Golf isn’t the only activity that’s near Ivanhoe Estates. Between the Ivanhoe Club, the natural beauty of the county and local parks, there’s plenty to do for the nature lover within just a few miles of the Ivanhoe Estates gate.
Ivanhoe Club
Even if you’re not a golfer, there is plenty to do at the exclusive and luxurious Ivanhoe Club. You can play tennis on clay courts or spend a day at the Olympic swimming pool, or enjoy gourmet meals and some libations at any of Ivanhoe Club’s three onsite bars. If you want to just sit outside and enjoy nature, a popular activity amongst Ivanhoe Club members is fishing bass from its ponds that are regularly stocked with fish.
In addition, you can pay Bridge, Poker or any number of card games with fellow Ivanhoe Club members. This exclusive club is an excellent way to enjoy the weekend – even if you’re not a championship-level golfer.
It is important to note that the Ivanhoe Club is a private golf club requiring a paid membership wholly separate from your Association dues. All golf club grounds and activities are for Ivanhoe Club members only. Homeownership does not include membership.
Ivanhoe Estates homeowners that join the Club enjoy close proximity to the club. Many homeowners choose to take advantage of this proximity, own golf carts and are avid golfers, but not all Ivanhoe Estates homeowners apply or pay the necessary fees. Most of the members of the Ivanhoe Club do not live within the community.
