Ansley Golf Club

What Ansley Golf Club does

Ansley Golf Club is a privately held, member-owned, non-profit private country club founded in 1910 in Atlanta, Georgia, and recognized as a 5 Star Platinum Club of America. It operates two locations: a 9-hole Midtown course in the Ansley Park neighborhood of Atlanta (originally designed by Stewart Maiden in 1912) and an 18-hole championship course at Settindown Creek in Roswell, Georgia (designed by Bob Cupp, acquired in 1999), totaling 27 holes of golf across the Atlanta metropolitan area.

The club delivers a full-service family-oriented private club experience beyond golf, including eight Har-tru clay tennis courts plus three pickleball courts, a Junior Olympic-size swimming facility with the championship-winning Ansley Sharks swim team, a fitness and wellness center with personal training, fine and casual dining, banquet and catering operations with capacity for up to 400 guests, and year-round youth programming. Operationally it is a traditional service business powered by Jonas Club Software for member management, with no proprietary technology platform or AI components described.

The business model is a closed, invitation-only membership club: prospective members must be nominated by five sponsoring current members, reviewed by the Membership Committee, and approved by the Board of Directors. Revenue is generated through initiation fees, recurring annual membership dues, dining and F&B spend, banquet and event hosting, and youth program participation. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; the Platinum Club designation and Atlanta-Buckhead positioning place Ansley among the upper tier of U.S. private clubs, where initiation fees in comparable properties typically range from $50,000 to $200,000.

Direct peers

• Atlanta Athletic Club: Atlanta's most prominent private country club, also multi-amenity (golf, tennis, dining, fitness) and a major championship host (2011 PGA Championship).

Broad incumbents
