Marion Country Club first opened for play in 1964. The course was designed by Carter Golf.
The Golf Course at Marion Country Club was built on semi-rolling hills. Water hazards come into play on five holes. Woods completely surround the course, and there is only one dogleg fairway that plays downhill all the way to the green. Other than this one hole, the fairways play straightaway. The most difficult hole is #2, a 549-yard, par 5, requiring shots down a fairway that is guarded from tee to green on the right side by out-of-bounds stakes. There are additional tees that can be used when playing a double loop eighteen hole round.
Marion Country Club plays to a maximum 9-hole distance of 3,131 yards and a 9-hole par of 36.
