North Carolina Retirement Golf Communities, Not Just For GolfersOver the years I have met with families who for one reason or another indicated that they were averse to living in a golf retirement community. Despite the myriad of additional amenities, they were opposed to any setting that featured golf.A typical objection centered on the fact that they were not golfers and didn't want to pay for an amenity that they had no intention of using. Naturally, not wanting to pay for an amenity that they wouldn't use is understandable, however being required to pay additional fees in golf community is a common misconception. The vast majority of golf communities featured on Carolina Ocean Living are public or semi-private courses, where the support for the course is provided specifically by golfing residents and none residents.
