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.

I think the course has potential... But it's in rough shape.
The course has a nice layout. Unfortunately it was really in rough shape. Tee boxes, fairways and putting surfaces all a mess. It's disappointing, because it could be nice. It appears it's not being taken care of.
Bad pace even on a wednsday
Well most of the reviews are correct. Horrible shape like they really don't care.Most greens have dirt and sand on them. No grass mostly hardpan in the fairways and the rough. I had the distinct pleasure to be stuck behind 2 old ladies who hit the ball about 100 or less yards every shot and then looked for golf balls in the water or the woods never once looking in my direction or saying go ahead and play through. Expect 5-6 hours no ranger and awful. cow pasture-like conditions. I cannot stress how bad the course is I don't have enough words. This used to be my home track about 10 years ago. Very sad at the conditions I will not be back for another 10 years. Good Luck if you play it!
Very disappointed in the condition of course. Tee boxes and greens were in very poor condition. This course was a favourite in the area. No longer.
The staff, as usual, were very helpful and pleasant to deal with. It is unfortunate that the course has been allowed to deteriorate so much.
First and Last Time Here
Very poor conditions. Not enough grass for the fairways. If you were on the green you were always having to reposition your ball to try and find a line you could putt only on grass. The whole course needs a good bit of TLC to get back to how it should be.
Excellent layout never felt like hitting into anyone
Course was in good condition for February in Florida winter rules on the greens and fairways. Challenging par 5s and par 3s but make able very nice and friendly staff would definitely play there over and over. Thank you for a great Florida golf day hope to be back soon...
Northdale
The staff were very friendly. The issue was though the parking lot was not crowded. It appeared that everyone took off between 12 and 1 o’clock. In that context it was extremely backed up. Our teatime was at 12:48. We were only able to play 13 holes.
Rusty review of Northdale Golf and Tennis
Very average golf course, not in good shape, Fairways were spotty, greens splotchy and rough condition. Course could be a decent place to play if in good condition.
Pro/con
Course was reasonably priced and the place of play was great. However, the course over the past several months has gotten worse. They are working on it, the fairways had large spots of sand, and there was a few greens which were burnt. The course overall needs work, which they are doing. The course layout though, for me, is fun and challenging to play, overall it was a good round.
Coming back
The course is coming back into shape. You can tell that management has started to invest more money into the course. Great tough course to play.
