The best time really depends on your group's needs. For those who don't mind playing golf in cooler conditions, then November to March is an ideal time to head to the fairways.

April to October is peak golf season when the weather is warmer. Of course, with the higher temperatures come fewer bargains and higher prices, so if you’re looking for deals, off-season could work better for you. Ultimately, it’s up to you - but you’d be hard-pressed to find a bad time to visit.
