About the Course: Oswego Country Club is among the Nation's oldest golf clubs, having been established in 1897. It currently sits on property that was previously known as the Murray and Littlefield farm.  The original course consisted of only six holes and the clubhouse was located near what is now known as the fourth hole.  Today's clubhouse was opened in 1903.  In 1915, world-renowned golf course architect A.W. Tillinghast redesigned and expanded the original course into what is now known as the Front Nine.
