The 18-hole North Shore Golf Club in Orlando, Florida is a semi-private golf course that opened in 2001. The course slides around lakes and wetlands, and then detours through a grove of large ancient oak trees before re-emerging into the clear at the finish. It has two distinct nines converging to form one remarkable 18-hole layout. Begin your round on the Modern nine, winding through native wetlands and Florida's natural topography. The Classic nine is carved through a grove of 100-year old oak trees, creating an enjoyably unique setting for your finishing holes. North Shore Golf Club is located less than 10 minutes from Orlando International Airport and offers a complete practice facility and world-class instruction.

Sheriff patrolling Golf Course

Course was in great shape. Staff was friendly not quite sure why the Sheriff kept driving by and looking into everyone’s carts… He did it on several occasions throughout the game.

First Time Playing

The pace of play is extremely slow

There are no rangers or anyone addressing the pace of play. Which golfers is that to go out there and take their time play multiple shots and I have no consideration of anyone else playing. People play laid off of the star time and it just perpetuates from there. The course was very nice, but this was the worst golf experience I’ve ever had.

Deceptive Practices

On Golf Now they show $99 for the early morning tee times. Then it goes to $50 at noon. HOWEVER, if you read the fine print, THAT PRICE IS FOR 9 holes!!! So the later tee times actually cost more than the early tee times. And, they charge $100 for non residents. The ownership has always been difficult and that is the most favorable term I could come up with. This course is not worth $100 in the middle of the day, especially when it is getting dark early. That is why there are so many open tee times. Please sell the course so more reasonable ownership can take over.

Pre Holiday Golf- improved Course

This course is turning around as it normally does this time of year. Rye grass is coming in thick, greens are improved but are playing slow. Pro shop staff were nice, cart girl was also nice. Pace of play was 3 hours 30 minutes for a foursome. Rate should be cheaper for a course this empty, $60 for tee time 1:30pm is a bit much.

Pace of Play

Great layout and terrific conditions. However, pace of play some of the most challenging I have seen in Central Florida in quite some time. No cart restrictions, perfect weather and 10 min tee times still produced a 5.5 hr round. Long, long time since I have seen that. Talked with staff and rec'd rather passive responses. Others players in the group beyond frustrated and likely to not agree to go back. Shame as it is a nice course here in the area. Slow play has to be addressed.

A Good Day at North Shore

It had been a while since I last played at North Shore; the course is in great shape, and pace of play was spot on. I won't hesitate to go back.

Course condition

This course is always hit or miss. It does not drain well and if it rains any amount, the course will be cart path only and soaking wet. Yesterday we were met with cart path only and the greens were sanded. We were the only group on the course that we could see at 2pm. The course was soaking wet and more than half of the greens had some sort of issue, with either a fungus, patches or just burnt out on the edges. I always say this course is worth $50, but no more than $70 max. It is definitely not worth the $120-$139 dollar range that they will be asking in the next month or so.

Greens sanded today

Course is in descent shape, but greens were just sanded today. Several of the greens were in very rough shape prior to sanding, hopefully this will help out some. As always though, course is fun to play, and price is right. Staff is great and as usual got done in under 3.5 hrs.

Friendly staff snd challenging course

The staff are always great. Very friendly, helpful and make you feel welcome every time.

The course is a great layout with the two nines playing very differently. The front nine has an open parkland resort feel while the back nine has a Carolina low country vibe. It makes for a unique experience.

I have played the course often and conditions are a bit rough. Some greens damaged, some fairways ripped up by carts out on soft ground and some tees on the bare side. Seems to be caused by all the recent rain in Orlando area. Usually the course is in great shape but it is still playable

Overall a favorite of mine in central Florida.

Owner was rude and condescending

I will not support and spend money in a place where I’m treated badly by the owner. I’ve been told by others that he was a miserable person but I have never personally had an encounter with him until today. I will take my buisness elsewhere.

Poor Course Conditions

The course charges $75 for a round of golf. The course was not in good shape at all. Several areas on greens were missing turf. Pace of play was not adequate, there was no ranger on the course either. I would not recommend this course under current conditions. This course has been in great shape before but had fallen downhill in recent months. Will check back in 6 months to see if conditions have changed.

The course is almost unplayable currently. Water has come out of the hazard areas and into the rough and fairways. Lost 3 balls in our group that plugged in fairways and could not be found. Greens are spotty and seem to be having fungus issues.Grass is overgrown due to the amount of water and the course not being able to mow areas. Great course that I enjoy but I think it may be a year before it bounces back.
