Brunswick Country Club dates back to its original charter in 1920. The club moved to its current location in 1936 and began
operation as a nine-hole facility with sand greens. In 1938, the club hired Donald Ross to design the back nine.
Later that year, Ross returned for a site visit and was pleased with the work being done. It was during this visit
that Ross provided drawings to redesign the existing front nine greens. On Labor Day 1939, all eighteen holes were officially opened for play.

Over the next 70 years, the golf course gradually changed due to agronomic and maintenance practices, however, the original design
remained basically untouched - until now.
In November 2006, the club began the restoration of its 1938 Donald Ross designed golf course.
The twelve month venture was very much like an archeological project - uncovering a buried treasure - a true Donald Ross gem.
What made this project so unique and special was the opportunity to recreate a golf
course according to the design plans of one of history's greatest course architects. The golf course reopened for play in November 2007.
