This nine hole course lives up to its moniker with its secluded, country atmosphere. The course is generally hilly and full of trees. The perimeter of this former farmland is completely tree lined, yet it has open and forgiving fairways. The greens are average in size, half are flat, while the remainder are undulating. The signature hole is #8, a 535-yard, par 5, which plays downhill from an elevated tee to a green that's guarded by a pond.

A challenging course, Jun 26, 2005

reviewer: EqWibbles from Kittanning, Pa

This is a very nice course. They have recently expanded it to 18 holes. Also it is far from traffic and houses. The trees make shots difficult and the greens are no pushovers either. Also the staff is very friendly. I look forward to playing here again.

North Bellingham Golf Course
"Totally worth it!"
For the price they ask, it's totally worth it! It's a great course! There may not be that many trees, but I noticed a few projects that looked like they were working on it, and there is still plenty of beauty surrounding it. Water hazards made it challenging, but all the more fun. Very well kept! The maintenance crew must work hard!

"Great track"
I love this course. Have probably played it as a guest about 8 times and every time I'm done, I can't wait to get back. Played it 2x last summer ('03), when there was a lot of rain out East, and despite that, still enjoyed it. Fairways are among the best conditioned I've ever seen. Greens are in great shape-- and not too big, so you get a lot of makeable putts, but there are a lot of subtleties to them. As for the layout, get your pars and birdies on the front 9 because the back is brutal. One is a straight out Par 5 and you think "this isn't too bad". Get off the tee straight on two. Four is a very good hole. 6 is a sneaky tough par4 dogleg left, and nine is a 450 yard par 4 (blue tees) that gets you geared up for the back. Not a bad hole on the back nine, plus it takes you out of the holes that wind through office buildings and puts you into wetlands. A lot of carry. Par 10-12 and you are ready for 13, a long par 4 with a 2nd shot carry to a green that is impossible to it and impossible to putt. The member I play with is a 5 handicap and he always says--"take your bogey and smile". 14-17 are no gimmes and 18 is a par 4 that demands a 250 yard tee shot, but this leaves you a 170-200 yard uphill approach from a downhill lie to a green that has more break than any other on the course. Clubhouse is nice, but doesn't seem big enough. I've been there on Summer Friday's and it always seems like they need more space. Food is awesome though.
