Our Story
February 7, 1914: The Birth of Jackson Country Club
In the annals of Tennessee history, a pivotal moment occurred on February 7, 1914, when five visionary Jackson businessmen came together to establish the Jackson Country Club. Their noble mission was clear - to foster social pleasure, provide entertainment, and cultivate the enjoyment of life for its members. Moreover, the club set out to encourage and promote athletic sports of all kinds, shaping itself into a hub of vibrant community activity.
From Prince Street to a Timeless Home
The club's humble origins saw its first 9 holes situated at the top of Prince Street. However, the winds of change blew in the early part of 1929, guiding the club to its current and enduring location. Since then, Jackson Country Club has etched its name in Tennessee's history, becoming synonymous with the best golf the state has to offer. The move also marked the club's evolution into a central gathering place for the community, a venue for not only sports but also as a hub for dining and social activities.
