OK for a quick round

This is a short course )Par 66) with no par 5's and mostly short par 3's and 4's. The greens and fairways were not in great condition with many bare spots. If you're looking for a quick round and to work on your short game it's OK.

Nice Little Course

This course is just right when you need a little golf. It's challenging in spots but not overly so and can be enjoyed by most any skill level. No bunkers, but a fair amount of water and some tight fairways. It is an executive course and not super long, only 4500 from the tips. I was on and off in a little less than 3 hours. Shot an eagle on 17 so that was a great bonus. I will be back!

Great value

Although a short course with no par 5’s it’s a fun course and great short game practice. Staff is very friendly. Not of championship quality but priced right and easy to get tee times.

Par 3s & 4s with a wacky layout.

This course is very tight and you need to watch for incoming balls. The back 9 is especially wacky, if you don't know where the next tee is, don't be surprised. You'll need to ask for directions.

The greens had a lot of sand, so maybe in a few weeks with some rain, they be in better condition.

Twight rate starts at 2:30, so if you must play go after 2:30.

Work in progress

Each year I play the course improvements are going on. Some tee boxes need to be improved, such as the level of the ground, sloping, uneven ground. A little pricey for the length of course.

Fun Course

Very friendly staff greeted us and got us on our way. Course a little damp on this day. Fun to play. No sand, but frequent water hazards. Many par 3’s and 4’s but no par 5’s.

Good beginner course

This course represents good value for money. It has no sand traps but several water hasards. The fairways and greens were in good condition. It does not have long par 4 and 5. and can be played within 3 to 3.5 hours depending of the crowd.

North River Shores

It was raining in Stuart when I left home, but it was dry at The Shores of North River. I was able to start play right away and had no problems. New Management is doing a great job in updating course and everything was in greay shape considering how much rain we had in recent days.

Good short course in dry weather conditions

I have played this course several times. The reason is simple, it is a short course, from the white tees 4161 yards. It affords some challenges because of water and bunker placement. It can be played in a shorter period of time than a full size course. It has 6 par 3's and 12 par 4's, so unless you hit your drives 300+ yards you can use your driver often and get close enough to the hole to get a lot of practice with your short game. The reason for my low rating is that when there has been some rain for a couple of days … I recommend going to another course for a few days because there are drainage problems on this course. It was very wet when I played it on almost every hole. The staff is great and very helpful.

Lovely small course for beginners

I played this course for the first time today. The course layout was fine, greens conditions were fair. Definitely a good course for beginners and part time golfers. I do not recommend experience golfers playing this course. The price was cheap, so was the experience

Perfect weather Slight breeze!! No Waiting!! YEAH!!

Was able to get started ahead of my tee time. Course looked great, but where were the golfers? Ohhh!! I caught up to a threesome, two were playing golf, it appeared for the first time. They were gracious and waved me through. From then on I had not one other golfer(s) ahead of me for the entire round. However, the grounds crew was busy working on the course, specifically the greens.

I was a beautiful day and winds were relatively non existent!!

I played ok, wish I had done better! All in all a great day!

It’s a Beautiful Morning!!

Perfect weather, not a perfect round!! Warm, sunny, breezy and not too humid!! Course Conditions for the most part were great!! However, some soft muddy spots still existed even though drainage has been greatly improved over the last several years!! Unfortunately, some greens had been top coated, which hampered my putting! I was pleased to see that the fairway stump on 10 has been removed! I don’t know how many times it “stumped” me during the years I’ve been playing here. Seems like any obstacle in my view is like a magnet for my ball!! LOL!!

Pace of play was wonderful until the 12th hole when I finally caught up with the crowd that was having an outing or group play? I joined up with another single golfer and we enjoyed a slower pace but at least we could converse when we had to wait for those ahead of us!! However, I still finished the round in two and a half hours!!

Great day......wish my score would have been better!!
