Country club living at Eagle Ridge

To make the great escape from city life, think "up-country". By Sta. Lucia Realty & Development, Inc.’s standards, "up-country" is a literal definition of the property’s top of the world mix of the up sides of the golf and country club lifestyle.

First off, the golf and country club realty concept was presumably borne out of the singular rituals of the golfing game – after a game its off to the taverns for the players to review the days’ golf adventure and make good on their wagers. This means, one: they need a place to celebrate and rest up; and two: the countryside has the open space, ridges, hollows, gullies and terrain that gave the simple game a certain degree of difficulty that will draw out signature skill and finesse. And that is the golfer’s pride and ability to draw out the drama of a hole-in-one, and of course to get to this point, the player has to get into the swing of it on a regular basis and be able to exchange notes and exercise his boasting rights – hence the club membership concept.

Meanwhile, his coterie of golfing partners, appreciative audience and family has to be as leisurely occupied and entertained – hence the country club concept where a clubhouse should have all the cosmopolitan creature comforts that could possibly be brought out of the city and into the country setting. After all, citified folks prefer to be far from the madding crowd and traffic but isolated confinement with not much to do is not ideal. Eventually, concessions were made to accommodate the avid golfer or golfing family who prefers to stay on the green and make their investment work for them all year-round. Hence, Eagle Ridge Golf & Country Club.

Living large is Eagle Ridge Golf & Residential Estates’ way – with a 700-hectare, four 18-hole golf courses with three clubhouses, a 60-rooms hotel, a town center and residential community.
