Wee Burn Country Club

Wee Burn Country Club is one of the older courses in the state. Originally built in 1896 by George Strath (designer of St. Andews), it featured only 6 holes. Not too long after another 3 holes were added to the course. By 1923 the club decided they needed to expand the course to 18 holes, the only problem being that they had lacked the room. So they decided to purchase a nearby plot of land and recreate the original 9 holes. They then added another 9 holes in addition. The new course was so well designed that it has been featured in 3 USGA Women's Amateur Championships , in 1939, 1958, and 1970. In recent years significant modifications have been made with over 3,000 yards of stream and lake banks being renovated. It is said that there are few opportunities for scoring, and the couple they have still require skillful execution.
