Unique Club/Facility Details
Mountain Brook Club is a private, member-owned club. The Club sits on one hundred and eighty rolling acres in the southern portion of Shades Mountain, watered by a winding brook, and studded with natural hazards which were selected in 1929 by the organizational committee of the Mountain Brook County Club as the setting for the clubhouse and golf course which now constitutes the properties of the Club. The clubhouse was built and opened for its members in 1929. The vision was to be a serviceable club, which combines the convenience and service of an up-to-date club with the informality and charm of a country residence. Perhaps the most famous part of our reputation is the social activities, including excellent food and beverages for the member’s enjoyment. Entertaining at the Club is a way of life for our members.
