Snake River Sporting Club
Few places epitomize the west better than
Jackson Hole, Wyo. Here, along the banks of the Snake River, is an ideal site for active pursuits: the Snake River Sporting
Club. Like its eastern counterpart, the Greenbrier Sporting Club, the Snake River Sporting
Club, scheduled for full build-out in 2007 (the golf course and hiking trails are open now),
will welcome families looking to put down roots in one of the most beautiful spots in the
country.
“We expect it to be popular with families who want a multi generational home,”
says Patti Spaniak, director of marketing. “It will appeal to people who love to ski and
hike and fly-fish–who really enjoy the outdoors.”
Activities at Snake River include fishing
6.5 miles of frontage, horseback riding and mastering the Tom Weiskopf course. Top and middle photographs by Steve Mcbride. (Click images to enlarge); function voidFunc() { } voidFunc();)

Located approximately 15 miles south of Jackson Hole, the club occupies a
spectacular piece of property in the Teton Valley. Owners have access
to the club’s 61Ú2-mile
stretch of the Snake River, with its prime
fishing for cutthroat trout. The club is bordered
on three sides by 3.4
million acres of the Bridger-Teton National Forest and encompasses 544
acres itself (nearly 90 percent of that land will remain preserved).
Some of America’s
most well-preserved wilderness areas can be
found nearby. Both Grand Teton
National Park and Yellowstone National
Park are within an hour’s drive, and Jackson Hole
Mountain Resort, one
of the best ski mountains in the country, lies a few minutes away.
The members-only amenities will include a Tom Weiskopf 18-hole championship
golf course, one of only two private courses in Teton County. There will be a members’ lodge,
a helipad, an equestrian center, a sports complex, a spa with natural hot springs and a
resident naturalist.
Reservations are being taken for the 60-plus home sites, which range in size
from one-half acre to 35 acres. Prices have yet to be announced.
