  • Old Chatham Golf Club

    Course Type: Private

    Design Role: New Design 2001, Updated 2022

    Co-Designer(s): Greg Muirhead

    Client Course Description

    Old Chatham is a golf club, not a country club. Here golf is played on an 18-hole championship course set in 400 acres of protected woodlands – a rare sanctuary forever free of real estate development. Native forest separates the fairways, giving each group the feeling that it has the course all to itself. The golf course and grounds are maintained with an exceptional attention to detail and a seamless combination of both modern and traditional maintenance practices, giving one the sense that the golf course at Old Chatham has been quietly in existence for many years.

    Designer Notes

    This course was carefully routed across a site that is beautiful, wooded, and rolling - in other words, perfect for golf. The resulting course is reminiscent of the days when tee and green sites were natural and little earth was moved.

    In 2021, the club requested plans for select improvements to the course.
