Video of the club and course. It's really a golf club. No swimming pool, tennis courts, etc.

Golfweek article (11/18/2018): https://golfweek.com/2018/11/18/golf-life-seeking-reinvention-a-ross-classic-goes-on-the-market/ (https://golfweek.com/2018/11/18/golf-life-seeking-reinvention-a-ross-classic-goes-on-the-market/)         Excerpts: "Rhode Island’s preeminent “player’s club,” having produced more state amateur winners than anywhere else. Brad Faxon grew up here (and at Rhode Island CC)...."Metacomet didn’t become a “player’s club” by accident. No matter how the club reinvents itself in the years ahead, one suspects that this basic character is likely to endure"

Most of those listings are pretty old.  The club in Nebraska was sold 18-24 months ago.
