OAK HILLS GOLF & COUNTRY CLUB
🇺🇸 Ada, OK, USA
Designed by Perry Maxwell
Oak Hills Golf & Country Club sits in Ada, a small city in south-central Oklahoma, and features a Perry Maxwell design that reflects the architect's characteristic approach to routing and strategic interest. Maxwell, who worked extensively across Oklahoma and the broader region during the early-to-mid twentieth century, shaped courses that emphasized natural contours and thoughtful green complexes, and Oak Hills follows this template within the rolling terrain of the area.
The course occupies land typical of this part of Oklahoma, with modest elevation changes and native vegetation that frames the holes. Maxwell's design philosophy favored strategic options over pure length, encouraging players to consider angles of approach and the consequences of miss-hit shots. The greens at Oak Hills likely feature the subtle breaks and false fronts common to Maxwell's work, rewarding careful observation and touch around the putting surfaces.
Oak Hills serves as the primary private club facility in Ada, a community with deep ties to oil and agriculture. The club functions as a social and recreational hub for local members, offering traditional country club amenities alongside the golf course. While it does not host professional tournaments or appear on national rankings, Oak Hills represents a regional example of Maxwell's enduring design principles and provides a familiar setting for golfers in southeastern Oklahoma.
