Description
Welcome to Claremont Country Club, located in the Rockridge neighborhood of Oakland adjacent to the Oakland Hills and the city of Piedmont. Claremont is one of the pre-eminent private clubs in the Bay Area. The 125+ year-old club includes: an 18-hole golf course redesigned in 1926 by noted course architect Alister MacKenzie, a Racquets Sports Facility with six tennis courts and 4 pickleball courts, an Aquatic Facility with two outdoor pools and a Fitness Facility with a cardio room, weight room, studio for stretching and classes and an outdoor Fitness Patio. Members also enjoy dining and social events in a beautiful Tudor-style clubhouse built in 1929 and renovated over the years. Claremont provides a sanctuary for its members to escape from the hustle and bustle of day-to-day life and to enjoy all the amenities of a first-class club. Claremont is also a beautiful setting for private events.
MacKenzie’s “Little Jewel” in Oakland…
In January 1937, Claremont hosted the Oakland Open. Samuel Jackson Snead, a 24-year-old unknown southerner at the time, won his first professional tournament at the Oakland Open. Sometime after his win, Snead said,
“I remember a little jewel of a course out West in Oakland named Claremont.”
Claremont Country Club is one of 15 clubs in The Alister MacKenzie Society with certified MacKenzie course designs.
