Golf in Oakland

Oakland is a small Fayette County city in the eastern Memphis suburbs, in the loess hill terrain east of Shelby County. Fayette County has grown as an outer suburban destination for Memphis-area residents seeking rural space and lower costs, and Oakland's position along U.S. Highway 64 has made it one of the county's primary growth nodes. The surrounding Fayette County landscape retains a rural character — horse farms, timber tracts, and small-scale agriculture persist alongside the newer residential subdivisions. Golf in Oakland serves the eastern Memphis metro fringe in a setting that combines suburban access with a more rural landscape than the inner Shelby County communities.
