Oakwood Golf Course

Richer sits in the Rural Municipality of Ste. Anne, about 40 kilometres southeast of Winnipeg along the Trans-Canada Highway — flat prairie country where the land opens wide and the sky tends to dominate. Oakwood Golf Course serves the communities along this corridor, drawing regulars from the southeast Winnipeg suburbs as well as locals from the small French-heritage villages that dot this part of the Red River plain.

Manitoba golf has a character all its own: a short season compressed between May and October, courses that reward ball-strikers who can manage wind across open terrain, and a genuinely unpretentious culture where the game belongs to everyone. A layout in this setting typically rewards patience and course management over raw power, with the prairie breeze capable of turning a comfortable round into a genuine test without changing a single pin position.

As a community-oriented course in a rural southeast Manitoba setting, Oakwood offers the kind of accessible, no-frills golf that forms the backbone of the game in this province — a place to play regularly, know your neighbours on the tee, and enjoy the wide-open landscape that defines the region.
