Wianno Club is a historic club on Sea View Avenue in Osterville, Massachusetts. In 1916, a nine hole course was built on the original land purchase now occupied by holes numbered 13-18. The 16th was the first hole, and the Swan residence behind the hole was built as the original clubhouse. Additional land was assembled on the west side of Parker Road and north of West Bay Road and in 1919, Donald Ross was hired to redesign the original nine and to create a new nine. [2]

Former chief justice of the United States Supreme Court Charles Evans Hughes died in the Tiffany Cottage, just east of the main clubhouse.

The Shingle Style building was constructed in 1887 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.[1]
