The first attempt to set up a golf club in Lossiemouth was in 1875, when a seven-hole course was established in the Stotfield area. This club failed after a few years, and it wasn't until 30 March 1889 that the present club was officially opened. At that time, the club had 82 members who were mostly from Elgin, the county capital, some 6 miles to the south.
