Connect With a Local Real Estate Specialist

Lake Barrington Shores Golf Club sits adjacent to one of the North Shore's larger gated condominium developments: the 510-acre, 1,317-unit Lake Barrington Shores community in the Village of Lake Barrington. The community's own website confirms residents get 'first opportunity' for membership in the golf club -- a genuine, sourced priority-access arrangement, though not the same as automatic or mandatory bundled membership. The club itself is semi-private, also serving non-resident members and offering dining to the public, so a Lake Barrington Shores condo purchase creates a real advantage in the membership process rather than a guarantee of access.

Golf & Course

The club operates an 18-hole course; specific architect, yardage, and routing detail were not found in sources reviewed this session.

Membership & Access

Does buying a home here include club membership?

No — homeownership does not automatically include membership. See details below.

Lake Barrington Shores residents get first opportunity for club membership per the community's own official site -- a genuine priority in the application process, not an automatic inclusion. The club also serves non-resident members and offers dining to non-members, confirming it is not an exclusively resident-only facility.
