Oakland Country Club ☆ Follow

Oakland-Riverside Golf Course, formerly known as Oakland Country Club, is a nine-hole public golf course located in Oakland, Iowa. Established in 1960 and designed by Olsson & Associates, the course plays 2,418 yards from the back tees with a par of 34 and a slope rating of 115. The course is built on hilly terrain with tree-lined fairways and features large, slightly sloped greens. With no sand bunkers but a pond hazard on one hole, the executive-style layout offers moderate difficulty suitable for various skill levels.

The course opened through the efforts of Oakland civic leaders who recognized the importance of recreational amenities for community growth. What began as a private club operation through the Oakland Country Club eventually transitioned to city ownership, with the course now operating as a public facility serving golfers from Oakland, Carson, Macedonia, and the surrounding southwest Iowa region. The facility includes a clubhouse with dining options and hosts corporate outings, leagues, and tournaments throughout the year.
