Indoor golf in Chico: FAQ
How do I enter an unstaffed studio?
SwingLab says online bookings generate a unique access code that activates 15 minutes before your tee time. Save those instructions before arriving.
Is the hourly price the same for every group?
No. The fetched table lists $50 for one player, $60 for two, $70 for three and $80 for four to six. Confirm the final booking total.
Can left- and right-handed golfers play together?
The operator specifically describes overhead ProTee VX tracking with no setup changes needed between left- and right-handed players.
Is there real putting space?
SwingLab advertises a 35-foot putting green in addition to its simulator experience. Ask how access fits your reservation.
Should a beginner expect a staff-led orientation?
Not automatically: the studio is described as private and unstaffed. Arrange a tour or lesson if you need hands-on help.
Are party packages the same as normal bay rentals?
No. The site separately advertises parties for larger groups, with their own prices and confirmation process. Use a party inquiry for a large event.
