Frequently Asked Questions

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

Getting on Belmont as a non-member usually requires an invitation from a current member, which is fairly standard for a private club of this caliber. We've found that some private clubs also offer limited reciprocal play arrangements with other private courses, so it's worth checking with your home club's pro shop if you're a member elsewhere. Don't expect to just walk up and book a tee time; planning ahead with a member connection is your best bet.

What's the signature challenge or most memorable hole at Belmont Country Club?

You absolutely have to brace yourself for the par-3 14th at Belmont- it's a real beauty and a beast. It plays downhill to a green guarded by water on the left and a deep bunker on the right, demanding a precise shot to avoid a big number. We always recommend taking an extra club and aiming for the heart of the green; don't get greedy trying to attack the pin.

When is the best time of year to play Belmont Country Club for ideal conditions?

We highly recommend aiming for late spring or early fall to experience Belmont at its absolute best. The turf is lush, the weather is typically perfect for golf- not too hot, not too cold- and you'll avoid the peak summer humidity that can make some rounds less enjoyable. Plus, the fall foliage around the course adds a stunning backdrop to your game.

What's the typical pace of play and how busy does Belmont Country Club get?

Belmont generally maintains an excellent pace of play, especially on weekdays, which is a huge plus. You can usually expect a round to take around four hours, maybe a little more on busy weekend mornings. We always suggest booking an early morning tee time if you're looking for the quickest round and fewer distractions.

What should I expect from the clubhouse and amenities at Belmont Country Club after my round?

The clubhouse at Belmont is a classic- understated elegance with all the comforts you'd want after a challenging round. We always make a point to grab a drink and a bite at the Grill Room; their post-round sandwiches are fantastic and the service is always top-notch. It's the perfect spot to relax, recount your birdies (and bogeys), and soak in the club's history.
