Founded by William R. Farrand and several friends in 1899, the club started small but grew quickly and was formally opened in 1906. When additional property was bought in 1913, world-famous golf architect Donald Ross determined that two 18-hole courses could be built on the land. Work began in 1914. The current clubhouse, designed by Albert Kahn, was begun in 1916. Wartime problems hampered construction, but the clubhouse was finally completed in May 1918. Come explore this exclusive club and enjoy a wonderful luncheon!
