Initially designed by American architect William Mitchell, Maple Downs opened in 1954 on the rolling hills of the Oak Ridges Moraine. The club picked an ideal location—the property has just the right mix of elevation to always be interesting and present incredible natural vistas.
In 2014, noted Ontario golf designer Ian Andrew rebuilt much of Maple Downs, utilizing much of the original routing, but reconsidering the strategy on many holes, while recrafting bunkers and greens.
The result? The course’s USGA state-of-the-art bentgrass greens will ensure ideal playing conditions throughout the seasons, while the bunkering and green contours make the course a delight to play time and again. It quickly became a staple on lists of Canada’s top courses.
