History

      Denton Country Club was chartered in 1922 as a men’s golf club, occupying approximately 125 acres in Denton County.  It was originally a 9-hole course comprised of sand greens.  The club was closed during the Great Depression of the 1930’s.  In 1934, the Club was re-chartered and re-opened as the New Denton Country Club.  During World War II, the Club was closed again and the land was leased to area ranchers for cattle grazing.  In 1950, Denton Country Club reopened again as a sand layout.  In 1963, the clubhouse burned and a new one was built the following year.  An additional 90-acre tract was purchased in 1970 allowing for expansion to 18 holes.  Since then, the club has added four tennis courts, a member’s swimming pool and a children’s wading pool.  Denton Country Club members made a major commitment in 1986 and built a 20,000 square foot Clubhouse.  The Club made major improvements to the golf course with the addition of Bent Grass greens, 419 Bermuda fairways and other beautification projects.
