It's crazy to see in a way, I had a friend that was a member there with his family when we were kids. I took my first swings on that driving range with him and his dad, pretty much where it all started for me.
Not overly surprising as the fully private model isn't really sustainable in this day and age. Not enough people have the money to be forking out $7-10K a year plus equity buy ins when they can join other semi private courses in the area for relative pennies on the dollar.

They should have made the move to a semiprivate model 10 years ago and worked harder to attract some new blood into the club. If someone is willing to step in, finish construction and turn this into a public course, I could see the future being bright. If not, I'm guessing the land is sold off for real estate purposes.
