Air Space

Being from Minnesota and not having played in 4 months I look at first round in Florida like I am just renting air space to hit a golf ball and work out the cobwebs.. Great value. Greens were great and fairways were not an issue. I like layout and pace of play was not an issue.

Very nice for the price!

Very nice track, especially for the price. Greens were in really good shape and rolled true. Fairways are a little patchy on the back 9 but very playable. Loved the layout. Definitely recommend if you’re in the area and not wanting to spend a fortune.

It could be so much better....

The only thing good about conditions here are the greens. They stand out against the otherwise poor conditions.

Fast round

We have played Northdale many times over the years. The course condition is improving this year. We played an extremely quick round today, which was nice. The layout is good and will not beat you up too badly. The course is straightforward. What you see is what you get. We always enjoy playing Northdale. We were disappointed to see some staff members not wearing masks inside today
