Nice and somewhat refreshed course

This was the first time I have played at Northdale in a couple of years. Before you could tell that the course was and off site amenities were in bad shape and the clubhouse felt like it was from the 80’s. Now it looks like there is new ownership and they are trying to improve the course condition and upkeep of the grounds. The greens played well and were in good shape. The clubhouse bathrooms were clean and pro shop was updated. I did not have a chance to check out the updated restaurant, but it looked interesting with some Chinese food options. I would play this course again.

Slow Greens, bad fairways and rough

Don't miss the fairways, you end up in deep clover or dirt with a little clump of grass....which describes the fairways also.

Course Conditions

This course has so much potential. But the cart paths needing repairs and the many weeds in Fairways keep this course from reaching it.

Northdale

The course layout was absolutely fine. Some tricky holes, good water holes for a public course. We only had time for 9 holes before our flight out, so it was great.

A couple of tons of fertilizer and seeds would make this a much improved course. Carts are a bit worn. Cart paths need work.

Green were in fine shape, just play winter rules on fairways as they need much improvement.

With a little investment of money, and time, this could be a much improved course.

Poor conditions due to lack of watering

Played this course before when it was well maintained, not now shows signs of neglect and poor upkeep. Although the greens played true and in better condition than the overall course. Will play again this summer when the rains should help the fairways.
