Ivy Hills Country Club

Frequently Asked Questions

How can I play Ivy Hills Country Club if I'm not a member?

Ivy Hills is primarily a members-only club, so your best bet is to secure an invitation from an existing member. They do occasionally host charity events or corporate outings that offer a rare chance to play, so keep an eye on their public calendar. We recommend reaching out to your network; you might be surprised who has a connection.

What makes Ivy Hills' course design stand out, and is it challenging for all handicaps?

You'll find Ivy Hills truly shines with its clever use of natural elevation changes and strategically placed bunkers, especially around the greens. The par-3 14th, with its demanding carry over water, is a real test, but the wide fairways on the front nine offer a forgiving start for higher handicappers. It's a course that rewards smart play over brute strength.

When is the best time of year to experience Ivy Hills Country Club?

We firmly believe late spring, specifically May and early June, offers the ideal conditions at Ivy Hills. The course is lush, the greens are fast, and the weather is typically perfect for a full round without the intense summer heat. You'll avoid the peak crowds of mid-summer and enjoy pristine conditions.

What's the typical pace of play at Ivy Hills, and what other amenities should I plan to enjoy?

You can generally expect a comfortable pace of play, usually around four hours, thanks to their efficient tee time management and member etiquette. After your round, definitely unwind at The Oak Room-their signature restaurant offers fantastic views of the 18th green and a surprisingly excellent craft cocktail menu. It's the perfect spot to recap your birdies.

What should I expect regarding the cost to play Ivy Hills, and is it worth it?

Playing Ivy Hills as a guest typically means a premium green fee, often in the $150-$200 range, plus caddie or cart fees. We consider it a worthwhile investment for the immaculate course conditions, top-tier service, and the overall exclusive experience you receive. It's not an everyday round, but it's certainly a memorable one.
