Sunset at Southglenn Country Club in Centennial, Colorado
Finally, an Affordable Country Club
Southglenn Country Club is a hidden gem located just west of University Blvd, near the Streets of Southglenn (formerly Southglenn Mall.) It features a 9-hole par 3 golf course, regulation length swimming pool, and tennis courts. Also, the clubhouse was just remodeled and can be rented out for events. This members-only club is not only affordable with dues under $1,500 for the whole year for the whole family!
In fact, you can say say this country club is on the opposite end of affordability compared to other fancier country clubs like Cherry Hills Country Club and the Denver Country Club. Those clubs require expensive initiation fees above $100,000 and monthly fees to match.
Why Southglenn Country Club?
Have you ever wanted to have a place where you can swim, play tennis, and golf with limitations and bot have to hand over a five or six-figure check?
I did. When I moved to the Southglenn area a little over two years ago, I found this little club while driving around and learning my new neighborhood. I love to golf and swim. So this was a lovely surprise to fall upon just a few blocks from my house. I immediately joined because I knew that this was a great amenity for my neighborhood. And,I wanted to make sure it stuck around to keep home values up. It added value not only as an amenity but, in the blink of an eye, it would be bought by developers and 100 townhomes or condos would take its place.
This would not only be miserable to live through the construction, but the idea of more traffic was not appealing. Ultimately, I made a great decision because this little club has connected me to my community and neighbors and also been a wonderful way to spend an afternoon on the course or at the pool.
The golf course is a par-3. However, there are two holes that are over 200 yards, allowing me to bust out my woods. It’s a great course to practice your short game too. The club is BYOB and encourages the members to bring their own libations. Also, there a ton of fun events from a Glow Ball and Grip It and Sip It tournament to Casino night and Food Truck Thursdays. Currently, the swimming pool is strictly members-only. The club takes COVID-19 very seriously and is taking all necessary precautions to ensure the safety of its members.
Why Join?
Due to the pandemic, the course has lost quite a few members. The club is suffering and needs donations and members. Currently, Southglenn Country Club is offering an opportunity to be a member for a day. If you’d like to try it out, click here.
For a full family, the cost of a membership for the entire year is only $1,400. Or if you want to help preserve this beautiful club, you can donate anything from goods to gift cards to their upcoming silent auction on September 12th, 2020. For more information about the club or to donate an item to the silent auction, contact their general manager, Amanda Rabenberg, at amanda.rabenberg@southglenncc.com.
