Inwood Country Club, Private country club and golf course in Long Island, United States.
Inwood Country Club is a private golf and leisure club on the South Shore of Long Island, New York, with a full golf course, tennis courts, and direct access to the Atlantic coast. The grounds sit on a narrow strip of land between the water and the surrounding residential area, giving the property a coastal feel throughout.
The club was founded in the early 1900s and quickly gained recognition after hosting two major professional golf tournaments in the 1920s. Those events drew national attention to the course and shaped its reputation for decades afterward.
The club sits right on the Atlantic shoreline, and members can walk from the fairways to a private beach area after a round. This mix of golf and coastal access shapes how the place feels and how people spend their time there.
The club is located in Atlantic Beach, close to JFK airport, and is most easily reached by car. Access is reserved for members and their guests, so any visit requires a prior invitation or arrangement through a member.
The course includes a sequence of three consecutive par-5 holes, which is rarely seen on any golf course in the country. This stretch makes the back nine feel noticeably different from the rest of the round, both in pace and in the physical effort required.
