Welcome to 'Villa Corola', originally the estate of Isaac Guggenheim and later known as the IBM Country Club. Isaac started building the Manor House in 1916, completing it in 1918. After his death in 1922, his brother, Solomon R. Guggenheim purchased the property in 1924. Solomon, a key figure in the Guggenheim family's fortune, used his wealth for art, most notably founding the Guggenheim Museum in New York. The estate was redesigned in the Italian Renaissance style by H. Van Buren Magonigle, with extensive gardens and various outbuildings, including stables and greenhouses.

After Solomon's death in 1948, IBM purchased the property in 1953, transforming it into a country club and executive training center. The property remained with IBM until it was sold to the Village of Sands Point in December 1994. The original 9-hole golf course underwent significant renovations in 2000, with the addition of nine new holes designed by renowned golf course architect, Tom Doak. They made renovations to the original nine holes and expanded the course into a full 18-hole layout. Along with the course updates, the historic dairy barn was transformed into a modern golf pro shop, while the original chauffeur's garage was repurposed into a bar and grille restaurant, complete with locker rooms upstairs.
