I’ve been doing some research on the membership options available at Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster and found some varying information that I hope to get clarified here.
Membership Costs
From what I gather, the initiation fees range quite a bit, generally reported between $14,000 to $350,000. This is a huge spread, and I would love to know if anyone here could shed some light on:
What the actual fees are and any additional costs?
The breakdown of benefits associated with each level of membership.
Comparing to Other Clubs
Also, how does this membership fare compared to other Trump-owned golf clubs? Are the amenities and overall experience worth the price tag, especially when compared to clubs like Trump International in West Palm Beach or even other high-end golf venues?
Member Experiences
If you’re a current member or have been considering joining, I’d love to hear your thoughts:
What’s it like playing there?
Any hidden costs or surprises that come with the membership?
The overall value you perceive from being a member?

I’ve been looking into membership at Trump National Bedminster, and there are several tiers available. The most basic one starts around $25,000 initiation fee with annual dues around $8,000. Higher tiers offer more exclusive benefits like access to private events and dining.
Yes, in addition to golf, they host various social events throughout the year. Plus, members have access to fine dining options and the fitness center. Each tier increases your access to these amenities, so it can be worth it depending on your lifestyle.
That does sound appealing! Are there any reports on the quality of the dining or the atmosphere at these events? I’m picky about where I spend my money!
I think most people who have been there rave about the food quality and ambiance. It’s a luxury setting after all! Just remember, the higher the membership tier, the better the reservations. Definitely something to think about before joining.
It can seem that way, but many clubs operate on tiers. It helps manage the crowd and keeps the experience exclusive for those who invest more. But for me, it’s all about the golf and community!
The top tier members get things like preferred tee times, access to private tournaments, and personalized services. It’s definitely designed for avid golfers who can appreciate those perks.
That sounds nice! If I were to join, I might prefer those extra touches. But wow, you’d really have to commit financially. Would love to hear other opinions!
