The Cherry Hills Country Club was founded by a group of members of the Denver Country Club in 1922, just so they can get what they wanted. And what they wanted at the time was a simple golf club, nothing more. And for that, they obtained the services of the famous William S. Flynn, who was among the premier golf architects of the time.
The resulting golf course became an icon in American golf history, as it has hosted 9 USGA tourneys over the years. These include 3 US PGA Championships, with players including such famous names as Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, and Phil Mickelson. Other tourneys include the US Open for 1936,1960, and 1978, the 1993 US Senior Open, the 2005 US Women’s Open, and the 2012 US Amateur. It will host the US Amateur Championship in 2023.
Of course, it didn’t stop at golf after some time passed. The powers that be at Cherry Hills eventually included tennis facilities, which were so good that it hosted the Davis Cup match between the US and Venezuela in 1963.
Aside from the golf course and the tennis courts, there’s an indoor facility for golf practice, so you can improve your games. There are also facilities for dining and swimming.
Of course, it helped that the clubhouse just got renovated at a cost of $50 million. It resulted in a new 2-story facility with 67,000 square feet of space. The new amenities include an indoor golf simulator, along with a complete fitness studio. There are meeting rooms, along with a huge basement with 10,000 square feet of space.
There’s one large room for banquets, as the dining areas have been expanded. On the second floor, there’s also an outdoor patio facing the west.
Membership here can be a rather stringent process, starting with the fact that you can’t just apply. Membership is by invitation only, which means you need to know people who are already current members, before you can get that invitation.
The membership initiation fee is also among the higher fees in the industry, set at $135,000. The minimum monthly dues fee is $1,000.
