ABOUT TULSA COUNTRY CLUB AND COMMUNITY
Tulsa Country Club (TCC), established in 1908, is a premier private club located minutes from downtown Tulsa.
As Tulsa's first private club, TCC is known for its championship golf course, active membership, and a culture that blends tradition with the modern touches today's members seek.
Following the recent completion of a multi-year $15 million capital initiative, Transform TCC, the Club features updated amenities including new member dining areas, refreshed locker rooms, pool, grill, and banquet rooms, as well as a newly constructed Golf Performance Center, Club and Bag Storage Building, and a new Turf and Landscape Maintenance Facility.
At the heart of the Club is its exceptional 18-hole golf course, originally designed by legendary architect A.

Widely regarded as one of the finest courses in the region, it offers classic design integrity, pristine playing conditions, and sweeping skyline views just minutes from downtown.
Beyond golf, members enjoy tennis and pickleball courts, a vibrant tournament schedule, and a professional staff dedicated to preserving the course's architectural legacy and year-round excellence.

A recently refreshed resort-style pool serves as the heart of summer, featuring shaded lounge areas, casual dining, and robust seasonal programming.
The clubhouse offers elevated dining experiences, casual gathering spaces, and private event venues capable of hosting intimate dinners or celebrations for up to 300 guests.
Family-focused offerings-including a daily Kids Club and summer-long Kids Camp-ensure that every generation feels at home.
