Actually I think the membership is good value. For the $925 annual fee, you get reduced greens fees and priority tee times. So you get to chose where you want to play ahead of those who are not priority members. Using the CC pools is OK but not a requirement. Although the resort pool atmosphere at Orange Blossom is quite nice. And if you use the community pools, the CC pools are less crowded in season.

The reduced greens fee pays for itself if you and your spouse play over once a week on average, so 50 times a year. Its about a $10 saving per person in the summer and $20 per person in the winter for each 18 hole round.
