Meadowbrook is a nine-hole golf course located in central New York, just off New York State Thruway exit 40, midway between Rochester and Syracuse. James and Dee Ball started the course in 1968 on land that had been their family dairy farm. The Balls ran the course until 1985, using the family house as a clubhouse. In 1985 they sold the course to Robert Beardsley and Marlin Hutton. In 1990 Marlin and Suzanne Hutton bought Mr. Beardsley’s share and operated the business until May 2008.
