HISTORY OF LAKEWOOD

Established in 1921, Lakewood Country Club has long stood as one of Ohio’s premier private clubs, offering exceptional amenities and personalized service to its members. Created to serve the athletic, social, and professional needs of a distinguished membership, the Club continues to honor its storied past while embracing the future.

In 2024, Lakewood completed a historic golf course restoration led by renowned architect Keith Foster. This transformative project preserved the integrity and character of our original A.W. Tillinghast design—the only one of its kind in Ohio—while elevating the course to modern championship standards.

A true full-service, family-focused club, Lakewood features a premier aquatic complex, state-of-the-art fitness center, and outstanding tennis facilities. Members enjoy world-class indoor and outdoor dining, vibrant social and lounge areas, and culinary experiences crafted by our award-winning chef. For over a century, Lakewood has been the setting for weddings, celebrations, and cherished moments—making it more than just a club, but a legacy shared across generations.
