Heritage at Shangri-La Country Club

Shangri-La Country Club's Heritage course on Monkey Island represents a quintessential Oklahoma golfing experience. The layout, routed across rolling hills overlooking Grand Lake O' the Cherokees, features dramatic elevation changes and water hazards that come into play on nearly every hole. Wide, forgiving fairways belie the challenge that awaits on and around the green complexes. The course favors those who can shape the ball right-to-left, navigating the strategically placed bunkers and undulating surfaces.

Originally designed by Floyd Farley in the late 1960s, the Heritage course evokes a classic parkland feel. A recent renovation has revitalized the course, further enhancing the playing experience. The tree lined fairways and thick rough demand accuracy off the tee while the bentgrass greens require precise approach shots.

Beyond the golf, Shangri-La fosters a family friendly atmosphere. A popular anecdote among members recalls impromptu fishing tournaments for the youngsters after a round, reinforcing the club's appeal as a place where recreation and relaxation intertwine.
