Fair Oaks boasts two 18-hole golf courses. They are The Blackjack Oak course and The Live Oak course. Gary Player and Denis Griffith designed Blackjack Oak. Gary Player and Ron Kirby designed Live Oak.

This club has two eighteen-hole courses. Both courses were built on hilly terrain. The tree-lined fairways are narrow, and the greens are large. Several ponds and creeks come into play throughout these picturesque courses. Both courses offer enjoyable and challenging terrain. However, the BlackJack Course is reputed to be more difficult than the Live Oak Course.
