Founded in 1894 in Akron, Ohio, Portage Country Club is one of the oldest clubs in America. The Club's founding members were Charles C. Goodrich (the son of Dr. Benjamin F. Goodrich, the founder of B.F. Goodrich Company), Charles G. Raymond (an executive at B.F. Goodrich Company) and Bertram G. Work (also an executive at B.F Goodrich Company).

Portage's 18-hole golf course was designed in 1918 by famed architect William B. Langford.

In 1936, A.W. Tillinghast, the famous architect who designed Winged Foot Golf Club, Baltusrol Golf Club, Bethpage State Park, San Francisco Golf Club and many other renowned golf courses, did reconstructive work to Portage's course. In 2014, Portage hired Schreiner Golf, Inc. to reconstruct its bunkers, improve drainage and do other renovations to the golf course. Otherwise, the course has more or less remained in its original state since inception.. The course is challenging yet fun and offers some of the best short and long range practice facilities in the area.

Located in Akron, Ohio Portage CC is a wonderful century plus old course that is extremely fun to play.
