Forest Hills Country Club is a historic country club located in Wayne Township, Wayne County, Indiana. The clubhouse was built in 1927, and is a two-story, stuccoed, Tudor Revival style building. It has a cross-gable roof with half-timbering on the gable ends. William H. (Bill) Diddel designed a nine-hole golf course for the Forest Hills Country Club in 1927. In 1931, the club brought Diddel back to add another nine holes. Also on the property are the contributing swimming pool, two maintenance buildings, and two shelters.[2]:5
