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.

Course in Great Shape!!!

Course was in great shape. The course was really empty maybe due to holiday.

Starter would not allow my group of 4 to go our 20 min because we book on Golf Now. No one even showed up so tee times were empty, but didn't get to start our round early with storm coming in... other than that good day spent with friends.

Great Golf Course

My son and I played yesterday and the course was in perfect shape and the pace of play could not have been better. I enjoy playing this course because it is very challenging, especially from the tips which is where we played. I need to put it on my rotation more often!

Great layout

A fair test to the average golfer greens were a touch slow on the front but roll well. What I like about this course is every hole is different great variety of holes!

Late Round

It was my last day on vakay & I wanted to play after spending the day on the beach with spouse. It was late (5pm) so I didn't know if they'd allow me to finish 18. Called, but no answer. Left a message. Tried to book online, but no success. Golf shop called me back & said to come on out. Didn't catch up to anyone until 15 so finished with ease. Wonderful course! Great layout! It was in fantastic shape! It was as nice as the Omni for half the price. It's not on the ocean, but the scenery is very beautiful. Lots of water, trees, bunkers, elevation changes & vegetation to contend with. It was a little difficult to know where to hit on some holes & I got a little lost between a couple holes since it was my first time playing. Lost a couple balls in hidden hazards so playing with someone with some course knowledge would be a plus, but I really enjoyed the round.

Slow Greens, but would recommend course.

This was my first time playing the course. Add to this that I was having a hard time finding my swing. These two factors added to the challenge of the course. I liked the layout and would like to play the course again. The greens were very slow, but in nice shape. This is an overall nice course that looks a little neglected.

Great time!

We played here for the first time yesterday and had such a great time, came back today. The course is in great shape and fun to play. Lots of interesting holes, elevation changes, large greens, bunkers and water. Pace of play was great, 3 1/2 hour round. The entire staff made you feel welcome. We will definitely come back and play again!

Helpful and accommodating staff

Course was in generally good condition. Greens were a little firm but rolled true. Cart paths were dry and very dusty which was unpleasant if following other carts. It would be nice to have some paving. Pace of play was on the slow side. But, all in all, I would definitely play it again.

Worst shape in years

Have always loved this course.

We drive an hour to play it and I play it at least 4 times a year

It’s the worst I’ve seen it in the 5 years I’ve been playing out there.

To be fair it has been raining a bit. But the greens are covered in poana and the fairways aren’t much better.

OUCH!!! Challenging course that I could not rise up for the occasion. Greens fast and true. Course layout is good and accuracy rather than distance is critical for decent scoring and avoid 3-putts!!!
