About

Our course is spacious with large greens that make up over four acres in total area. The course is a favorite for local golfers who feel challenged by the design, but not overwhelmed by too severe a layout. Members never tire of playing Cedarbrook because of its incredible beauty and serene setting. Please view our golf course tour (see sidebar).

Cedarbrook has a halfway house that has restrooms for men and women, as well as a full refreshment area. There is seating inside the air-conditioned building, as well as seating immediately outside the building.

We have a fully stocked golf shop to outfit your golfing needs and our golf professional is on staff with instruction to help you to improve your game.

Today’s Cedarbrook Country Club is several generations removed from Stenton Country Club which was founded in 1909 and was located near Stenton Avenue and Washington Lane in the Chestnut Hill section of Philadelphia. In 1919, a farm was purchased known as the Cedarbrook Farm bordered by Cheltenham Avenue, Easton Road and Limekiln Pike and turned into a golf course by famed architect A.W. Tillinghast and later redesigned by Donald Ross. 

With those design principles in mind a new, larger tract of land was sought for a permanent home. In 1961, 210 contiguous acres of rolling, open space and woodlands was purchased in Blue Bell characterized by the Wissahickon Creek running through its middle. This was the ideal location for an unusually beautiful golf course. Renowned Massachusetts golf course architect William F. Mitchell was hired to design the course using the principles of Tillinghast and Ross, which we know today as Cedarbrook Country Club in Blue Bell, PA.

Today Cedarbrook is a family-oriented country club with a championship golf course measuring over 7,000 yards featuring four sets of tees, thirteen bridges spanning the Wissahickon Creek, lakes, ponds, two large practice areas, expansive greens and bunkers, and abundant wildlife. There is an Olympic size pool, children’s pool, snack bar, six tennis courts all supported by vibrant swimming, tennis, and golf programs for adults and their families to complete the ideal family experience.
