Thinking About Living in Doylestown Country Club?
Get connected with a local real-estate specialist who understands Doylestown Country Club and the surrounding Lehigh Valley & Bucks County golf market.
Founded in 1916, Doylestown Country Club is the oldest private club in Bucks County, built around a William S. Flynn-designed 18-hole course in Doylestown -- the county seat and one of its most walkable, historic, and desirable residential towns. Membership requires sponsorship by two current active members at the time of application, a $250 non-refundable application fee, and purchase of a Redeemable Certificate of Membership, whose price the club itself has publicly reduced in recent years from $17,000 to $5,000 to broaden the membership base.
Golf & Course
The 18-hole course was designed by William S. Flynn, one of the golden-age architects also credited with work at Lehigh Country Club.
Membership & Access
Does buying a home here include club membership?
Prospective members must secure two active-member sponsors, pay a non-refundable $250 application fee, and purchase a Redeemable Certificate of Membership (currently $5,000 per the club's own site). This is a genuine sponsorship-gated private club, not open enrollment, and is entirely independent of any Doylestown real estate purchase.
Living in Doylestown Country Club
No bundled residential development was found; the club sits within Doylestown's broader, already-desirable historic borough and surrounding township.
Lifestyle & Amenities
Members have access to the pool, cabana, and clubhouse dining alongside golf.
Location & Surrounding Area
Doylestown is Bucks County's seat and a historic, walkable town center; the club is a short drive from Lookaway Golf Club in neighboring Buckingham.
