When it comes to finding your own peace and quiet, living on a golf course comes to mind as the perfect remedy. Doesn’t it? The tranquility of a slower game. The gorgeously manicured grass and landscape. That sweet smell of blossoming flowers, freshly mowed greens, and dewy blades of grass sparkling in the morning light. A near guarantee of quietude when stepping out onto your back patio.
Yes, there’s a lot of that when you live on a golf course, plus the physical, mental and investment benefits, too.
A new home on a golf course typically comes with a bevy of amenities whether you’re planning on joining the golf club or not. Oftentimes, those amenities are part of the larger community that your backyard golf course also calls home. That’s exactly the case when living in Sugar Hills and Festival, the two residential neighborhoods of RainDance National Resort & Golf.
Whether it’s pools, parks, trails, convenient access to your lifestyle’s needs, or what the future holds for a burgeoning locale, these are all ripe reasons to look closer at living in a new or custom home on a golf course.
Let’s dive deeper with these five specific benefits of living on a golf course. And this is just a start. You can experience the benefits for yourself by making a visit to RainDance National and touring model homes and custom homesites.
- The Health Benefits of Living on a Golf Course
There are a few obvious health benefits when you live on or next to a golf course. First and foremost: more golf.
The more rounds you play, the more stress relieving time on the course you’ll have, under the sun, and keeping your body in motion. Plus, if you opt to walk, you can burn up to 2,000 calories on the average course. However, RainDance National isn’t your average as it’s been dubbed the longest golf course in North America at more than 8,400 yards in total.
Beyond the physical wellness, there’s the mental benefits of living on a golf course. Like the stress relief and concentration-building facets of golfing regularly. As well as the time in the sun soaking up more vitamin D to boost your immune system and your mood.
- A Prime Real Estate Investment
Primo views. Neighborhoods full of upstyled homes. Manicured and well-kempt landscaping year-round. Those are all factors in maintaining and increasing the value of your home investment.
Best of all, interest in golf course communities is on the rise with more of our workforce looking toward retirement or a semi-retired lifestyle. Research shows that properties fronting a golf course are listed at 15 to 30 percent more than comparable residences, which is more than the typical 8 to 10 percent increase for homes fronting a passive park.
Along with custom homesites overlooking the golf course, there are luxury new homes by Trumark Homes and American Legend Homes that come with all the treasures of living in the neighborhoods of RainDance National Resort & Golf.
Owning a home on a golf course is an investment that gives back in more ways than financial terms.
- Neighbors (and Properties) Like You
When you live in a golf course community, chances are you’re going to be living among people with similar interests, aspirations and social wants.
Some like more privacy, and that’s a given here. Others like to mingle and find a new golf partner every other round or two. And, these neighbors probably share your age and similar values with similar experiences to talk about on the course.
No matter how much or how little you plan on making new friends, socializing is an important part of healthy aging. It helps maintain our self-confidence, reduces stress, and boost cognitive health among other qualities. Knowing that you’ve got a community around you that enjoys what you do, with lots of fun events and things to do to bring neighbors together, the opportunity to expand your social circle surrounds you.
And it’s not just the people that are like you, it’s the residences, too. High quality and well-crafted. Unique architecture. Gorgeous landscaping that changes with the seasons. It’s why coming home to your golf course community feels like you’re truly “home.”
- Amenities Galore That Include Golf and More
It’s not just a fun rhyme. It’s the truth. Especially at RainDance National Resort & Golf.
Golf course homes come with a host of things to do. Like trail systems and cart paths for an evening stroll. Parks dotted throughout neighborhoods. And oftentimes even a pool or two. And that’s important for the homeowners that opt not to join the golf or social club with access to clubhouses and golf areas.
Here, RainDance National lives within the RainDance community that’s chock-full of character-themed parks, a pool with lazy river, neighborhood grill and events center. So, beyond the golfing activities, there’s plenty to keep you and the extended family occupied (and happy).
Within RainDance National is the 65,000 square foot GOAT Ranch Golf Practice Area, pro shop, 18-hole championship course that’s ranked third best in the world by Kingdom Magazine, Hoedown Hill for sledding, concerts and events, and even more that’s planned.
- Living Your Life More Lively
Living in a golf course community comes with its quietude, yes, and it also comes with a plethora of lively events. You can enjoy the annual members tournaments, holiday gatherings, and overlook special events like weddings, fundraisers and more. Oftentimes, you can even get a frontrow seat to a concert or fireworks.
Since its establishment in 2019, RainDance has been known for its events. From $25,000 giveaways to multi-day concerts and annual corn mazes, the community knows how to have a good time.
Plus, Hoedown Hill at RainDance National that’s planned to open Thanksgiving 2023, will offer a major outdoor venue for concerts and seasonal fun like a sledding hill. But that’s not all RainDance National has to offer to now and in the near future.
