White Dog Hill Restaurant
The White Dog Hill restaurant is in the clubhouse of the former Clinton Country Club, located on a hill three miles east of downtown
and a quarter-mile north of Route 66. The clubhouse and nearby caretaker’s quarters were built out of native red sandstone in 1926.
The private, nine-hole course that used sand greens closed about 1960. It served as a residence until its abandonment in 1983. It
deteriorated into an illegal dump and as a haven for vandals for nearly 20 years, until Nelson acquired the property.
“If the place hadn’t been built like a bunker, it wouldn’t be standing,” Nelson said.
“I thought it was a neat structure,” he said. “I saw it from the highway, and I thought, ‘I really want this.’”
“People keep telling me: ‘I’ve always wanted that place but didn’t want to take it on.’”
He informally called the grounds White Dog Hill, after his mixed-breed pet of the same name. The name stuck.
The restaurant is a supper-only operation except for Sundays, which will include brunch. He describes it as a steakhouse in which he’ll
use as many fresh ingredients as possible.
“There’s too much processed food,” he says. “I want to do more handmade food.” In fact, the old flower beds in front of the clubhouse
(shown below) are being used to grow herbs. The restaurant’s slogan is, “Come for the view … stay for the food,” and both are worth
the trip.
