Rating 75.0

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.

Wish It Was Closer to Jacksonville

One of my favorite courses in the area. Everything is always top notch from the course to the staff. Could play here everyday and not get tired of it due to challenging layout. GPS carts are a lifesaver. Only con to this place is the 45 minute drive from southeast Jacksonville (Beaches area)

A very enjoyable course - don't miss it

I really enjoyed my round from the black tees. Requiring every shot in the bag , the layout is demanding and beautiful.
Conditions are excellent. I can see why North Hampton is one of the top ten courses in Florida . I could play it every day and not run out of challenges and enjoyment .... Check it out if
You can as you will not be disappointed

Worth the drive to play

This is not your typical flat Fl course. Greens have multiple tiers. Make sure you stay below the hole to avoid tricky downhill putts. Terrain has alot of elevation changes.

Play the right tees for your handicap.Lot of water and marsh areas. Get the ball in the fairway. Don't need driver on many of the holes.
Would play again.

Great course, but slow play

This is a difficult course for most golfers, so pace of play can sometimes be an issue. This course used to be frequented mainly by very good golfers, but the course was changed a couple of years ago to make it easier. It's still difficult, but now gets play from a wide variety of golfers, and this has slowed down play at times. The course is in excellent shape, greens are fast, scenery it beautiful: it doesn't get much better than this. Just plan on a five-hour (or more) round, and if you beat this, you're ahead.

Always a great round

We booked an afternoon rate and for the price we received a great bargain. The course was in great shape. The greens had been Aeriated about 2-3 weeks prior but the rolled smooth. This course is always challenging and well worth the price.

THIS COURSE IS IN EXCELLENT SHAPE

Just enjoy playing at Northampton, even when I do not have my A game.
The course even though recently aerated was still a great track to play on. The fairways are excellent green and professionally mowed. The staff is friendly

My new #1 course in Florida

Reminded me a lot of Pinehurst. The course, especially the back nine was flat out awesome. Lots of elevation changes and turns and in pristine condition.. I have played some top of the line private CC's but this was as good or better than any of them. What a great day of golf. We lucked out and had the front nine to ourselves but they put a bunch of foursomes ahead of us on the back so we had to go way around and play the last 3 first and then the first six. Didn't hurt that we got a great price from Golfnow.
