Club History: Walnut Creek Country Club originated as Farmington Country Club in 1955 at Haggerty and Twelve Mile Roads. Farmington Country Club hosted the Michigan PGA championship in 1961 and the Michigan Open in 1961 and 1962. In 1982, members voted to change the name of the Club to Farmington Hills Country Club. In 1987, the club purchased a 27 hole course named Godwin Glen and sold the original property of Farmington Hills Country Club off in parcels. Later that year the club changed its name to Walnut Creek Country Club, again by a vote of the membership. Walnut Creek Country Club retained world-renowned golf course architect, Arthur Hills, to design and renovate the existing course. In 2010, WCCC built a large bentgrass short-game practice area including 2 chipping greens, practice bunkers, and a putting green. In 2012 the club redesigned and grew in holes 8 and 9 south using T1 bent for greens and Princeville bent for fairways and tees. In 2021 the club updated the irrigation system on the South and West nines to a two wire Rainbird IC system. In 2021 the club also completed a large renovation of the West course using Frontier Golf as the contractor. Plans for a north course renovation are already underway which will begin in August, 2023. WCCC is constantly improving its facilities offering unique experiences to all those involved.
