Golf at Darlington Country Club

Welcome to Darlington Country Club, where we celebrate the sport and the beauty of our challenging 18-hole golf course. Our course, set along the picturesque Black Creek, offers a challenging game for both seasoned players and beginners alike. Non-members are welcome!

We invite you to come and play on our course and experience the thrill of the game with us. Don't forget to stop by The Black Creek Grill and Bar, and enjoy your favorite drink at The Red Bar or Michael’s Porch after your round.

Returning to Our Roots: Redesign of Holes 15, 16, and 17

We’re excited to share the transformation of holes 15, 16, and 17. This redesign, led by renowned golf architect Richard Mandell (Richard Mandell Golf Architecture) marks a big step in our effort to bring the course back to its 1926 origins. By capitalizing on Darlington Country Club's sandy soils, we’re transitioning from a wall-to-wall grass and rough layout to one that embraces its natural features and highlights the course's historical charm.
