What’s the Cost of Joining Onion Creek Golf Club?

General Discussion
1

I’m considering becoming a member of Onion Creek Golf Club and I’m trying to gather some information about the membership costs.

I’ve done a bit of research, but I’m still a bit unclear about the following:

Membership Tiers

Are there different tiers of membership? I’d like to understand what each level offers and the costs associated with them. Are there options for family memberships versus individual ones?

Additional Fees

I’m also curious if there are any additional fees besides the membership cost, such as monthly dues, initiation fees, or maintenance fees that I should factor into my budget.

Benefits and Perks

What benefits come with the membership? Do members get discounts on lessons, merchandise, or dining? It would help to know what extra perks might be worth the investment.

Promotions

Are there any current promotions or discounts for new members? I’ve read that some clubs offer reduced rates for the first year or waived initiation fees.

Member Experiences

Lastly, if anyone here is already a member, I’d love to hear your experiences. Is it worth the cost, and do you feel satisfied with the amenities and services provided?

Thanks in advance for any insights you might have!

I’ve been looking into Onion Creek Golf Club myself. They offer three main tiers: Social, Full Golf, and Corporate. The initiation fees vary a lot!

That’s right! I’ve heard the Full Golf membership is around $5,000 in initiation fees, plus $1,200 each year. Definitely a commitment for avid golfers.

4

The Social membership is more affordable, around $1,500 for initiation and $700 annually. Great for those who want access to amenities without the golf commitment.

5

How does the Corporate membership work? I’m curious if it’s worth it for a group.

6

The Corporate membership is around $10,000 to join and includes multiple players under one account. It’s ideal if you have a group of friends or colleagues.

Sounds steep! What if you’re just an occasional golfer? Are there options?

8

That’s where the Social membership shines! It’s a lower cost and allows access to the clubhouse and social events without heavy golfing requirements.

I appreciate that! But has anyone mentioned if there are any hidden fees, like maintenance or special assessments?

Good question, Jerome! There can be additional costs for events and tournaments, but it’s generally straightforward.

11

Does anyone have experience with the dining minimums? I’ve heard there might be food spending commitments tied to membership.

12

Yes, as a member, you typically need to spend around $500 annually on food and drink. It’s manageable if you enjoy dining out!

13

I’m all about those dining experiences! What happens if you don’t meet the minimum, though?

14

From what I understand, any shortfall might be charged to your account, so keep that in mind if you join!

Ugh, that sounds like a potential trap! Worth thinking about before joining.

16

Just a friendly reminder! Club costs often reflect the facilities and customer service. It’s great to weigh all the options carefully!

17

Besides the main membership fees, are there other perks that come with being a member? Like discounts or access to other clubs?

18

Yes, they have reciprocal arrangements with several other clubs, plus discounts on events that are pretty decent!

I’m looking into membership as well! From what I’ve heard, Onion Creek offers access to their beautiful courses and practice areas, which are definitely a plus for anyone serious about golf.

Absolutely! They also have a fantastic dining area and host exclusive events that make it feel like a community. That’s something you don’t find in every club!
