GARDEN CITY COUNTRY CLUB & NORTH HILLS COUNTRY CLUB

July 13, 2026

GARDEN CITY COUNTRY CLUB
Garden City Country Club’s golf course is a Walter J. Travis Design, Est. 1916. A true testament to the beauty and tradition of the game. Nestled in the charming community of Garden City, New York, this prestigious country club offers a captivating golfing experience. The course, meticulously designed and maintained, showcases rolling fairways lined with majestic trees and vibrant flora, creating a serene and picturesque backdrop for every round.

NORTH HILLS COUNTRY CLUB

North Hills Country Club, a prestigious establishment originally founded in 1927 at Douglaston Park, underwent relocation to North Hills, New York, during the 1960s. Renowned golf course architect Robert Trent Jones designed the exquisite golf course in North Hills in 1961. Situated on Long Island’s esteemed Gold Coast, a mere 17 miles from the bustling heart of New York City, this remarkable country club opened its doors to Jones’ remarkable course in Manhasset in 1962, garnering immediate acclaim from the press as one of his undeniable “master pieces.” Even today, the course maintains its status as a true gem in the world of golf.

OUR MISSION STATEMENT
