Overview
Possibly the standout affordable destination club, High Country Club is making a name for itself through quite aggressive pricing, rapid expansion, and pretty impressive feedback from satisfied members. Though homes are much smaller than most destination clubs, with an average value under $1m, they’re still very nice residences and would likely suit many less-than-large families.
