History

Families throughout Westchester and the New York City metropolitan area have been enjoying Knollwood Country Club since it’s founding in 1894, when Knollwood was one of the first 15 clubs to join the USGA and iconic golfers including Francis Ouimet and Bobby Jones frequented the club. Over the years, the club and its members have endured two world wars, depressions, recessions and a devastating fire. But as a 1927 edition of the club’s newsletter reported,

“There is something more, not easily described – that indefinable something called spirit – ever present at Knollwood from the beginning and therefore old, yet virile and therefore young.”

This member-owned club is less than 30 minutes from Midtown Manhattan and features a complete country club experience, with championship golf, tennis courts, a pool, fitness center, bocce courts and amazing food. Come experience the Knollwood Country Club spirit for yourself!
