Northdale Golf Club
About
Northdale Golf & Tennis Club remains one of the premier Tampa golf courses because of its affordable play, its use of water on 11 of 18 holes, bunkers, rolling undulations and contoured greens that really challenge players. Just 12 miles north of Tampa International Airport, this is a neighborhood golf course with a friendly, relaxed atmosphere that will add to the enjoyment of your day. Renowned golf course architect Ron Garl designed the par 72, 6824-yard championship golf course. Northdale Golf & Tennis Club winds its way through 180 plus acres of property that is home to Brushy Creek and a series of small lakes and unspoiled wooded areas.

Totally impressed!
I have not played this course in years. However, I'm glad I revisited Northdale! The course in excellent condition, you can tell the course maintenance employees have turned this course around. And now with new owners coming in, it's going to be interesting to see this fantastic course get even better.
To Keith, Renee, Karen in the dining room....the starter...everyone was very welcoming....everything was a ten plus!
Its my go to course nice layout
Grass to greens were great.just have to get rid of the water monster that keeps grabbing my balls
Great Value for the Money
As the fairways and greens improve with Spring approaching the course is in good condition. We played on a Friday and pace of play was right at 4 hours. Enjoyed the course and will return.
Getting Better
I stopped playing here for the past 2 years even as it is the closest golf course to home but I've been reading better reviews and Northdale Golf Course conditions have improved significantly. Esspecially the fairways and the approach chipping areas. The greens are decent, different from before when they used to be fast, now a bit slower.
The design of the course is challenging especially where water and trees will push you to hit very accurate shots.
I definitely see improvement and when they get the greens smoother and fill in some of the sandy patches in the fairways the course will be able to return to its past greatness.
It isn't an easy course by any means.
Improving…Keep Up The Good Work
This course has a come a long way; the course itself has been completely refurbished. Tee boxes and fairways are in great shape, and greens are coming back nicely. Bunkers could use some fresh sand. New owners have done a great job so far.
The downsides: we arrived at 3:05 for our 3:30 tee time and there was a massive wait, we didn’t tee off till slightly after 4:15. We had a 4some and 3some in front of us and there were no other 2somes so it was just us and we were waiting at most holes but obviously not the courses fault. Biggest issue was that the carts were coming in and going right back out…our first cart died on 5, our 2nd at the turn, and our 3rd cart was about to die on 13 so we just called it and went home. The practice green is great and undulated, but the rest of the warmup area/net could use some serious upgrades.
It’s clear the new owners have done a LOT of great things with the course, but better tee time spacing would alleviate a lot of issues. Will definitely be back.
Once Again !!
I reviewed Northdale a few weeks ago and nothing has changed. Although its almost 40 miles from home it is easily becoming my favorite course. Unlike most courses during the "season" Northdales rates are very reasonable. Course is in good shape. Greens and fairways are excellent. ALL Staff are so nice, polite, and friendly - all smiles. Specially Renee and Kailyn. Will be back.
A wonderful morning round!
Everybody was right! This course was in fantastic condition. Easily the best course I've played at this price range. I started as a solo, joined a twosome, and we finished in 3 hours and 50 minutes on a Thursday 9:30 tee time. It's plenty challenging. Lots of water and visually challenging holes. The staff was great. I can't say enough about Northdale. The only downside would be that they don't have a driving range. You won't be disappointed!
Awesome turn around
Played here over past few years and up until last fall it was in very rough shape. However since the change of ownership they have done excellent job in repairing the tee boxes and greens. Keep it up and more golfers will return
What a change
I played it last year and there’s no comparison. This year, everything is perfect. Greens are great and conditions are awesome. Only same thing than last year is staff friendliness. Try it and you’ll love it. And at a good price
Great Value, Helpful staff and fun course
This course winds through some natural areas with very few houses overlooking the course. Greens were in perfect condition. At $45 the very best value for a fun and moderately challenging course.
Nice track
Great layout, could use a little more maintenance on fairways. But overall great value for the course
Played fri am
New owners great job now its a .nice course to play
