Five of the Donald Ross holes remain intact today and are the current #s 2, 3, 4, 14 and 15. In 1961 Geoffrey Cornish redesigned Tekoa, keeping 5 of the original Donald Ross holes intact and adding 13 of his own design.

Tekoa Country Club is a fairly flat course. The course has a gorgeous view of the Westfield River. The course features tall pine trees lining its fairways and large greens. Water hazards come into play on five holes, so shot accuracy is at a premium.
