ClubCorp adds to Ohio portfolio

Company acquires P.B. Dye-designed Heritage Golf Club.


ClubCorp has announced the acquisition of Heritage Golf Club, a private country club in Hilliard, Ohio, just west of Columbus. ClubCorp plans to spend more than $1 million on improvements to the clubhouse, golf course and practice facilities.

“We are very excited about the addition of Heritage Golf Club – and the Columbus market – to the ClubCorp Network,” said Mark Burnett, ClubCorp president and COO. “The club, one of the foremost in the area and featuring an outstanding P.B. Dye-designed golf course, fits our portfolio and is a perfect complement to our other clubs in the Ohio market.”

ClubCorp clubs in Ohio include Firestone Country Club and Silver Lake Country Club in Akron, Quail Hollow Country Club and The Club at Key Center in Cleveland, and Dayton Racquet Club. Having already acquired several clubs in 2016, Heritage Golf Club further increases the company’s portfolio of owned and operated clubs, which stands at over 200 clubs in 26 states, the District of Columbia, Mexico and China.

“The value of ClubCorp’s Network, ClubCorp’s knowledge of the industry and their commitment to excellence and to capital improvements can only improve upon Heritage’s club traditions,” said Dan O’Brien, developer of Heritage Golf Club and co-owner for more than 20 years. “ClubCorp is the ideal fit for the members, employees and the community.”

 Heritage Golf Club features an 18-hole P.B. Dye-designed golf course – shaped in the famous Dye tradition of illusion and deception with undulating greens, signature railroad ties and numerous sparkling.
