About this course
Plantation Golf Club sits in Olive Branch, Mississippi, a suburb just south of Memphis, Tennessee. Designed by William Leathers and opened in the mid-1990s, the course serves a residential community in the northern Mississippi region. Leathers, a Memphis-based architect, has designed numerous courses throughout the Mid-South, and his work at Plantation reflects the rolling terrain characteristic of this transitional zone between the Mississippi Delta flatlands to the west and the hill country to the east. The layout incorporates natural elevation changes and wooded corridors, with holes routed through stands of hardwoods and pines. Water features appear on several holes, typical of residential courses in this era and region. The design balances accessibility for members with strategic interest, using the property's topography to create variety in hole character and shot requirements. Fairways generally offer reasonable width, while greens present moderate undulation. As a private club serving the Olive Branch and greater Memphis area, Plantation functions primarily as a member amenity within its residential development. The course provides a home club for local golfers seeking regular play in a traditional country club setting. The facility includes practice areas and clubhouse amenities standard for clubs of this type in the region.

Getting there
The journey to Plantation Golf Club begins at Memphis International Airport, just twenty minutes north across the Tennessee state line - a proximity that makes this Mississippi retreat one of the most accessible private clubs in the Mid-South. The drive south on I-55 is brief and unadorned, transitioning quickly from urban sprawl to the gently rolling farmland and wooded corridors of northern Mississippi's DeSoto County. Within minutes of exiting the interstate, the landscape softens into the kind of quiet, pastoral setting that belies the club's proximity to a major metropolitan hub, arriving at gates that open onto one of the region's most distinguished and discreet golfing sanctuaries.
