Mountain Brook Club in 1931

The Mountain Brook Club is a private country club founded in 1929.

The clubhouse, designed by Aymar Embury II of New York, New York with landscaping by William Kessler, was built in a Colonial Revival style with a pale-green paint finish and slate roofing. The ballroom is adorned with murals painted by Anna Girault Farrar Goldsborough (a great grand-niece of Jefferson Davis).

The club's 18-hole Bermuda grass golf course was designed by Donald J. Ross and Associates of Pinehurst, North Carolina. It measures 6,473 yards from the longest tees and plays to a 71 par.
