IMPORTANT UPDATE EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY (April 3, 2020)
Per Rhode Island Governor, Gina Raimondo, orders and mandates that Montaup Country Club will stay open to members who are Rhode Island residents ONLY.
Per the Rhode Island Health Department Director, Dr. Nicole Alexander-Scott, we will ask all members to wear a mask, maintain 6 ft separation, and no more than 5 people gathering.
This decision, made unanimously by the Board of Governors, and officers, is the hardest decision that has or will have been made in Montaup’s history. The Pro shop will be checking ID’s from everyone to ensure only Rhode Island residents are playing. Our attorney, Ken Trembley, and the governor’s office agree that Montaup is liable and accountable to ensure the Governor’s mandates are followed. Our hands are tied as the governing body, this is not our decision, but one that was made by the State.
Thank you very much. Be safe and stay healthy.

Montaup Country Club is open year round for the die-hard golf enthusiast and is located in Portsmouth, RI. Close to historic Newport, Montaup Country Club is an 18 hole semi-private course. Our signature hole, the Par 5 16th overlooks scenic Mt. Hope Bay and Bridge. A fairly open, flat course with tricky winds results in a good test of shot-making ability. The first three holes are considered by some, the toughest starting holes in Rhode Island. The first hole has water in front and to the right of the green, with out-of-bounds guarding the left side. Please consider Montaup for your next golf experience or group outing! |
