The Golf Club at North Hampton offers a traditional Scottish links-style course right in northeast Florida. Designed by Arnold Palmer, the layout meanders through dramatic elevation changes of over 40 feet and ten spring-fed lakes lined with coquina boulders. Sprawled across rolling hills and wild grasses, the golf course is sculpted from beautiful Florida woodlands, offering a round that is as scenic as it is challenging. The Golf Club at North Hampton's hard-to-read greens are massive and move very quickly. There are also tight fairways, many of which feature blind approaches. To make it even trickier, strong winds often sweep through the course, some even reaching a speed of 30 miles an hour.

One of Arnie's Best

We have enjoyed this course many times over the last two seasons. A good test for us, and very good shape, even in the dormant grass season. The greens are very tricky and some local knowledge is a big help. Staff is great, food is fine, service is very good.

Nice big greens

1st time playing this course, we had passed it a lot as we played different courses on Amelia island. Back 9's a lot prettier than the front. The greens are fast & large with lots of undulations. I was disappointed with the fairways as they were very tight & bare. But we'll be back, when the fairways are better. Also there were to many blind tee shots, that ended up in ponds as the scorecards or tee boxes don't have a map to show you the problem areas as I'm used to seeing playing other courses.

Solid course!

One of the best courses I've played in north Florida! Each hole varies greatly in layout and design, not your typical flat Florida course. Decent change in elevation, challenging hole layouts and green placements.

Some fairways are a little blind as you move down the hole but I found nothing to be an annoying surprise. Some fairways were a little tight but nothing too excessive.

The bunkers were nice, a good mix of difficulties throughout the course. Fairways and greens in excellent condition.

Staff was super friendly, much appreciated.

Tees and fairways in great shape as well. Staff friendly and no problem with pace of play today. Great warm up areas. Will certainly be back.

Friendly Staff

North Hampton has a lot of great features. The people working there were very friendly. The course is in great shape, but be prepared. There are a lot of bunkers and water. Bring some extra golf balls.

I'd go back

Played with friends that had played this course before and wanted to go back.

Very interesting and fair golf course. The back nine is more fun with more interesting holes. Greens were in great shape and fairly quick.

I will go back; great deal at the GolfNow price.

Must Play Course.

I have played this course a number of times. If you are in the area and you love golf, you need to play this course. If you're not hitting well bring extra balls, you will need them.
