Patricia Island at Patricia Island Golf Club

Patricia Island Golf Club occupies a distinctive setting in Grove, Oklahoma, near the shores of Grand Lake O' the Cherokees in the northeastern corner of the state. Designed by Tripp Davis and opened in the early 2000s, the course takes advantage of the rolling Ozark foothills terrain that characterizes this region. Davis, a Texas-based architect known for his work across the South and Southwest, routed the layout to incorporate natural elevation changes and wooded corridors typical of the area's landscape.

The course plays through a mix of hardwood forests and more open terrain, with several holes offering views toward the lake and surrounding hills. The routing makes use of the property's natural contours, creating variety in hole presentations and requiring thoughtful club selection on approach shots where elevation comes into play. Water features appear on multiple holes, reflecting the proximity to Grand Lake and adding strategic considerations throughout the round.

Patricia Island serves primarily as a private club facility, catering to members and their guests in a region known for recreational lake activities and seasonal tourism. The course provides a golf option in an area of Oklahoma more associated with water sports than traditional golf destinations, though the northeastern part of the state has developed several courses taking advantage of the scenic Ozark landscape. The layout offers a parkland-style experience distinct from the flatter terrain found in much of Oklahoma.
