Bikes and Carts generally need to be returned by dusk, which varies at different times of the summer. Ask when you pick up to be certain.

You must be 18 yr old, have a valid drivers license and auto insurance.

If uncertain how long you would like to rent, please rent and pay by the hour. If you are new to the island and simply want to take a quick trip around the island to take a look and not make more than a short stop, you would probably want one hour and possibly 2 hours if you stop for lunch or want to visit the Glacial Grooves or sink your toes in the beach. Keep in mind that refunds are not available.

We generally do not have staff for this service. Island Ride Taxi is our local service 419-746-2000 ask them to bring you to the Caddy Shack Rental booth.

On slow weekdays, if you can reach someone at the booth, you can ask if there is any staff who might be available to pick you up at the airport as a favor and you may get lucky!

We generally do not offer reservations due to lack of staff. As a rule, we are the last to run out of carts on the island, so if the island is busy, head over to Caddy Shack Rentals ASAP. Also we try to start opening around 9:30 on weekends, which is the best time to get a cart on a busy weekend or event. We offer First Come First Served service.</p>

<p>If there is a line and no carts available, stay long enough to fill out paperwork, give the attendant a cell number we can call, stay within the Caddy Shack Square with your phone and be back at the booth within 2 min after we call or you will lose your place. If you leave the square, you may not have enough time to get back in time. Please be considerate of other people waiting. (All carts need to be returned by dusk. If carts are scheduled to be back but are not all back by dusk, the police will be notified of any missing carts so our employees can close up on time).

We suggest you rent a cart for 2 hours minimum to allow you the time to stop and enjoy the island. It can well take under an hour to go around the island if you are in a hurry. Generally, people are very happy with 2 hours. If you want to make a day of it, stop have lunch, go to the beach etc. feel free to rent a cart for 8 hours!

Yes, it takes less than 10 minutes to reach the beach by golf cart or bike. There is a parking lot at the beach.
