About
Northdale Golf & Tennis Club remains one of the premier Tampa golf courses because of its affordable play, its use of water on 11 of 18 holes, bunkers, rolling undulations and contoured greens that really challenge players. Just 12 miles north of Tampa International Airport, this is a neighborhood golf course with a friendly, relaxed atmosphere that will add to the enjoyment of your day. Renowned golf course architect Ron Garl designed the par 72, 6824-yard championship golf course. Northdale Golf & Tennis Club winds its way through 180 plus acres of property that is home to Brushy Creek and a series of small lakes and unspoiled wooded areas.

Train employees
My friend group was approached for having 6 guys together on a hole. That’s understandable, we made the correction and told the “ranger” we would abide by his wishes. Though we obliged, “ranger Rick” was extremely rude and unprofessional. It’s necessary that he learn how to speak to customers. This was my first time visiting this course and I don’t intend on returning. In addition, around hole 9 or 10, my friend ran into “ranger Rick” again. He was watching us throughout the shots taken at that hole. Not sure what the deal was, but he did a very poor job when handling our situation. Training should be addressed for this employee. We had tee times at 10:06AM and 10:16AM. Your employee knows about this exact situation, please perform the due diligence necessary for him to conduct his job duties appropriately. .
Aerated Greens
Course was nice but I wish they would have told us the greens were aerated that day
Dump
Greens punched recently but no price break! Balls bouncing on green like meadowlark lemon dribble. Fairways trash, lots of dead spots. Won't go back again to this gRbage dump
What Happened
I've played here a number of times and it has always been in good shape. This time:
- greens punched without notice
-fairways in awful shape
-rough was unkept and unplayable
Overall it was very disappointing, and embarrassing seeing that I convinced my group to play at the course this time.
NorthDale
Really wish there was a way for courses to let you know beforehand that they greens have recently been aerated
Stay away for now
It's back 9 only, greens are punched and slow as you know what. Pace was so slow I only played 9, waiting 10 to 15 minutes each shot. No mention on golf now about this!
Not going to return here
Overgrown and unkempt fringe, putting area and rough. Surfaces were hard and tee areas difficult to place a tee.
Very Nice Greens
The greens are very nice the rest of the course needs a lot of work.
Could be a nice course
Its has been over 3 years since I play here, and I live at about 10 minutes away.
Last time, pace of play was just terrible, T-boxes and fairways and greens needed some serious attention.
Fast forward to today, well, nothing much has change.
First: there is no ranger you pay and just go and try to tee off, there would be at least 4 groups waiting.
The groups on front os us, hit at least 3 balls each on most of their shots.
The course is really not exciting at all, if the greens t boxes and fairways where taking care of it could be., add someone to speed up people.
But nope not the case you would just has to wait on the t-box on every shot, today they had some kind of tournament going on, si that did not help.
I’m always amazed how many people who can not get off the t-box choose to play from the tips, I mean I get it you pay to play, but damm hit one ball and move on.
One good thing, they renovated the bathrooms on the golf course, oh course you would has to call the club house if you want to use then, as you will need a code. Here is a free tip, write the code on the score card.
The guy who is taking the cars in to charge and clean then, he needs some serious people skills.
I was dropping the car off, and this dude a white dude with a goatee, came flaying full blast, and turn while stopping to skid the car, getting next to this asian looking older men, and say (Why did you change cars) the guy was kind shock this dude almost hot his car where he was putting his golf bag.
The tone was very condescending and rude..!
So, don’t bother with this place there lots of good golf courses around,
Also I shot a 72 so no I’m not bitter is just an honest review.
The pace of play was very slow. Took almost 5 hours to finish the 18 holes.
Needs improvement
I’ve played this course several times, but now it looks neglected... fairways and greens in need of some improvements
