Thinking About Living in Country Club of Newberry?
Get connected with a local real-estate specialist who understands Country Club of Newberry and the surrounding Newberry golf market.
Country Club of Newberry, founded in 1922, is a semi-private club in Newberry, seat of Newberry County, offering golf, swimming (via a historic pond fed by more than 75 springs behind the clubhouse), and tennis alongside its social club function. Its 18-hole, par-72 course was designed by Bill Brazell -- the original nine opened in 1922 with sand greens used until 1949, and the back nine was completed in 1976. Membership requires sponsorship by a current member or introduction to the club's Membership Committee, a genuine access barrier, though non-members can also play the course on a daily green-fee basis (~$55) per third-party tee-time listings.
Golf & Course
The 18-hole, par-72 course was designed by Bill Brazell, playing to roughly 6,528-6,530 yards with a slope of 135. The original 9-hole course opened in 1922 and used sand greens until 1949; the back nine was completed in 1976.
Membership & Access
Does buying a home here include club membership?
The club is semi-private: its own Membership page states that sponsorship is 'through the nomination of a current Member or introduction to a Member of the Club's Membership Committee,' a genuine gatekeeping mechanism for full membership. Third-party tee-time listings also show a public daily green fee (~$55), so non-members can play on a pay-to-play basis even though membership itself requires sponsorship.
Location & Surrounding Area
Located in Newberry, seat of Newberry County, in South Carolina's Midlands region, roughly 40 minutes northwest of Columbia.
