Stockton at Stockton Golf & Country Club

Stockton Golf & Country Club sits in the rolling Ozark foothills of southwestern Missouri, near Stockton Lake in Cedar County. The course serves a small-town community where golf has been part of local recreation for decades. Like many rural Missouri layouts, it reflects the practical design sensibilities common to regional courses built to provide accessible golf in a landscape shaped by limestone bedrock, oak-hickory forest, and the area's characteristic elevation changes.

The routing works with the natural topography, incorporating modest elevation shifts and wooded corridors typical of the Ozarks. Fairways move through a mix of open and tree-lined holes, and the design emphasizes playability for a membership that includes families and golfers of varying skill levels. Greens are generally modest in size and contour, consistent with courses designed for year-round maintenance by small staffs in this climate.

Stockton Lake, a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers reservoir completed in the 1960s, transformed the area into a recreational destination, and the golf course benefits from the scenic backdrop of lake country. The club functions as a gathering place for the local community, hosting league play, junior programs, and social events that reflect the traditions of small-town Missouri golf clubs. The setting offers a quiet, unpretentious golf experience characteristic of the region's rural courses.
