North Shore Golf Course
About North Shore Golf Course
North Shore Golf Course sits along the Intracoastal Waterway near Sneads Ferry, on North Carolina's Topsail Island coast. Designed by architect Bob Moore, the layout works the property's existing natural areas into a routing that follows the surrounding coastal marshland, with holes playable for both newer golfers and more experienced players.
The inland holes provide shelter from the prevailing sea breeze and are lined with tall pines, giving that stretch of the course a different character from the open, water-facing holes.
