Corica Park - The Earl Fry North Course

This course (North course) was overpriced for what is it. The fairways seemed dry, maybe it’s just the grass color?? Not sure,, but they were a very pale green color, tee boxes were okay, and greens were pretty good. If you like links style golf courses with undulating fairways and greens and pot bunkers then this is for you! I like to see clearly where the fairways ends on each side, which you cannot here, so not my preference. A lot of the water on this course was a murky brown color, which did NOT help the aesthetic of the course. I believe it does have potential and it recently opened up in 2025 so maybe it just needs a little more time..

Super fun links style course - great staff and a nice bar.

I played the morning after a raining night into the morning and the course was well drained, you can actually see drain receptacles on the fairways. Pace of play was a bit on the slow side, 18 holes just under 4 hours for a single.

The new North pivots in a completely different direction architecturally than the Australian Sandbelt-themed South Course at Corica Park. It plays linksy, with firm turf thanks to 6 to 12 inches of sandcapping for proper drainage. Athletic turf from the Oakland Raiders' former practice facility was used for the stacked faces of the revetted sod wall bunkers. The cart paths are lined with 125 tons of recycled walnut shells. I actually hit a few solid shots off of them without an issue. I first played the front nine, originally designed by architect Marc Logan, in 2022. The wild green contours took a toll on my scorecard. After a legal tussle and a reset, Robert Trent Jones II completed the back nine. His team made a few minor changes on the front, including lengthening the drivable 8th hole beyond 258 yards to 283 yards from the tips. Avoiding water is the top priority on the back nine. Water running up the left side of the 295-yard 15th can derail what should be a birdie hole. My foursome hit multiple clubs - driver, hybrid, fairway wood - and none of us came away with par. That's the sign of a tricky, risk-reward hole.

Great upgrade and a fun layout. Wind and the greens are it's greatest defense. Good condition and the ball can run a long way

Course is beautiful, challenging greens with lots of undlations. The only problems r super windy in the afternoon and some really short par 4s. Overall fun challenging Course but a little pricy

This course is amazing. itbis short but the wicked greens demand accurate placement of your approach shots. the undulating surfaces were fast but rolled true. will definitely play again soon

I've been wanting to play the newly opened North course, since the opened the back nine. I found the course challenging, especially the greens on the front which has been opened for several years. The new back nine offered some challenging holes and the greens were less severe with regard to undulations. However, it seems like the greens need to mature some more to play like the smooth surfaces of the older front nine. Look forward to coming back after using the round as a learning experience.

Marshal did nothing to pick up the pace. Younger golfer have no golf edicate playing from the tips and waiting for greens to clear before hitting a hundred yards . Not worth $120 to play. Will not be returning. I golf 2 to 4 times a week not justified to play here.

Finally got to play North! Loved the layout. And the greens rolled well, despite the undulations! Very good experience!

Cheaper if paid and booked by the course. Pace of play is slow recommend walking the course. If you ride its free massage.

My first time playing the new North Course at Corica Park. Always enjoy playing the South Course, so nice to have another option there. Conditions were very windy so that made the course challenging . . in addition to not knowing all the landing spots. Greens had lots of undulation and were very quick, especially on the front 9. Water in play a lot on the back, so be sure to check the layout before teeing off. Nice to have a couple drivable par 4s as well. We walked and pace of play was great with a 4:20 round. Will definitely be back and hopefully in less windy conditions.

Played Corica North course for the first time. Interesting layout with some tough holes

Slow play due to new design. First time playing here and was really hoping that it was going to be better than the original course it was NOT. I know golf is getting expensive but charging $100+ to play this course is ridiculous. Ok my thoughts on the course itself. The fairways have to many uneven lies on most of the hole that affect tee shots to severely with bad bounces etc. The new layout feels like they forced some of the holes in… No flow to round. I do appreciate that they are putting the effort / money into these golf courses to try and make them better. I will say I think the bunkers were done nicely but I wish they would have either left the old layout or took more time on how to make it all work better. My two cents….
