Toscana Country Club Membership Cost and What Homes Actually Sell For (2026)

At Toscana Country Club in Indian Wells, Resident Equity Golf lists a $180,000 initiation and $4,080 monthly dues for 2026-2027, Sports Club and Spa lists $120,000 and $1,850 ($1,840 on the membership page, so confirm in writing), and homes sold for a median of about $3.4 million over the past two years.

If you are shopping Toscana Country Club homes in Indian Wells for the 2026-2027 season, the list price is only half the spreadsheet. The club publishes a Resident Membership fee schedule labeled November 2026, and those initiation and dues figures belong next to HOA assessments, utilities, and insurance before you write an offer.

According to Toscana Country Club's Resident Membership brochure (November 2026), Resident Equity Golf initiation is $180,000 (non-refundable) with 2026-2027 monthly dues of $4,080. Resident Equity Sports Club and Spa initiation is $120,000 with 2026-2027 monthly dues of $1,850. One conflict to flag: the live membership page at toscanacc.com/membership currently shows Sports monthly dues as $1,840 while Golf matches the brochure at $4,080. Prefer the dated brochure, then confirm the Sports figure in writing with Membership before you lock a budget. Ownership of a home or homesite does not include Club membership. Membership still requires Membership Committee approval and payment of the initiation fee and dues. All dues, fees, and charges are subject to change.

What does Toscana Country Club membership cost for the 2026-2027 season?

The November 2026 Resident Membership brochure lists two Resident Equity tiers for the 2026-2027 season:

Resident Equity Golf Club Member: $180,000 non-refundable initiation; $4,080 monthly dues.

Resident Equity Sports Club and Spa Member: $120,000 non-refundable initiation; $1,850 monthly dues per the brochure ($1,840 on the membership page as of Nov 5, 2026).

For contrast only, the prior 2025-2026 season listed the same initiation amounts with monthly dues of $3,720 for Golf and $1,590 for Sports. Initiation is staged the same way this year: Golf applicants pay $36,000 with the membership application; Sports applicants pay $20,000 with the application. The balance is due within ten days after notification of approval. Equity members may resign and stop paying dues at the end of the sixth month after the Club receives their resignation notice.

Caps still matter for scarcity. Toscana is offering a maximum of 550 Equity Golf Memberships and 175 Equity Sports Club and Spa Memberships. Both offerings are Family Memberships. Golf Members have walk-on access with no tee times required, plus full use of Club Villa facilities. Sports Club and Spa Members enjoy the same Club Villa, spa, sports, dining, and social access, except the Jack Nicklaus Signature golf courses and golf practice facilities.

2026-2027 season guest golf fees in the brochure include accompanied member guests at $185 for 18 holes and unaccompanied guests at $300, plus a $30 per-person cart fee. Annual locker fee is $200. Annual golf cart fees are $700 (single) or $1,200 (couple). Caddy fee is $150 for 18 holes (1 to 4 persons), plus gratuity. Toscana states it does not charge a food and beverage minimum, a club storage fee, or an annual private golf cart trail fee.

Does buying a Toscana home include club membership?

No. Club materials state that ownership of a home or homesite does not include Club membership or rights in the Club facilities. Club membership is subject to Membership Committee approval and to payment of initiation fee and dues. That is the same structural point buyers miss at other desert clubs: the deed, the HOA, and the club application are separate ledgers.

Budget them as three lines. First, the home price and carrying costs. Second, HOA assessments (confirm the current amount, reserve study, and any special assessments in the association documents for the exact address). Third, the Club tier you actually intend to use, with initiation, monthly dues, and any guest or cart fees you will incur in a normal season. Confirm current figures with Membership at 760.404.1560 or membership@toscanacc.com.

What do Golf vs Sports memberships include at Toscana?

Golf Membership covers complete use of Toscana Country Club facilities, including both Jack Nicklaus Signature courses and golf practice facilities, Il Forno Trattoria, La Cucina, Il Caffe, Spa Bella Vita, the Sports and Tennis Club, resort pool, pickleball and bocce, the Golf Shop, the Bill Harmon Performance Center, locker rooms, and Villa Toscana.

Sports Club and Spa Membership covers the same Club facilities except the golf courses and golf practice facilities. That distinction is the practical decision for many households. If you will play several times a week, Golf dues are the cost of the lifestyle you came for. If tennis, pickleball, spa, dining, and the social calendar are the draw, Sports can be the better fit, and the brochure's monthly-dues gap between tiers is large enough to change an annual ownership model.

The Club Villa complex anchors daily life: dining venues with fairway and mountain views, Spa Bella Vita with treatment suites, a Sports Club with fitness and movement studios, a Junior Olympic resort pool, and the Charlie Pasarell Tennis Center with a stadium court, four additional tournament courts, and ten dedicated pickleball courts. Official Club materials describe 631 homes and estate sites surrounding the two Nicklaus courses.

How should buyers frame Toscana home pricing next to membership?

Flexmls shows 68 single-family closes at Toscana Country Club in Indian Wells between Nov 5, 2024 and Nov 5, 2026, all fee simple. The median sold price was about $3.4 million ($3,399,999.50, the midpoint of the two middle closes), with a range of $2,050,000 to $7,000,000 and a median near $864 per square foot. Approximate median time to close was about 72 days, measured from on-market date to close because the MLS days-on-market field was not available. As of the morning of Nov 5, 2026, seven homes were active at a median list price of $2,750,000 (range $2,095,000 to $4,495,000), with an approximate median of six days on market and no price reductions among the seven. One more home was pending.

The HOA is a separate line from the Club. Association Fee 1 shows $750 per month on all seven actives and on 67 of the 68 solds (one 2024 close showed $662). That is the HOA assessment, not club dues. The MLS does not disclose club initiation or dues; several public remarks say only that a golf membership is "available," with no dollar amount. Use the brochure for Club figures and the association packet for HOA, then underwrite the specific address against fresh comps.

Here is a rough payment illustration, not a quote. At the median sold price of $3,399,999.50 with 20% down, the loan is about $2,720,000. On a 30-year fixed at 7.18%, the Freddie Mac PMMS average as of Nov 5, 2026, principal and interest come to an estimated $18,426 per month. That figure excludes property taxes, insurance, HOA, and club dues. Add those as separate lines: HOA at $750 per month, plus Golf dues of $4,080 per month or Sports dues of $1,850 per month from the brochure, plus the initiation for whichever tier you choose. Closed homes sold for a median of about 96% of original list price across the same 68 sales.
