If you have a single family residential property this is the only HOA fee you pay. Sunriver maintains the road, the snow removal on the road, police protection and fire protection. The SROA (Sunriver Owners Association) is the governing body for community planning, including approvals for landscaping to paint colors.
Owning a Home in Sunriver in most cases also gives you the opportunity to use your Home for several types of investments. Some Home owners use their Sunriver Home as a second Home, others use it as a vacation rental and there are a few that are actually company retreats. Recently a few clients have pulled their money from different retirement accounts and purchased properties so these are now consider the retirement account, and you get to use the property while you purchase it, with the funds you would put into a retirement. I am not an accountant and am not completely clear of how you qualify for these types of investment if this intrigues you please contact your tax professionals.
