For the most part of the 1900's this area, in which Swansea Country Club now sits, served as a private hunting and fishing preserve for Mr. Isaac Merriman of Fall River, Massachusetts.  Mr. Merriman, a prominent textile merchant, built a levy and damn along the Palmer River creating a beautiful 50-acre freshwater pond.

In the early 1960's Mr. Nelson Doyle purchased the property and by 1963, with the aid of Geoffrey Cornish, the magnificent course of Swansea Country Club was born.  For 25 years the course was owned by the Doyle family and managed by Sheila and Paul Doyle.  In the late 80's the property was sold to an investment group with plans to redesign the land into a residential area.  But with the real estate market in a decline during the late 80's and early 90's their concept was never realized.
 

In 1992, another Doyle family purchased the property and set out to renovate the course and bring modern maintenances to this classic golfing gem.  Much has been done to this beautiful course and with every year comes new improvements to the course including their most recent addition: a massive drainage system overhaul resulting in phenomenal playing conditions year round.

An excellent golf experience is waiting for you at Swansea.
