Country Club, Pepper Pike
The Country Club, located in Pepper Pike, a leafy outer suburb of Cleveland, is home to a revered William Flynn layout. Occupying 240 acres of rolling terrain, with a brook that runs through the middle of the course, most holes play to generous width fairways. Skirting alongside The Country Club to the east, is the separate and also private Pepper Pike Club. It too is home to an excellent layout originally crafted by William Flynn.
Private club; visitors/guests may only play if hosted by a member.
The Country Club (Pepper Pike) has staged many top level events over the years, although perhaps not quite as many as its namesake in Brookline, near Boston. Located in the outer suburbs of Cleveland, the former has played host to both the US Amateur (1935) and US Women's Amateur (2012) championships. (See our Tournaments section >by Venue >Country Club, Pepper Pike).
Ohio's 10th best course (Golf Digest, 2025/26).
World's former 93rd best course (GOLF magazine, 1993).
Presidents Cup: Geoff Ogilvy’s International Team take on Brandt Snedeker’s USA Team at the revered Medinah Country Club, near Chicago. The Internationals are trying to halt a run of 11 consecutive American wins. (Sept 24-27).
French Open: Continental Europe’s oldest national championship, dating from 1906, is once again staged on the Albatros Course at Le Golf National, near Paris. Defending champion is America’s Michael Kim. (Sept 24-27).
Our visit last month included two rounds at Golf de Chantilly, one of France’s most prestigious clubs.
It offers two superb layouts: Le Vineuil, a five-star championship course with a rich history, and Longères, an excellent four-star course that provides a strong and enjoyable test.
The wider Paris region offers plenty more. Courses such as Fontainebleau, Golf de Saint-Germain, and several other top-rated layouts make this area one of Europe’s most rewarding golf destinations, offering a mix of woodland, heathland, and parkland designs.
The Dutch: "It's no' just a game", as they say in Scotland, and that's certainly true at The Dutch. With 5-star services throughout, a lavishly comfortable Loch Lomond-inspired clubhouse, and a superbly designed and presented golf course, one could not ask for more from this top-end private club.
Join us at The Dutch from August 21–24 for the Festival of Golf, featuring the HotelPlanner Tour. Experience four days of top-tier sport, live music, incredible food, and unexpected surprises.
