Though he won91裸聊视频檛 be putting away his golf clubs any time soon, Rick Jager is ready to let go of Eagle River Golf & Country Club.

Located in Sicamous along the Eagle River, the approximately 35-acre golf course is currently listed for $2.85 million. The nine-hole course with practice putting green includes a two-level clubhouse with full kitchen and seating for 142 people as well as two residential suites, over 3,000 feet of Eagle River frontage with access and water rights, 10 fully serviced RV camping sites along the river, a five-bay garage and more.

Jager said a lot of work has gone into the golf course since he and his late wife, Marianne, purchased it from friends in 1987.

91裸聊视频淲hen we first bought it they called it 91裸聊视频榯he Farm,91裸聊视频�91裸聊视频� laughed Jager. 91裸聊视频淲e91裸聊视频檝e done a lot. We91裸聊视频檝e rebuilt greens and fairways and added onto the club house, built a huge deck. We now have an approval for a 5,000-square foot patio/staging area out the front. We91裸聊视频檒l be able to handle weddings and, you know, company parties, larger groups, maybe some entertainers.91裸聊视频�

At 75 years old, Jager said he91裸聊视频檚 ready to make a change in his life.

We love the place, we put our hearts and souls into it for years. But it91裸聊视频檚 time to get some younger people in here, some young blood, to change and improve things a little more.91裸聊视频�

Jager said there91裸聊视频檚 still plenty of opportunity to grow the business and ways for the future owners to make their mark.

91裸聊视频淪ledders are asking, why don91裸聊视频檛 you keep the restaurant and lounge open and the bar for winter, so we can come, we91裸聊视频檝e got a place where we can park our sleds?91裸聊视频� said Jager. 91裸聊视频淭here91裸聊视频檚 a real big parking lot here, they can park and come and have dinner and a little bit of fun before they go home to bed for the next day91裸聊视频檚 work.91裸聊视频�

Over the years, Jager has seen golfers of all ages make use of the greens at Eagle River, referring to the sport as something families can enjoy together.

91裸聊视频淚t91裸聊视频檚 one of the only sports around where the whole family, great grandma and grandpa, 90 years old, can still go out and play with great grandchildren,91裸聊视频� said Jager. 91裸聊视频淚t91裸聊视频檚 a family sport. There91裸聊视频檚 not too many like that. Maybe bowling.91裸聊视频�

While he91裸聊视频檚 looking forward to seeing ownership of Eagle River Golf & Country Club in someone else91裸聊视频檚 hands, his own hands will continue to be swinging clubs there.
