Country Club of St Albans

The Country Club of St. Albans features the Lewis & Clark course, designed by Tom Weiskopf and Jay Morrish. Located in St. Albans, a small community in Franklin County west of St. Louis, the course sits in the rolling terrain characteristic of the Missouri River valley region. Weiskopf and Morrish collaborated on numerous projects during their partnership in the 1980s and 1990s, bringing a design philosophy that emphasized strategic options and natural land movement. The routing takes advantage of the property's elevation changes and wooded corridors, creating a layout that requires thoughtful club selection and course management. The design team's approach typically involved shaping greens with subtle contours and positioning bunkers to reward accurate play while offering recovery options for less precise shots. The course reflects the naturalistic style that became a hallmark of Weiskopf-Morrish collaborations during this era. St. Albans operates as a private club serving members from the greater St. Louis metropolitan area. The facility provides a retreat from urban surroundings while remaining accessible to the city. The club maintains the course conditions expected of a private membership facility, with attention to turf quality and presentation throughout the playing season.
