Robert H. Hawkins purchased the property in February 1926 and created a nine-hole course called Mapledale Country Club. At a time when segregation prevented Black golfers from playing many established clubs, Mapledale became an important Black-owned and operated golf venue.
The property later developed into Stow Acres Country Club with North and South courses designed by Geoffrey Cornish. S. Amateur Public Links.
For the 2026 season it was reconfigured as a nine-hole par-35 course using portions of its former front and back nines, leaving the property with 27 holes in total.
Beyond tournament history, Stow Acres is significant for Mapledale's role in providing competitive golf opportunities to Black players during the segregation era.
Stow Acres currently operates an 18-hole South Course and nine-hole North Course alongside a TrackMan range, golf school, pro shop, putting greens, restaurant and historic Victorian clubhouse.
