ABOUT ST. JOSEPH COUNTRY CLUB
Founded in 1898, St. Joseph Country Club (SJCC) is the oldest country club west of the Mississippi River and home to an A.W. Tillinghast-designed championship course. We host premier events like the Missouri Amateur and Highland Invitational, pairing classic Midwestern hospitality with year-round golf, dining, and family-friendly experiences. As St. Joseph's only all-inclusive event venue, SJCC blends history, community, and modern amenities to create an exceptional place to work and belong.
A LEGACY REIMAGINED
St. Joseph Country Club is entering a new era, combining timeless tradition with modern luxury. Our recent transformation features a state-of-the-art ballroom and patio, a five-star kitchen with a Michelin style Chefs Table experience, and refreshed facilities including a redesigned 13th hole. And the upgrades aren't stopping there - next come a Tournament House "Stay and Play" villa, pickleball courts, a Golf Museum Room, and continued enhancements across our clubhouse and grounds. Together, these investments position SJCC as northwest Missouri's premier destination for golf, gatherings, and gracious hospitality.
