Hammock Dunes Club

What Hammock Dunes Club does

Hammock Dunes Club is a private, for-profit oceanfront country club located in Palm Coast, Florida, operating on the Atlantic Coast of the United States. Founded in 1989, the club serves a membership of affluent golf enthusiasts and families seeking an exclusive coastal lifestyle, with members drawn primarily from the United States and Canada. The core offering is access to two Audubon-certified championship 18-hole golf courses — the Tom Fazio-designed oceanfront Links Course (opened 1989) and the Rees Jones-designed Creek Course (opened 2003) meandering through 690 acres — supported by a 40,000+ sq ft Links Clubhouse and a 'Low Country' style Creek Clubhouse.

The club's product surface extends well beyond golf to include a 5,500 sq ft oceanfront fitness center equipped with LifeFitness machines, five Har-Tru tennis courts, six pickleball courts, three oceanside croquet lawns, four bocce courts, a heated pool and spa, and multiple dining venues (Seaside Dining Room, Oceanview Ballroom, Dunes Tavern, and Creek Clubhouse). An on-site AdventHealth sports medicine partnership provides physical therapy and Titleist Performance Institute (TPI) conditioning. Technology is consumer-grade: Bluetooth-enabled fitness equipment, digital screens, a Playmate ball machine, and a member portal. The club maintains both Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube presence and a dedicated membership sales function.

The business model is recurring membership dues from a private, gated membership base, supplemented by F&B, retail (Platinum 'Best of the Best' Golf Shop 2022), wedding/banquet revenue from the oceanfront ballroom, and philanthropic/charitable distributions (over $180,000 in 2025 via Hammock Dunes Cares). Acquisition is sales-led through a Membership Director and Membership Sales Director using a $1,500-per-couple Discovery Package that bundles golf, dining, lodging, and facility tours, with member referrals and real-estate channel partnerships as key demand sources. Individual membership pricing is not publicly disclosed. The club is privately held with no parent company, no funding rounds, and no institutional investors disclosed.
