Plantation Golf Club

Detailed description of Plantation Golf Club

Plantation Golf Club is a Private, 18 hole golf course located in Boise, Idaho.

Plantation initially opened as a six-hole course on July 18, 1917. Then known as the Boise Country Club, it opened five years after the state’s oldest golf course, the Hayden Lake Country Club in North Idaho. It was later expanded to 18 holes. The Plantation course was designed by H. Chandler Egan, who won a team gold medal and a silver individual medal at the 1904 Olympics in St. Louis and was a member of the Pacific Northwest Golf Hall of Fame. Egan designed a number of courses in Oregon and Washington.

Plantation Country Club's traditional golf course features wide fairways lined with 80-year-old cottonwood and spruce trees. The Boise River runs alongside the course providing a beautiful setting.
