OUR STORY

Opened in 1995, Hartefeld National brought Tom Fazio's vision for championship golf to southern Chester County. Home to PGA Tour and PGA Tour Champions events, the Club has grown beyond the fairways to include dining, social events, and experiences that bring Members together throughout the year. It’s that sense of continuity that defines Hartefeld National. Many members are now second-generation, and the Club has become a place where families stay to build lasting connections, welcomed by a team who knows them by name.
