Over half a century ago, members of the Canadian Pacific Railway (CFCP) played golf at the Wentworth Golf Club located on the island of Montreal. In 1968, they were located to the west of Île Perrot. The following summer, the first seeds were sown.The well-known architect John Watson designed the course, which was built under the direction of Jack Vincelli, with the supervision of Louis Joyal (CPR). The clubhouse was built by Loren Construction in 1970. The new course will continue to bear the Wentworth name for a few years to come. The site was chosen for its country atmosphere without the noise pollution of road traffic. Narrow fairways, wooded areas and greens well protected by bunkers and ponds define its character and offer golfers of all levels a challenge to take on.The pavilion located at the top of the hill offers the dining room a spectacular view of Lake Saint-Louis and downtown Montreal. In 1974, the club was reconstituted and renamed the Île Perrot Golf Club. Over the years, numerous changes have been made. In 1988, the 10th hole was extended by about thirty yards and a new green was built and protected by two sand ditches on the left. A pond located directly on the side and at the back also borders the exercise green. A pond directly to the side and rear also borders the putting green.
Twenty years later, the pond adjacent to the 4th hole was dug and redesigned. A year later, the exterior of the clubhouse was covered with new brick. In addition, most of the starting tees have been raised and widened. Over the following years, drainage was improved and a new irrigation system was put in place.
In spring 2013, the club was bought by Carbo Investments. The club was renamed Windmill Heights Golf & Country Club. The family business continues to invest and make improvements to the club every year, for the benefit of members and customers.
Pendant de nombreuses années, le Club a été l'un des secrets les mieux gardés de la région. Aujourd'hui, et pour les années à venir, il est sur la voie de devenir l'un des joyaux de la région de Montréal.
