Connect With a Local Real Estate Specialist

Country Club Estates is the golf-front residential section of the roughly 2,000-acre master-planned Dakota Dunes community in Union County, South Dakota, developed from the community's 1988 founding specifically as custom-built homesites organized around Dakota Dunes Country Club's Arnold Palmer-designed course, along with forest, pond, and Missouri River views. It sits apart from Dakota Dunes' two other named residential neighborhoods (The Prairie and The Meadows), both of which are moderately priced general neighborhoods centered on community parks rather than the golf course.

Golf Access

Does buying a home here include club membership?

Buying a home here does not automatically guarantee golf membership unless stated below — confirm access directly with each club.

Homes in Country Club Estates do not automatically include Dakota Dunes Country Club membership; the club's Dunes Equity, Young Executive, and Junior Dunes membership categories, plus National and Regional out-of-town categories, indicate membership is purchased independently rather than bundled with a home purchase, though this research found no source that states the relationship between deed ownership and membership explicitly.
