What Hunters Run does

Hunters Run Country Club is a privately held, mandatory-membership country club community in Boynton Beach, Florida, operating on approximately 990 acres with 1,649 residences (condominiums, villas, townhomes, and single-family homes) and a 145,000 square foot clubhouse. Founded in 1979 by Frankel Enterprises and turned over to member ownership in 1989, the property offers three 18-hole championship golf courses (North, South, East), 18 Har-Tru tennis courts and 12 USAPA pickleball courts, a fitness center equipped with Technogym, True Fitness, and Peloton, seven restaurant venues, a full-service salon and spa, 17 guest suites in The Lodge, and more than 20 member-led special interest clubs. Membership is offered in three tiers — Social, Racquet Sports, and Golf — with all homeowners required to maintain membership, and the property supports reciprocal play agreements with other private golf clubs. Revenue is generated from recurring membership dues and initiation fees, real estate sales of club-owned units (condos starting at $99,900), food and beverage operations across seven venues, and guest lodge accommodations with seasonal nightly rates of $195-$395.

The business operates under a member-owned governance structure with a 300+ employee team led by COO Larry Savvides (appointed September 2021), Assistant General Manager Jennifer Chavez, CFO Dan Duggan, and functional directors across golf, racquet sports, fitness, culinary, food and beverage, marketing, technology, agronomy, security, and people and culture. Distribution is direct-to-consumer through a website, social channels, scheduled tours, and a bimonthly Hunters Run Magazine that won a Florida Media Conference Gold Award for Custom Publications in 2022; the club also partners with Compass Florida for real estate listings. The business is currently executing a multi-year capital program branded 'Progress in Motion,' anchored by the $10 million East Course renovation completed in 2025, the March 2024 Toptracer Driving Range renovation that earned a Top 50 Private Club Driving Range designation, and a $21 million Racquet Sports Complex scheduled to begin construction in Summer 2026 with completion targeted for 2028.
