Thinking About Living in Philadelphia Cricket Club?
Get connected with a local real-estate specialist who understands Philadelphia Cricket Club and the surrounding Philadelphia Main Line & Suburbs golf market.
Philadelphia Cricket Club, founded in 1854, is the oldest country club in the United States and one of four founding members of the Golf Association of Philadelphia. It operates across two campuses -- the St. Martins Campus in Philadelphia's Chestnut Hill neighborhood (with a 9-hole course dating to 1895 that hosted the 1907 and 1910 U.S. Opens, plus extensive tennis, squash, and swimming facilities) and a larger Flourtown campus in Montgomery County housing two 18-hole courses: Wissahickon, A.W. Tillinghast's 1922 design dedicated to his memory, and Militia Hill, a modern Michael Hurdzan/Dana Fry design that opened in 2002 -- making Philadelphia Cricket Club the only club in the country confirmed to have opened a golf course in each of the last three centuries. It remains private and multi-sport, with cricket, golf, squash, tennis, swimming, and paddle/pickleball all active.
Location & Surrounding Area
The Flourtown campus sits in Montgomery County just north of the Philadelphia city line; the St. Martins campus sits within Philadelphia's Chestnut Hill neighborhood, both in a historic, high-value residential corridor along the Wissahickon Valley.
