Oh, and did we mention the stocked lakes for year round fishing?
We will be building a hunting lodge with sleeping rooms, showers, rec-room, and a great room with fire place.
We will also have an indoor archery range! As well as a skeet range on site.
Now here is what we don't know. We have not decided what the annual membership will be. We will cap the membership to perhaps 25 to 50 members.
Right now we are in the planning stages, and we are getting input. What would people be willing to pay for 24/7 year round use of private land, we are not sure yet. We are trying to save this land from development or Forest Preserve.
So let me see if I have this straight.
You are in the planning stages but you have to have some idea of the cost to purchase/taxes the land or lease/control it, construction costs, upkeep costs, etc..
It will be VERY, VERY EXCLUSIVE if you are seriously thinking only 25 - 50 members. I think maybe something could be worked out like a country club membership where purchasing a membership would be a set cost and there would be annual dues from there on.
But I certainly wish you the best. When things get moving along I look forward to learning more because I live in Will county.
