The Bellows Falls Country Club is a nine-hole golf course that dates back to 1923. We have a clubhouse that is relaxing and includes a bar, restaurant, and pro-shop. We also have a screened porch off the clubhouse where members and guests socialize and watch play on the first, second, and ninth holes. We boast about a friendly membership and staff, and we provide a golf environment for players of all abilities. We believe we have an above average nine-hole golf course that offers numerous challenges to all golfers.
