Thinking About Living in Crystal Coast Country Club?

Get connected with a local real-estate specialist who understands Crystal Coast Country Club and the surrounding Crystal Coast golf market.

Connect With a Local Real Estate Specialist

Crystal Coast Country Club is the only golf course on the 21-mile island of Bogue Banks and, on the evidence found this session, the market's clearest case of a real membership barrier to entry -- a documented waitlist across roughly 700-750 member families, distinct from ordinary public golf.

Golf & Course

Built in 1971 and designed by Maurice Brackett, the par-72, 6,004-yard course hugs the Bogue Sound with five holes overlooking the sound.

Membership & Access

Does buying a home here include club membership?

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

Semi-private, with a tiered membership structure (Full Resident, Junior Adult under 35, Sports -- non-golf privileges only, and Half Rounder for long-tenured senior members) and voting rights that vary by category. Multiple sources describe an active waitlist to join. Membership is not connected to homeownership anywhere specific -- Pine Knoll Shores is a town, not a single development.
