Sands Point Golf Club

What Sands Point Golf Club does

Sands Point Golf Club, Inc. is a private, member-owned golf and skeet club domiciled in New York and operating from a single 125-acre estate at 130 Middle Neck Road, Sands Point, New York. The club's core assets are an 18-hole, 6,800-yard, par-72 championship course originally laid out by A.W. Tillinghast and opened on July 21, 1928, a skeet shooting facility known as 'Fort Jackson' equipped with automatic target throwers and a dedicated lodge, a practice range, and a clubhouse containing dining rooms, locker rooms, a pro shop, and an outdoor patio. Water infrastructure includes a two-acre, four-million-gallon irrigation reservoir behind the practice range.

The club is governed by a member-elected board, with membership conveyed via non-negotiable, non-transferable stock certificates in the Sands Point Golf Club, capping the membership near the original 125-member ceiling set in 1927. Members historically include entrepreneurs, lawyers, doctors, bankers, brokers, and corporate executives. Revenue is generated through annual dues, initiation/transfer fees, food and beverage operations under long-tenured Executive Chef Domagoj Bakija, and ancillary services (pro shop, guest fees), and the club operates a basic technology footprint limited to a website (sandspointgc.org) and a Clubhouse Online member portal.

The company has no disclosed revenue, no active fundraising, no subsidiaries, and no M&A history; strategic activity since 2004 is limited to incremental facility maintenance and scholarship programs including the Albert Cohen Scholarship Fund (created 1988, renamed 2002) and a partnership with the Long Island Caddie Scholarship Fund.
