It was an eighteen hole course on 15 acres/[1] This location was short-lived as the land was owned by The Scottish Ontario and Manitoba Land Company (founded by William Bain Scarth in 1879) and the area was being acquired to become a residential development called North Rosedale.
[2] In 1909, the course moved north along the Don River to its current site between the neighbourhoods of Teddington Park to the west, Lawrence Park to the south, The Bridle Path to the east and Hoggs Hollow to the north.
[citation needed] Members of the Toronto Jewish community bought land and established the Oakdale Golf & Country Club in 1926 in response to antisemitism in Canada that strictly excluded Jews from private golf clubs, including the Rosedale Golf Club.
In more recent years, the club has elected to only host tournaments that cause little disruption to the membership.
[citation needed] The course plays to par 71 (73 for ladies) and is 6,525 yards in length.
