About this course

Fair Oaks Golf Club sits in Oakland, Tennessee, a suburban community in Fayette County roughly 30 miles east of Memphis. The course was designed by Kevin Tucker, a regional architect who has worked on several layouts across the Mid-South. The property occupies gently rolling terrain characteristic of western Tennessee, with mature hardwoods framing fairways and natural elevation changes that add strategic interest to the routing. The design takes advantage of the native topography, incorporating doglegs and elevation shifts that require thoughtful club selection and course management. Water features appear on several holes, and the bunkering style reflects a traditional approach common to courses built in this region during recent decades. The greens vary in size and contour, offering a mix of straightforward approaches and more demanding targets that reward precision. Fair Oaks serves as a community-oriented club in the Oakland area, catering to local golfers and families. The facility includes practice areas and a clubhouse that supports member activities and casual dining. The course provides a solid test for players of varying skill levels, with multiple tee boxes allowing flexibility in length and difficulty. Its location in the growing Oakland corridor makes it accessible to golfers from both Fayette County and the greater Memphis metropolitan area.

Getting there

The journey to Fair Oaks Golf Club begins at Memphis International Airport, roughly thirty miles to the southwest, where the transition from urban sprawl to rural Tennessee unfolds in under forty minutes. The drive northeast traces the contours of the Wolf River basin, passing through farmland and stands of hardwood before arriving in the unincorporated hamlet of Oakland, where Fair Oaks sits tucked quietly among the rolling countryside. This is golf reached not through resort fanfare but through deliberate pilgrimage - a turn off Highway 64, a final stretch of country road, and the discovery of one of the region's most understated yet architecturally significant layouts.
