Frequently Asked Questions

1. How do the complimentary ski and golf benefits work?
As a River Club Owner, you will also be a member of the Telluride Ski & Golf Club entitling you to complimentary lift passes for owner and spouse/significant other while in-residence. During the summer, owner, spouse/significant other and children age 23 and younger do not pay a golf green fee while in residence. It is that simple.


2. May I leave things in storage at the River Club?
Yes, all owners at the River Club have use of storage bins, as well as the ability to store skis/snowboards. A 2-bedroom owner is entitled to four bins and four pairs of skis/snowboards. A 3-bedroom owner is entitled to six bins and six pairs of skis/snowboards. Storage bins will be placed in the owner’s unit for each of their upcoming arrivals.


3. Are pets allowed at the River Club?
