Turtle Creek Club

One of Florida's most impressive 18-hole 72-par golf courses is Turtle Creek Country Club, designed by reputable links architect Joe Lee in 1969 on an approximately 150-acre real estate footprint connected to the navigable Loxahatchee River (on its eastern border). It was an ideal landscape to carve out rolling fairways, in-land peninsulas, and winding lakes through naturally flowing tropical vegetation.
As is frequently the case, Turtle Creek Country Club homes for sale emerged in the 1970s, maximizing the aqua-centric and garden vistas from over 204 single-family homes and 33 condos & patio homes. The developers positioned these old Florida Mediterranean–Tuscan architecture residences in the luxury category, some with backyard docks for boats on the Loxahatchee River and it's Intracoastal connection. Accommodations stretched from two bedrooms & two bathrooms to four bedrooms & three bathrooms - 1,400 square feet - 3,119 square feet under air living space - in three subdivisions (Turtle Creek 1, Turtle Creek East, and Turtle Creek).

Turtle Creek Country Club Membership Fees
When buying homes in a private golf course community, the crucial consideration is whether or not they require mandatory resident membership. Why is this pertinent? Because joining a club involves paying:
- An initiation fee of around $100,000 (non-refundable)
- Annual dues from $18,000 to $60,000 to play on a private golf course + access to elaborate amenities (such as tennis, pickleball, restaurants, resort-style pools, fitness centers, valet, etc.)
- A moderate discount on the above for a social membership (i.e., all amenities minus golf)
Notably, the described cost structure is separate from any HOA fees related to residence benefits on the campus. So, buyers of Turtle Creek real estate can transact:
- Free of membership concerns and the significant added costs involved.
- Knowing that the Turtle Creek Country Club management:
- Welcomes homeowners to join as a separate arrangement if interested.
- Delivers viable luxury options that complement residing in a unique fairway or by-the-water residences on the country club campus.
- Offers amenities minutes away from any unit in the enclave for residents who can afford the additional expenses.
A focal point is the 1970s vintage, making the developer's handover look dated in 2025 (when writing this community description). That's true, except that many current owners have remodeled extensively, installing some or all of the following upgrades:
- Replaced roofs.
- New air conditioning.
- High-impact windows and sliders.
- The latest granite, stone, marble, wood, and metal materials.
- Premium stainless steel appliances and custom cabinetry in chef's kitchens.
- Smart-home electronics.
- Remote working offices with high-speed wifi.
- Spa bathrooms.
- Seamless shower doors.
- Floating vanities.
- Walk-in closets and pantries.
- Backyard pools, summer kitchens, and gazebos.
Turtle Creek HOA
Another thing to be aware of regarding this gated golf community:
- HOA fees for condos and single family homes cover contributions to ground maintenance and gated security (shared with the club).
- However, the monthly fees for riverfront condo owners additionally provide building insurance, maintenance, roof repair, plus heated swimming pool and grand clubhouse access, taking the dollar value close to $500 per month.
- On the other hand, monthly HOA fees for single family homes, left to cover many of the condo-type costs themselves, are a little over $100 monthly.
The bottom line with non-equity country club lifestyles, such as the desirable Turtle Creek Club, is that it provides residents with secure, affordable, unsurpassed tranquility with limited amenities in magnificently manicured green spaces. This includes restful water outlooks from terraces, sidewalks, and in-community paths and trails - enhanced by the colorful flora and fauna growing naturally in South Florida.
From a pricing perspective, we researched closed deals this year. We discovered that the enclave is a high turnover location with 17 completed sales, two under contract, and one still MLS active.
To demonstrate, 13 Turtle Creek homes are currently available for sale. Values range from $242 to $1,467 per square foot (UA), and prices from $340,000 to $3,162,000 in absolute dollar terms. So, what does this mind-boggling variance tell us?
- Waterfront homes on the Loxahatchee River with yacht slips behind the house (minutes away from the Jupiter Inlet with no fixed bridges) reflect massive premium pricing significantly higher than the average.
- Waterfront condos, in general, bring up the rear end of the pricing range.
- Aside from (1) and (2) above, much depends on remodeled upgrades and vantage points on the campus.
Assessing fair value can be a daunting challenge for the home or condo buyer entering Turtle Creek as an acquisition possibility. Thus, you need an expert ZFC agent to eliminate the ambiguity that tends to hide the diamond in the rough you seek. Contact us today to learn more about what we can do to save thousands of dollars, as we have for many non-equity country club clients before.
