Clinton Country Club
Frequently Asked Questions
What's the real challenge at Clinton Country Club, beyond just hitting it straight?
You'll quickly discover the real test here lies in the subtle breaks on the greens, especially on the back nine-they're faster than they look. Don't let the relatively open fairways fool you-your short game needs to be sharp to score well.
When is the ideal time of year to experience Clinton Country Club at its best?
We always recommend late spring or early fall; the course is in pristine condition, and the cooler air makes for a much more enjoyable walk. Avoid mid-summer if you can, as the humidity can be a real drain on your energy.
Is Clinton Country Club open to the public, and what should I expect for green fees?
Yes, they do offer limited public play, typically on weekdays or after 2 PM on weekends, but always call ahead for a tee time. Expect green fees to be in the $75-100 range, which is fair for the quality of maintenance you'll experience.
What's the overall atmosphere like at Clinton Country Club, and what should I check out besides the course?
It's a classic, understated country club vibe-friendly and welcoming without being stuffy. After your round, grab a drink at the 19th Hole; their patio overlooks the 18th green and is perfect for unwinding.
What's one unique tip for playing Clinton Country Club that only a local would know?
Pay close attention to the prevailing wind on the par-3 7th hole-it often plays a club longer than it looks, especially if you're aiming for the back pin. Don't be afraid to take an extra club and trust it.
