Yes. Alden Woods carries the Amenities Covenant, so Players Club & Spa membership is mandatory for every home — there's no opting out, and the dues are part of your fixed cost of ownership here.

Players Club & Spa membership in Alden Woods runs about a $10,000 refundable deposit plus roughly $6,400 a year (+6% tax), on top of your HOA dues. Because membership is mandatory here, budget it as a fixed annual cost. Figures change — confirm current rates with the Club.

Roughly ~$1,278/quarter + Players Club dues — verify. HOA dues typically cover community maintenance and common areas (often landscaping), but usually do not include Players Club dues. Confirm the current amount and exactly what's covered for the specific home.
