Burlingame Membership Categories: Finding Your Perfect Fit
Nestled in the breathtaking Blue Ridge Mountains at 3,000 feet, Burlingame Country Club offers more than just spectacular views. It provides a genuine community where families create what we fondly call “The Best of Times.” Choosing the right membership category is about finding where you and your loved ones will flourish within our 1,450-acre mountain haven. Whether you’re drawn to our championship golf course, seeking wellness opportunities, or looking for meaningful social connections, there’s a membership option crafted with your lifestyle in mind.
Legacy Membership: Creating Family Traditions
For those seeking to establish a multi-generational connection to Burlingame, our Legacy Membership stands as our premier offering. Purposefully designed for families who value tradition and continuity, this transferable membership can be passed down through family lines, creating an enduring bond with our community.
Legacy members enjoy complete access to every amenity Burlingame offers – from priority tee times on our Tom Jackson-designed golf course to preferred reservations at Elevation 3042 and our other distinctive dining venues. Beyond the tangible benefits, Legacy members become stewards of the Burlingame experience, helping shape the community’s future while honoring its thoughtful beginnings.
Full Golf Membership: For the Mountain Golf Enthusiast
Our Full Golf Membership caters to those who find joy in our championship course, where every hole offers both challenge and beauty. Members at this level experience golf as it should be – unhurried rounds through mountain terrain where the natural landscape creates an ever-changing canvas.
But even our most dedicated golfers will tell you that Burlingame transcends the fairways. This membership includes full access to our wellness center, swimming pool, and lawn sports complex featuring tennis, pickleball, and croquet courts. Golf members regularly gather at our riverside dining spots, creating those golden, sparkling moments of connection that define the Burlingame experience.
Sports & Wellness Membership: Active Living in Nature’s Embrace
Many of our most active members rarely set foot on the golf course, finding their joy instead through our comprehensive Sports & Wellness offerings. This membership category opens doors to our fitness center with its panoramic mountain views, our refreshing swimming pool, and tournament-quality court sports.
Sports & Wellness members form vibrant communities around shared interests – morning yoga followed by coffee on the Outdoor Dining Deck, competitive yet friendly pickleball matches, or rejuvenating spa treatments. They enjoy special access to our hiking trails that wind through the property, showcasing the natural beauty that makes Burlingame uniquely special.
Social Membership: Community, Cuisine, and Connection
The heart of Burlingame beats strongest in our community gatherings, and our Social Membership celebrates this essential aspect of club life. Social members enjoy access to all dining venues, community events, and select amenities including our three-acre dog park along the Horse Pasture River.
This category often appeals to those who value the warmth of genuine connections over extensive recreational facilities. Social members frequently describe Burlingame as “a family reunion except everybody likes each other” – a telling phrase that captures the unpretentious, welcoming atmosphere that defines our community.
Finding Your Perfect Fit: Questions to Consider
