For those who yearn for a pure golf experience without the extra expense of a roster of other amenities, Imperial Golf Club’s 36 holes of golf are tough to beat. The two courses, by Arthur Hills and Ward Northrup (redesigned by Chip Powell), are always in peak condition and draw members from both inside and outside the community’s gates. The 40-year-old club is stable and member owned, with a professional and eager-to-please staff. And cash on hand exceeds outstanding debt by well over $1 million, something to contemplate while sipping a post round libation in the large and comfortable 10-years young clubhouse. Something else to contemplate: The club is part of the "North/South Alliance, providing members with reciprocal privileges at some private northern clubs during summer.
