The Doyle Country Club (aka Doyle's Country Club or simply the Doyle Club, formerly Clark's Grove[2]) is a historic, privately owned country club located on Mary Ingles Highway in Dayton, Kentucky, a rural area of Campbell County, Kentucky. Located on a beachfront property on the shore of the Ohio River, it is the last surviving river camp community along the Ohio River Valley.[3][4]

The club was incorporated in Dayton, Kentucky in 1919, but had already been active for several years.[5] During a January 1913 flood of the Ohio River, The Cincinnati Enquirer reported all of the cottages erected by the Club under water,[6] and following the Great Dayton Flood the same year, "five or six cottages were swept off their foundations".[7]

The Kentucky Historic Preservation Review Board under the Kentucky Heritage Council advanced the nomination of the Doyle Country Club to the National Register of Historic Places in 2016,[8] and Doyle's was added to the National Register of Historic Places in March 2017.[9][10]
