There is also parking directly in front of the Clubhouse, on the road below the front entrance.

Dress Code

Like most private facilities, the Hunt has a dress code. It reflects club traditions but also considers current trends in golf wear and the practices of other private clubs. members and guests must wear attire that conforms to the dress code.

Individuals whose clothing does not meet Hunt Club standards will be provided an opportunity to purchase appropriate attire from the Golf Shop. If the opportunity is declined, they will be asked to leave the premises.

The Bag Drop is in the South parking lot by the Golf Shop. For special events, there may be a specially designated Bag Drop area, which will be well marked.

Dress Code

The Ottawa Hunt & Golf Club is a traditional golf, curling, and social club. Accordingly, the Club’s dress code reflects a level of decorum that members feel is in keeping with Club traditions.

Members are responsible for ensuring that they and their guests conform to all dress code regulations. Staff has been instructed to inform any member of a dress code violation. The member has a duty to remedy the situation or be subject to disciplinary action.

Parents and Sponsors are responsible for ensuring that children’s attire adheres to the dress code. The Ottawa Hunt & Golf Club recognizes that children’s clothing trends often vary from adults; therefore, some leniency will be given provided their attire is in good taste.
