Bentwinds Country Club
About Bentwinds Country Club
Bentwinds Country Club was developed more than 45 years ago on 350 acres in southern Wake County, near Fuquay-Varina, North Carolina. Its founding members set out to build not only a golf course but a setting for family-oriented social and recreational life as well.
The club is private and member-owned, operating with a deliberately limited membership cap to keep access open for its members. The 18-hole course is joined by a full-service restaurant, a schedule of family-friendly events, and swimming and tennis facilities that have been renovated in recent years.
