RHODE ISLAND COUNTRY CLUB
🇺🇸 Barrington, RI, USA
Designed by Donald Ross

Rhode Island Country Club, a stalwart of Barrington, holds a revered place in New England golf, its narrative woven into the very fabric of the state's sporting history. The course presents an engaging challenge, where strategic play trumps raw power.
Designed in the early Golden Age, the course exhibits classic architectural touches while navigating undulating terrain that slopes gently towards Narragansett Bay. Notable for its strategic bunkering and closely mown approaches, Rhode Island Country Club presents a subtle test, favoring players who can shape shots and think their way around the course. The wind, an ever-present factor blowing in off the bay, demands constant calculation. Its narrow fairways and strategically placed bunkers, and relatively short distance, put a premium on accuracy and course management.
The club is home to a membership known for its deep local roots and passion for the game. Social events are frequent and well-attended, fostering a strong sense of community.
Reviews
Known for the holes/driving range on the water that you see when you pull in but the inland holes are better IMO. Great track
