Est. 1897 · William Flynn
Why we love this place
Flynn on bold, rumpled land is a treat, and Huntingdon Valley gives you three nines of it. We admire clubs that honor their architect instead of paving over him. The variety across 27 holes means no two loops feel the same, which is exactly our kind of golf.

About Huntingdon Valley Country Club
Huntingdon Valley Country Club was organized in June 1897 and is recognized as the first club in the Philadelphia area formed exclusively for golf, starting with a nine-hole course at its original Baederwood site. In 1928 the club relocated roughly two miles north to a larger property, where architect William Flynn, working with engineer Howard Toomey, designed a sweeping 27-hole complex; play began that April. Flynn, one of the celebrated figures of golf's Golden Age, routed three interlocking nines across dramatic ground, and the club has long counted his work among the region's finest. The course has hosted significant amateur competition over its history and continues as a private members' club. Today Huntingdon Valley offers 27 holes of championship golf, with ongoing stewardship of Flynn's design a defining priority for the membership.
