Considering buying a home in Copper Mill. Good or bad idea?

I really like the area and feels like it would be a great fit for me and my family.
However, the steep HOA fees ($750 annual plus whatever golf would be) and financial stability of the golf course concern me a little.
What does the future hold for Copper Mill?
What says the great MT?

HOA just bought the golf course. Not sure how that will go. The persons that caused the instability of the golf course are out of the picture and that is certainly a good thing. It was almost another Jim Tanner/Bluffs type situation. In fact, if that transaction did not happen, I'm almost certain it would have been closed down in the next few months.
As far as the neighborhood, there is a filing that was sold off to a mass builder (Level) a while back. There is some thought that those houses will pull down the value overall. I don't care for the way some of the people tend to act out there, but I'm sure its no worse then any other upper middle class neighborhood in this country.
In and around Zachary, I'd look to the new subdivision being built on Rollins, Sunnyside/Beaver Creek (or the Plains in general), Mills Pointe, Richland or Pin Oak (all on Pride-Port Hudson). Those are the targets for my next move.
If golf is a big deal I would lean Beaver Creek over Copper Mill because of the uncertainty.
ETA: To the point I think you are wanting -- no I don't think the value of houses in the neighborhood will drop wildly for any particular reason.

Are you looking in the new part where DSLD is building or in the back part? They are starting to build homes in Americana now and Don Hunt who is a big builder in Zachary just started a new development on Rollins Rd. The home prices have been stagnant from what I can tell and a lot of people got pissed when the original developer sold the front lots to DSLD.
I think I am going to buy a lot in Don Hunt's new development and build there. My Dad had him build his house and was very pleased. Don has assured folks that he will not sell out to track builders.

I don't know where you live now, but a friend of mine lives there and his property is pretty high for the area. I know it is a nice area, but something else to factor in.
