Stefan’s take
Mariposa has the Old World look I love: custom-style residences with lake views over the Arthur Hills Sunset Course. About 40 homes and plenty of character.

Golf, Tennis and the Clubhouse
Living in Mariposa puts the full Mirasol lifestyle a short golf-cart ride away. The Grand Clubhouse is the heart of the community, with several dining venues, and the club continues to invest under a multi-year master plan. Golfers have two 18-hole championship courses: the Sunrise Course by Tom Fazio and the Sunset Course by Arthur Hills, renovated by J. Drew Rogers in 2018. Mirasol hosted the PGA TOUR’s Honda Classic from 2003 to 2006. Racquet players enjoy 15 lighted clay tennis courts, and the Esplanade Sports and Pool Center adds fitness, pools and a spa.
The Country Club at Mirasol is member-owned, and homeowners typically hold at least a social membership, with golf and sports options available. Confirm the current membership requirements and costs for the specific home you are considering. With about 850 acres of preserve and Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary certification, Mirasol feels spacious, green and relaxed, and Mirasol Walk with Publix is right next door.

Before You Make an Offer
- Associations: budget for the Mariposa neighborhood association and the Mirasol master association.
- Club membership: confirm the current membership requirement, equity contribution and dues for the home you are considering, and which category (golf, sports or social) fits how you live.
- Flood and insurance: ask for the elevation certificate if one exists, and get wind and flood quotes during your inspection period.
- Taxes after you buy: your bill resets to market value after a sale, so file for homestead with the Palm Beach County Property Appraiser by March 1 if the home will be your primary residence.
