About Country of Clubs

Making country club information easier to find, understand and compare

Country of Clubs is an independent research publication and directory covering golf and country clubs across the United States.

Launched in 2021, the website brings together publicly documented information about membership costs, dues, amenities, golf facilities, access policies and Club locations. Our goal is to help prospective members, golfers and researchers understand their options without searching through dozens of disconnected sources.

Our purpose

What we help visitors discover

Membership costs

Published initiation fees, recurring dues, membership categories, additional charges and documented minimum first-year costs where suitable evidence is available.

Club features

Golf courses, racquet facilities, pools, fitness amenities, dining, practice facilities, operating policies and other researched Club characteristics.

Ways to compare

Tools for finding Clubs by name, location, price, membership type and amenities, as well as side-by-side comparisons and nearby Club discovery.

How we work

Structured research—not anonymous listings

Our research may use official Club websites, membership documents, fee schedules, application materials, course and association records, reputable publications and other attributable public sources.

Information is organized into structured Club records so that costs, facilities and membership details can be compared consistently. Blank information is treated as unknown—not zero, free or unavailable.

Each Club profile displays its supporting sources whenever suitable evidence is available. Repeated sources are consolidated so visitors can see which parts of the profile each source supports.

Editorial standards

Independence, accuracy and corrections

Country of Clubs is not a Club broker, membership agent or official representative of the Clubs listed in the directory. A listing does not imply a commercial relationship, endorsement or guarantee of membership availability.

Prices, waiting lists, policies and facilities can change. We encourage readers to review the sources shown on each profile and confirm important details directly with the Club.

Readers and Club representatives may submit factual corrections. Suggested changes do not overwrite a Club record automatically; they enter an editorial review process before being accepted, published as a community note or dismissed.
