Overview

Club History

Eagles Mere Golf Club was established on September 19, 1911. The club grounds and farmhouse were purchased from the Avery family which is still our existing clubhouse today. Recently a multimillion-dollar remodel was completed, adding more outdoor dining with panoramic views of the Endless Mountains. In 1913 the club finished the first six holes of the golf course and opened them for play. These six holes are now 1-5 and 18. Then in 1915 a young Merion Golf Club superintendent, William Flynn, was hired to expand the golf course. By 1923 a full 18-hole golf course was completed and open for play. William Flynn is a legendary golf course architect. Flynn played major roles in the design of Shinnecock Hills, The Country Club at Brookline, and many more.
