Woodland Hills Country Club

What Woodland Hills Country Club does

Woodland Hills Country Club is a private membership country club established in 1925, operating from a single campus at 21150 Dumetz Road in Woodland Hills, California, in the San Fernando Valley. The core offering is an 18-hole walkable golf course designed by William Bell Sr., featuring six tee options ranging from approximately 4,500 to 6,400 yards and a four-hour pace-of-play expectation, complemented by two TrackMan simulator bays installed in 2020 and a short-game practice area. The club bundles golf with in-house dining led by Executive Chef Alfie Salvatierra, fitness and wellness classes, member social events, and seven connected indoor and outdoor event venues totaling over 20,000 square feet, used for weddings, Bar/Bat Mitzvahs, corporate events, charity fundraisers, and private social gatherings.

The business model combines recurring subscription revenue from four membership tiers (Premier Full Golf, Premier Limited Golf, Executive Full Golf, and Lifestyle Social) with usage-based revenue from guest green fees, cart rentals, golf lessons by PGA professionals, TrackMan simulator access, and transaction-based food and beverage service. Membership pricing is not publicly disclosed and is delivered after an inquiry-driven sales process managed by Membership Director Gregg Matalas, including a scheduled club tour. Event hosting is a distinct revenue stream operated as an in-house professional service under Director of Events Rebecca Bauman (Director since 2007), supported by listed presence on wedding and event directories including theKnot.com, HereComesTheGuide.com, MitzvahWire.com, and WeddingWire.com.

The club serves the local Woodland Hills and San Fernando Valley community, with all memberships structured as family memberships covering spouse/partner and children under 26. Its stated positioning is an approachable, lived-in "everyday club" with uncongested course access and approachable pricing relative to larger Los Angeles clubs. Operational scale is modest, with 28 employees, and revenue is not publicly disclosed. The club has no identified parent company, no disclosed external investors, and operates as an independent private membership organization.
