Northdale Golf Club

Not worth playing right now. The course is aerated and is basically just weeds. Don’t waste your money.

Course was nice but I wish they would have told us the greens were aerated that day

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. .

People in front of us played slow and the people behind us rushed us by playing fast so we didn’t have to take our time hitting our shots

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

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.

Really wish there was a way for courses to let you know beforehand that they greens have recently been aerated

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!

They just punched the greens so that is what it is. The surprising part is other than that this course is gone so far downhill and just 30 days it’s basically just a cow pasture every kind of weed you can imagine and Clover lots of burnt out spots in the fairways just skip it.

Btw I ask the guy in the pro shop what happened & he said new ownership ran out of money.

Overgrown and unkempt fringe, putting area and rough. Surfaces were hard and tee areas difficult to place a tee.

The greens are very nice the rest of the course needs a lot of work.

Booked a solo tee time at 11:45. Hit the grill before check-in, staff was friendly and the BLT was cash. Club house was chill, they weren’t busy so he told me I would go with a pair that booked at the same time as I did, or not, my choice.

The course itself is of course dry with little to no fairway grass to speak of. It’s like hitting off concrete in some places, but to fault them for that isn’t fair. We haven’t had rain in the Tampa area in weeks. Still, the tee boxes and greens could be loved a little more as they need a lot more than just water.

Pace of play wasn’t great. No one was behind me but traffic on every hole in front of me, again, not the courses fault. No cart girl or water coolers so bring cold snacks accordingly.

Layout is decent. Water on 11 of 18 holes I believe, with a really cool par 3 ‘island’ on the front 9. Not the funnest layout I’ve ever played, but not vanilla either.

Overall, I lean 7.1/10 with it. Not bad, but not great either. Will play again.
