Incredible golf courses & amenities
The company commissions the best golf course architects in the world, including Robert Trent Jones Jr. and Tom Fazio, to design spectacular and scenic courses, with their trademark clubhouses and comfort stations setting incredibly high standards in golf course amenities.
The comfort stations are relaxing havens to take a mid-round break to enjoy a drink, snack or even something more substantial from an on-course gourmet chef.
Memorable experiences
The Outdoor Pursuits program is also a key feature of each location and offers members the chance to enjoy an array of activities which have been tailored specific to the destination.
At Baker’s Bay Golf & Ocean Club, this means snorkelling, fishing, boating, and kitesurfing; while at Silo Ridge Field Club in New York, options include clay shooting, horseback riding, archery, and hiking.
