Stonebriar vs. Craig Ranch

Recommended Posts

Anyone switch from one to the other?

 

Currently a Stonebriar member but considering Craig Ranch for a variety of reasons. Just want to make sure I am not leaving one club just to have the same problems at another. Long process as current time to sell a Stonebriar membership is 18-20 months.

 

Primary concerns are over crowding and nickel and dime at Stonebriar. Obviously two very different clubs in terms of amenities and club size with Stonebriar at 900+ and TPC max of 350 members.

Stonebriar offers a refundable and non-refundable initiation deposit. The refundable initiation deposit gets you up to 90% of the current refundable initiation deposit rate, or what you paid, whichever is less. With the refundable initiation deposit, you have to give the club notice and keep paying dues until your membership is sold to someone else, currently taking 18-20 months as they do a 3:1 or 4:1. For every 3 or 4 memberships they sell, 1 of them is an existing membership and the others are new. Depending on the current promotion, initiation deposits are around $15k non-refundable and $30k refundable +/- a few grand.

Craig Ranch all the way. Especially if you don't care about pools and the social nonsense. The practice facilities are top-notch and the best for a club north of George Bush and the few times I have been invited to play out there, it's like a ghostland. If I had the money for the initiation fee, it would have been the club I picked instead of my current club (which I know don't regret joining).

Not a member of any club. But I have played Craig Ranch a couple times and loved it. Was empty for a Friday and Saturday. The practice facility was awesome and the staff was really nice, I don't care about the pool and all that stuff I just want to golf. If I had my choice it would be there. Loved the course and layout as well.

Was at stonebridge ranch years ago. I left for stonebriar. My buddies went to Craig ranch. They made a much better decision. If it's about golf, then I would do Craig all day.
