The Country Club of Montreal is a private 18-hole golf course located in Saint-Lambert, Quebec, Canada. Originally dedicated to polo, the club's vocation changed to golf on November 17, 1910, making it the second oldest golf course in Greater Montreal.[1] Originally a 9-hole golf course, 9 more holes were added in subsequent years, and in 1974, the course was redesigned and modernized by Roy Dye of Pete Dye and Associates.[2]

The course is 6,725 yards for a par of 72, and features a course rating of 72.8 and a slope rating of 135.[3]

The Country Club was involved in the development of land to its west, along with Preville Ltd. In 1948 they successfully petitioned the Government of Quebec to have Préville incorporated as a town. [4]
