About Village Club of Sands Point

The club sits within the Village of Sands Point on Long Island's Gold Coast, a short drive from the Long Island Expressway and about forty minutes by train from Manhattan. Its grounds include a former Guggenheim estate mansion, built in 1916 in an Italian Renaissance style, with lawns, gardens, and views over Long Island Sound. The village acquired the estate in 1994, and the property previously operated as the IBM Country Club. Amenities advertised on the club's site include a championship golf course designed by Tom Doak, a racquet area, a pool, and a dining room in the mansion. Membership is required, and the club describes itself as exclusive yet open to all.
