North Bay at North Bay Golf & Country Club

North Bay Golf & Country Club stands as a testament to enduring community spirit, carved into the rugged landscape north of Lake Nipissing. This mature parkland course, dating back to the mid-20th century, presents a classic test shaped by the region’s rolling terrain. Fairways are generous, allowing for aggressive play, but strategic bunkering and subtle elevation changes around the greens reward thoughtful approaches. Doglegs feature prominently, favoring players who can shape their shots and navigate the mature tree lines.

While not a major championship venue, North Bay holds a special place for golfers in Northern Ontario. Originally designed by Robbie Robinson, it has evolved over the years to provide a challenging yet accessible experience for players of all skill levels. The membership reflects a blend of generations, united by a love of the game and a deep connection to the club's traditions.

Locals affectionately recall stories of friendly rivalries and impromptu matches that have defined the club’s culture for decades. Post-round gatherings often revolve around the clubhouse grill, where the atmosphere is as inviting as the scenery. North Bay Golf & Country Club offers not just a round of golf, but a taste of Northern Ontario hospitality.
