Edmonton Petroleum Golf & Country Club

Edmonton Petroleum Golf & Country Club sits in Spruce Grove, just west of Edmonton in central Alberta. The course was designed by Mark McCumber and Mike Beebe and opened in the late 1990s as a private facility serving members of the petroleum industry and broader business community in the region. The layout takes advantage of the gently rolling parkland terrain characteristic of this part of the province, with mature trees framing fairways and natural elevation changes creating visual interest throughout the round. McCumber, a former PGA Tour player who transitioned to course design, brought a player's perspective to the routing. The design incorporates strategic bunkering and water features that come into play on several holes, requiring thoughtful club selection and course management. The property's natural contours allow for varied hole presentations, with doglegs, elevated greens, and risk-reward opportunities that reward local knowledge and careful play. The club has served as a venue for provincial amateur competitions and regional events over the years, contributing to Alberta's competitive golf landscape. As a private club with roots in the energy sector, it maintains traditional country club amenities and a membership culture reflective of Edmonton's business community. The course provides a year-round social hub during Alberta's limited golf season, which typically runs from late spring through early fall given the northern climate.
