The Golf Club

Private: A course for members and their invited guests only.

Est. 1967

The Golf Club, located just outside Columus, Ohio, is home to one of the top-rated and finest championship golf courses in Ohio. The excellent tree-lined and open parkland layout contains a wealth of wonderfully crafted, memorable and challenging holes. Definitely a course that will challenge your all-round game. However, this is a private course generally playable only by members and their guests.

Did you know?

The Golf Club was founded in 1967 by Fred Jones whose simple goal was to have a private club where he and his friends could play golf and enjoy themselves. To design his course, Jones took a chance on a virtually unknown architect by the name of Pete Dye. During construction, a frequent visitor was Columbus native Jack Nicklaus, whose suggestions Dye valued. Dye and Nicklaus teamed up a couple of years later at Harbour Town Golf Links, a course that catapulted Dye into prominence and started Nicklaus’ prolific player-architect career.
