Cherry Oaks Golf Club

Cheney sits about 20 miles west of Wichita on the flat, windswept plains of south-central Kansas, where the reservoir draws fishermen and the sky runs wide in every direction. Golf out here means learning to live with the wind — it shapes shot selection, humbles distance assumptions, and turns a routine approach into a genuine decision. Cherry Oaks Golf Club occupies this landscape as a community course serving the small towns and rural communities that dot Sedgwick County beyond the city limits.

The name suggests a property with some tree cover — a meaningful amenity on the Kansas prairie, where mature oaks and cherry trees can define corridors, offer shade, and create visual separation between holes that pure open farmland rarely provides. A par-72 layout at this level typically rewards straight, managed golf over power, and the wind alone ensures that scoring is never as simple as the terrain might suggest.

For Wichita-area golfers looking to escape the metro, Cherry Oaks offers a genuinely local alternative — the kind of course where regulars know each other by name and the game feels unhurried.
