EAST HAMPTON GOLF CLUB
🇺🇸 East Hampton, NY, USA
Designed by Ben Crenshaw


East Hampton Golf Club, a testament to understated exclusivity on Long Island’s East End, offers a traditional golf experience steeped in a quiet, almost defiant, rejection of modern ostentation. Its layout, nestled within the area's characteristic woodlands and rolling terrain, reflects a Golden Age design philosophy that emphasizes strategic play and classic shot-making.
While the original hand of famed architect Tom Bendelow shaped the course, subsequent subtle enhancements by lesser-known but respectful hands have only refined its inherent character. The course favors those who can work the ball, featuring a routing that winds through pockets of dense trees demanding thoughtful club selection rather than brute force off the tee. A premium is placed on accuracy and precise iron play to navigate the undulating greens and tight landing areas.
Though East Hampton has not played host to national championships, its membership, drawn from the upper echelons of New York society and beyond, prize the club for its unpretentious atmosphere and commitment to the game's traditions. The club remains steadfastly dedicated to providing an exclusive and challenging golfing experience for its discerning members.
