Background
Idle Hour Country Club has deep roots in Macon’s history. Its origins trace to the Log Cabin Club, organized in 1890, which was later sold in 1912. Members then purchased a farm outside Macon known as Idle Hours and established the Idle Hour Country Club, building its golf course in the early twentieth century. The club has endured through war, the Great Depression, and changing times, growing into a full-service private club. Today, Idle Hour offers members golf, swimming, tennis, dining, and a gracious setting for celebrations on its beautiful grounds.
