been imperative to business relations with myself and Ross and we’ve seen an increase in destination rounds due to continuing popularity of his company. Another attribute to BC Golf Guide is, Ross is the only Tour Operator owner that makes a conscious effort to bring his own personal group of 24-36 players to our club and others in the interior each year.  This doesn’t happen with other agencies and is a unique trait that Ross makes a conscious effort to bring extra revenue to the golf clubs he deals with, and we all appreciate it.
Sincerely,
Mike Porco, Director of Golf
  
Just wanted to drop you a note expressing our thanks for your help in setting up a very enjoyable trip to Kamloops. We were very impressed with all the courses ( found Tobiano pretty difficult and Talking Rock a pleasent surpise ) and all the people we met there. The Thompson Inn was in a front lobby reno, but it wasn't an issue really, people were good and its very central, we enjoyed being right downtown on Victoria St as oppossed to up the hill at say the Accent Inn, which is something you might want to hi-lite for people ( either way ).  I think Kamloops has got it right in their customer/service/attitude department, found everyone from hotel, golf course and restaurant staff to be excellent, may want to pass that onto to the appropriate authorities. Big thumbs up for the 3.2.1. Bistro, awesome restaurant !
Thanks again - Len

 
Just wanted to give you a report on our weekend in Kamloops. The Hampton in Kamloops was wonderful, the rooms were perfect, beds luxurious, the breakfast, was definitely deluxe for a continental.  Our first day at Sun Rivers was good, the coarse is very challenging, and weather turned out good, we were worried at first, as the wind was howling on the first tee. The Dunes is a flatter coarse, lots of wide open, not so many places to lose a ball.  We had great service after at the Dunes, the coarse marshall was terrific, the waiter was also very friendly.  All in all, we had a wonderful time, and also had very prompt taxi service too.  Thanx so much, we will definitely check you out next time we want to book a golf weekend.

Just a belated note to thank you for the wonderful job on booking our golf trip. Everyone had a great time. The hotel was very good to us as far as the meeting room went and we were able to use it both nights. The golf courses were great especially the Dunes which every one agreed they liked better. I am sure you will hear next year from the couples planning that trip. Again thanks and if you ever need to refer a satisfied customer we will all be glad to contribute.

Morning Ross,

May I thank you for the excellent organisation and support you provided to us. The Borgata Lodge was quite superb and the courses challenging. All in all - a great holiday. We did try to call you directly to say 'thanks' but could not get through. Ah well, back to work.
Yours

Hi Ross,

Well here we are back in the UK after a super vacation in Canada. We would all like to pass on our thanks for making our holiday just perfect and organizing Predator Ridge at such short notice, it really rounded the holiday of great and saved us a big headache in trying to make our own arrangements. They guys enjoyed the 27 holes at Predator Ridge as much and if not more than Bear Mountain which is saying something. We hope when in Canada next you will still be around and active in BC Golf Guide to organize our golf. Thanks again for making Canada 2007 so memorable.
Kind regards
Loraine, Barry, Sandra and Ray - England

Thanks for the excellent service you and your company provide....it's outstanding!!!! When I did have any questions or anything else to do with the trip, your response was immediate and very professional.
Talk to you next year

Hi Ross
I wanted to thank you for helping set up our golf trip last month.  The accommodations at the Manteo were very good and the golf was fantastic.  The round at Tower Ranch was the highlight.  We look forward to returning to
Kelowna or Kamloops (or Whistler?) next year. Booking through you was very easy and effective and we will go this route again.  I will also recommend you to anyone else who is thinking golf.
Thank you Rob Sim
