What Lambton Golf & Country Club - Toronto does

Lambton Golf & Country Club, legally The Lambton Golf and Country Club Limited, is a private member-owned golf and country club incorporated in 1902 and located at 100 Scarlett Road in Toronto, Ontario. The club operates 27 holes of golf split between a Rees Jones-designed 18-hole Championship Course (up to 7,100 yards, five tee decks) and a 9-hole Valley Course, complemented by five year-round Har-Tru clay tennis courts, a TrackMan-equipped indoor golf academy, a fitness and wellness program, and multiple F&B outlets (Grill Room, Lyon Lounge, seasonal patio) within a modern clubhouse. Members are served via three subscription tiers — Golf, Tennis, and Social — with ancillary revenue generated through event hosting (Heritage Room, Lambton A/B, Trophy Room), corporate and private bookings, daily-fee guest green fees, a golf professional shop, and food and beverage. The club sells memberships through a dedicated Membership Administrator and a member-referral channel rather than self-serve or online purchase, and operates year-round programming including junior camps (ages 3–17), leagues, tournaments, and an extensive social calendar. Lambton holds current Distinguished Clubs network recognition, has hosted four Canadian Opens, and is the home club of 1904 Olympic gold medalist George S. Lyon, anchoring its brand as one of Canada's most established private clubs.
