The Ottawa Hunt and Golf Club, often referred to as Ottawa Hunt or the Hunt Club, is a private golf and curling club located in Ottawa, Ontario. It was founded in 1908, where it was first known as a hunting club. It has hosted many world-class professional and amateur golf tournaments.

The Ottawa Hunt Club was founded in 1908. After World War I, it expanded into golf, with its course being designed in 1924 by former two-time British Open champion Willie Park, Jnr., one of the world's top golf architects of that era. Its curling facility opened in 1959.

The Club hosted the Canadian Open in 1932 and the Americas Cup golf matches in 1960. It hosted the Canadian Amateur Championship in 1937, 1960, and 1970.

The course was redesigned, mainly in its green complexes, by Tom McBroom in 1993, and hosted the 1994 du Maurier Classic on the LPGA Tour, won by Martha Nause with a score of 279 (nine under par) for four rounds.

Ottawa Hunt, which has 27 holes of golf, hosted the LPGA Tour's CN Canadian Women's Open on its South and West nines, in August, 2008, celebrating the club's centennial. The tournament was won by Australian Katherine Hull, with a score of 277 (11 under par) for four rounds. Hull edged Se Ri Pak by one stroke and Yani Tseng by two strokes, with Tseng setting a new ladies' competitive course record with a round of 64 on day two. The 2008 edition of the tournament set new attendance records, with more than 70,000 fans, and raised more than $1 million (Canadian) for charity.
