The idea for the club was proposed by land developers John Landau and Charles Cohen to attract residential buyers to the newly formed area of Auckland Park.
To preserve the club's legacy, the committee decided to sell the land used for the golf course but managed to retain the Auckland Park Clubhouse and its surrounding area.
The course is planted with Kikuyu grass on the tees, fairways, and semi-rough, while the greens are constructed to USGA specifications and seeded with L93 Bentgrass.

The Mashie course is designed for family fun and beginners, with hole distances ranging from 60 to 150 metres.
