Ames Golf & Country Club is a private 18-hole club in Ames, Iowa. Although the organisation was founded in 1911 and originally operated a nine-hole course south of Ames, its present course occupies land acquired north of the city in 1971.

The current course plays to 6,675 yards from the Black tees at par 71, with a course rating of 72.2 and slope of 123. Blue and Gold men's tees provide shorter par-71 options, while the Red women's layout is par 73. The club states that the golf course occupies roughly 114 acres within a 164-acre property.

Ames Golf & Country Club was formed in 1911 around a nine-hole course south of Ames. By the early 1970s the club had decided to establish a new facility. Land north of Ames was purchased in 1971 and Donald Sechrest was commissioned to design an 18-hole course there.
The present facility formally opened on Labor Day in 1974. The new property comprised 164 acres, with roughly 114 acres devoted to golf. The club later undertook a major renovation completed in 2018, updating the property and its supporting amenities while retaining the Sechrest routing.
Ames Golf & Country Club remains a private member club with an 18-hole course, practice facilities, golf shop, simulator, pool, racquet sports and clubhouse dining.
