About

Our Story

Nestled in North Raleigh’s Wakefield Plantation community, our private club is a haven for golf and active family lifestyles beyond the game itself. Designed by PGA Tour veteran Hale Irwin, the property offers 18-hole and 9-hole courses to challenge yourself or enjoy a leisurely round with friends. Full-service club amenities include swimming pools, tennis courts, a fitness center, Kids Club rooms, fine dining and event spaces.

The epicenter of activity at Wakefield Plantation is its modern 38,000 square foot clubhouse. Trading stories over a meal with friends or sharing a laugh with family, our members and their guests delight in the welcoming atmosphere of the recently renovated neocolonial building. Choose to spend your time enjoying cocktails in the Tavern, or sharing a family dinner in the Plantation Room, gathering around the fire in The Reserve or hosting a holiday party in the Williamsburg Ballroom. For all the ways you relax and have fun, The Country Club at Wakefield Plantation's clubhouse suits the occasion.

The Country Club at Wakefield Plantation was also the previous host of the REX Hospital Open, a Korn Ferry Tour event which occurs each spring.
