Make Page Six a Preferred Source Welcome to the club — literally.
Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner can now count themselves among the members of the ultra-exclusive Indian Creek Country Club in Florida.
A source tells us a “notice to membership” will be going out. “The Kushners did get in.”
Page Six exclusively reported that the couple purchased a $30 million-plus lot of land on the gated island known as the “Billionaire Bunker” in 2020 and have since added more property.
At the time, however, it seemed like they weren’t exactly being welcomed with open arms, due to political feelings about Trump’s father, President Donald Trump.
A source told Page Six on Jan. 13, 2021, just after the Insurrection, that “it only takes one member to object against any new member, and many members are objecting, particularly after the events at the Capitol on Jan. 6. Jared and Ivanka can lunch with their fellow ‘patriots’ at Mar-a-Lago.”
Since then, the couple has been putting in the work to get to know their neighbors.
The Wall Street Journal reported in August that the couple had been making efforts, with Kushner becoming a council member on Indian Creek Village’s governing board. The couple also attended members’ events and Trump was invited onto the golf course by current members.
“The social tide is turning,” the article reported. “Jared and Ivanka are edging ever closer to club membership, according to a person familiar with the club’s current thinking.”
But it’s not just Trump and Kushner who had to put in their time. The club is famous for having a slow process that can take years.
Located on an elite island near Miami, they take members from both inside and outside the neighborhood, which is reportedly home to just 41 residences.
Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez, who own $234 million worth of real estate spread out over three properties on the island, have been trying to secure membership, but have not yet succeeded. He first bought in 2023.
A source previously told Page Six that the high-profile pair are also likely to get in. They just have to bide their time.
“No one is going to make it easy because he is Jeff Bezos,” says a source. “You have to go to mixers. You don’t just move there and think you can get in. For anyone.”
Page Six previously reported that neighbors don’t do “much spontaneous socializing,” meaning would-be club members have to put in the effort.
A source explained, “There aren’t that many golf clubs [in Miami], and there is huge demand. It’s very hard to get into any of them, but Indian Creek is the hardest.”
Mark Zuckerberg and members of the Qatari royal family, who also live in the neighborhood, have not been granted access.
Current and former residents of Indian Creek include billionaire Carl Icahn, former Philadelphia Eagles owner Norman Braman, former Miami Dolphins coach Don Shula, Hotels.com co-founder Robert Diener, supermodel Adriana Lima, hedge funder Eddie Lampert and billionaire Jeff Soffer.
