Thinking About Living in Ruby Hill Golf Club?
Get connected with a local real-estate specialist who understands Ruby Hill Golf Club and the surrounding East Bay golf market.
Ruby Hill Golf Club is one of this market's strongest residential-integration cases: a Jack Nicklaus-designed course sitting at the physical and identity center of the gated, roughly 850-home Ruby Hill community in the Livermore Valley wine country near Pleasanton. Even so, club membership remains a distinct, separately priced purchase from the community's own HOA dues -- an important proximity-vs-access distinction for buyers to understand before assuming golf comes with the address.
Golf & Course
An 18-hole championship course designed by Jack Nicklaus, featuring strategic contours, mature oak trees, water features, and wide vistas across roughly 225 acres.
Membership & Access
Does buying a home here include club membership?
Club membership (Individual and Family tiers, Arcis Golf-operated) is purchased separately from HOA dues; homeownership in Ruby Hill does not automatically include golf access.
