Ouch. Mine is $65/yr and 4 miles away. Also have a free one 35 distant.

Our little range that got closed down was only about 10 minutes from my house. Dues were $70 per year for one person with family memberships being only slightly more. We had a 50 yd pistol range with falling plate targets for both centerfire pistols and for rimfire pistols and rifles and a 100 yard rifle range with a 20 foot tall earthen berm for a backstop. We also had moveable target racks that could be placed at any distance from 7 yds to 100 yds. There was a nice long shooting shelter with a variety of benches and tables and a graveled area in front for standing to shoot. Nothing fancy, but very functional. It will be missed by the 120 or so members that used the facility.
