Thinking About Living in Pronghorn Club at Juniper Preserve?
Get connected with a local real-estate specialist who understands Pronghorn Club at Juniper Preserve and the surrounding Bend / Central Oregon golf market.
Juniper Preserve is a gated, 640-acre high-desert resort and residential community roughly 10 miles east of Bend, set amid a stand of old-growth juniper trees. It was known for two decades as Pronghorn Resort before a 2022 rebrand; 'Pronghorn' is retained today specifically as the name of the resort's golf-club operation (the Pronghorn Club), which this research confirms operates two 18-hole championship courses -- a Jack Nicklaus Signature design (Oregon's only Nicklaus-designed course) and a Tom Fazio Championship design -- alongside the Juniper Spa, multiple restaurants, and a wellness program. The Estates portion of the community, offering expansive one-plus-acre custom homesites, sits behind a second, further-restricted gate within the larger resort for additional privacy.
This research independently confirmed, from the resort's own current materials, that Golf Membership at the Pronghorn Club is unlocked by the purchase of real estate at Juniper Preserve -- buyers choose between a full Golf Membership and a non-golf Sports Membership, and family benefits extend vertically (two generations up and two generations down on both sides of the buyer's family), a notably broad inheritability provision. A reported Premier Club Membership Deposit near $115,000 appears consistently across several active real-estate listings and a dedicated buyer's-guide blog, though this figure is not confirmed against an official club rate sheet -- the resort does not publish deposit or dues figures publicly, directing prospective buyers to request the full membership packet directly. A separate, distinct product -- The Residence Club at Pronghorn, an Auberge Resort -- offers 1/12th-fractional ownership of 2,000-2,800 sq ft, three- and four-bedroom residences (roughly four weeks/year), and carries its own membership terms; this research treats it as a related but separate offering from whole-ownership Estates real estate.
Home prices at Juniper Preserve currently range roughly from $899,000 to $3,900,000, with available homesites/lots ranging from about $17,000 (smaller/interior lots) up to over $750,000 for premium golf-course-frontage parcels of a half-acre to one acre.

- Confirm the exact relationship between Residence Club (fractional) membership and full Pronghorn Club membership for any specific transaction.
Notable

- Family membership benefits extend across two generations up and two generations down on both sides of the purchasing family -- an unusually broad inheritability provision.
- The Estates portion of the community sits behind a second, further-restricted gate beyond the resort's main gated entry.
