Trenton Country Club is a Jimmy Norton designed 18-hole facility located in West Trenton, New Jersey. The club was founded in 1897 and went through a course redesign during the 1920’s by famed architect A.W. Tillinghast. Recently, we have partnered with golf course architect, Jim Ryan, on modernizing our master plan for the golf course and practice areas. This modern plan uses 1920’s aerials to capture the old Victorian architecture as well as incorporating modern flare into the design.
