About us:

The Country Club is a private 18-hole facility located on 250 acres in Pepper Pike, Ohio.  Known for being a family-oriented club, it provides numerous amenities to its members with the golf course being the focal point.  Famed golf course architect William Flynn masterfully blended the routing of each golf hole with the natural topography to create a gem that is regarded as one of Flynn’s greatest designs and consistently ranks as one of the top courses in Ohio. The rich history of the club also includes hosting national events with the 1935 U.S. Amateur and the 2012 U.S. Women’s Amateur. The course underwent a major restoration in 2022 with the guidance of Gil Hanse to recreate its original design. Following the restoration, the club was included in the group of “Restoration of the year” according to Golf Digest. The work included green expansions, complete bunker renovation, re-seeding of all fairways, new irrigation as needed, and a new short game facility. It now boasts two of the Top 100 holes in the country, which are holes #15 and #17. The club enjoys a state-of-the-art maintenance facility that was built in 2013 providing the team with the resources necessary for success. Thanks to a progressive membership the ongoing projects to improve Country will continue for years to come creating great opportunities to learn.
