What to Independently Verify
Exact initiation fee and whether club membership is required with home purchase are not publicly disclosed; the club is reported to be at full member capacity (~100 members) with a multi-year waitlist for new membership as of 2026 (per Country Club Magazine/golf365 coverage). Verify current waitlist status and terms directly with the club before assuming a home purchase includes or guarantees membership.
