Dean,
I just want to thank you for the outstanding Scottish Vacation Guide. It gave me the confidence to book our foursome’s trip without going to a tour agent and has saved me considerable money so far. Also, I have found Sheena at the Dunvegan Hotel to be very customer service focused and already know our staying there is a good decision. Lee McGee, Sparks, MD

Dean,
Wow! the Guide is absolutely great. What detail! I will definitely be using it for all future trips. I'll refer any students making the trip. So many of the things that are your favorites are also mine. My three trips are paltry compared to yours but I have been to many of the same spots. This guide will become the bible of visiting Scotland for years to come. Great job.

Dean, Your Guide reads great--A 10/10 Guide on planning a Scottish Golf trip – There is no excuse for your readers not making at least one spiritual journey to the Home of Golf--Scotland. If they do that they will be hooked – just like you 'n' Suzanne. It has all the info anyone would need. If you had done a similar one on say South Carolina, I would be very confident that I could plan my own trip whereas just now all I could name you is Myrtle or Kiawah and even then I have no idea how far is between them, where to stay etc.

Dean,
It's a terrific guide to golfing in Scotland! This guide is so well written, a novice golf enthusiast can figure it out. Plus, it includes enough local sight-seeing info to entice the spouses who may not want to spend their entire trip golfing . The pictures are excellent and add to the anticipation of a trip to play these wonderful courses. My hat is off to you.

Your guide looks good, positive and informative - we understand why folk pay a tour operator - but Americans should certainly consider the alternative of independent travel, as do an increasing number of our European and Scandinavian guests.
Kind regards, Roger, Golf View Hotel, Prestwick, Scotland

Dean,
You've got a great guide! My congratulations. The additional material is excellent & will enable the reader to see/do things beside just golf. Thus it will have wider appeal. I just know there's a lot of great material here, and golfers/travelers like me are going to want to read it if they only know about it. People will love this Guide.. Whether they're planning to go to Scotland next summer like me, or just thinking about it, they'll treasure this kind of inside knowledge. Anybody going overseas wants to know how to find the "real deals" and avoid the other...reminded me of the 70's when I went to London for the first time and bought a book "London on $10 a Day" and devoured it.

I think your Guide is excellent - comprehensive and potentially of great value. This was obviously a labour of love and it shows. Congratulations.
