About this course

Oakwood Country Club in Enid, Oklahoma, was designed by Perry Maxwell and his son Press Maxwell, two of the most accomplished golf architects of the mid-twentieth century. Perry Maxwell earned a national reputation for his work across the Southwest and beyond, while Press continued and refined his father's design philosophy. The course reflects the Maxwell family's characteristic approach to routing and green design, adapted to the rolling terrain and native landscape of the Oklahoma panhandle region. The layout takes advantage of Enid's natural topography, with holes that move through gently undulating ground typical of the area. The Maxwells were known for their thoughtful use of native vegetation and strategic bunkering rather than excessive earthmoving, creating a course that feels integrated into its setting. Greens feature the firm, contoured surfaces that became a hallmark of their designs, rewarding precise approach play and offering varied pin positions that challenge golfers of different skill levels. As a private country club, Oakwood has served the Enid community for decades, hosting regional competitions and member events. The course maintains the character of a classic regional design—approachable for club members yet architecturally sound, with the kind of strategic depth that rewards repeated play and local knowledge. The Maxwell name carries significant weight in Oklahoma golf history, and Oakwood represents their contribution to the state's course architecture during a formative era.

Getting there

Oakwood Country Club is most readily accessed via Vance Air Force Base's civilian terminal or the regional Woodring Municipal Airport (END), both situated within minutes of Enid's quiet northwestern landscape. Travelers arriving from major hubs such as Dallas-Fort Worth International (DFW) or Oklahoma City's Will Rogers World Airport (OKC) face a straightforward drive of roughly two to three hours northward through the gently rolling plains of central Oklahoma, a passage that shifts gradually from interstate commerce to the intimate back roads threading through Enid's established neighborhoods. The final miles unfold along tree-lined avenues that speak to the club's deep roots in the community, delivering you to a sanctuary of manicured fairways and clubhouse tradition that has anchored Enid's golfing life for generations. The journey itself - unhurried and grounded in the quiet dignity of the American heartland - sets the tone for an arrival at a club defined by understated excellence and local stewardship.
