Jamestown Golf Course – 9 Holes (Public Invited)
Jamestown Golf Course was designed and built in 1895. Many claim that it is one of the oldest public courses in the country.
QUICK HISTORY: Recreational activities became important in the early twentieth century. A nine-hole golf course had been established in a cow pasture near the Dumplings in July, 1895, and was in use until about October, 1904. Known as Conanicut Golf Club, it was one of the first in New England (the Newport Country Club was started in 1890). In 1901 a new clubhouse was erected on the south side of the course and links were laid out on the Littlefield-Clarke farm, today’s Jamestown Country Club. The clubhouse was moved in 1951 to its present location on Conanicus Avenue. The course contains 74.36 acres, with various environmentally sensitive land management areas.
