Oakwood Country Club was a prominent Cleveland area course that evolved from a 9 hole layout in 1906 to a full 18 by the mid 1910s. For generations it served as a social and sporting hub, remembered for classic architecture and a sophisticated membership culture. The club ultimately closed in 2010 after more than a century of operation, and the property was later repurposed. Even so, Oakwood's history looms large in Northeast Ohio golf, referenced in archives and neighborhood histories. Ask long time golfers in the region and you'll still hear stories about its greens, its gatherings, and the stature it held.
