About North Shore Golf Club

The North Shore Golf Club sits just off the Trans-Canada Highway 11/17 on Golf Course Road, nestled between two mountains in the valley below. The nine-hole public course provides a tranquil yet engaging experience, with fairways winding through forested terrain and a layout that offers variety and challenge for golfers of all skill levels. From the black championship tees the course measures roughly 6,500 yards, with a mix of par 3s, 4s and 5s totalling par 36.

Founded in 1960 on the site of what was once a dairy farm operated by a local family, the North Shore Golf Club combines local heritage with recreational appeal. It was incorporated in 1961 and in its early days featured sand greens, before switching to full grass greens, a transformation that helped set the stage for decades of golf under Northern skies.
