Frequently Asked Questions

When is the absolute best time of year to play South Shore Golf Club for ideal conditions?

We always tell our friends that late April through early June, or September into mid-October, offers the sweet spot at South Shore. You'll get comfortable temperatures, lush conditions, and avoid the peak summer crowds and their higher prices, making for a much more relaxed round.

How challenging is South Shore Golf Club for an average golfer, and what should I prepare for?

South Shore is a fair test, but it definitely has its teeth, especially if the wind picks up off Lakeview Bay. You'll want to be precise with your irons to avoid the strategically placed bunkers and water hazards, particularly on the back nine. We recommend playing from the appropriate tees-don't be a hero, and you'll have a much more enjoyable day.

What are the must-play holes or signature features at South Shore Golf Club that I shouldn't miss?

You absolutely can't miss the dramatic par-3 14th, which plays directly over a finger of Lakeview Bay to a well-guarded green-it's a real test of nerve and a fantastic photo op. Also, the finishing stretch from 16 to 18, with its subtle elevation changes and views back towards the clubhouse, is a memorable way to end your round.

What's the typical green fee range at South Shore Golf Club, and do you feel it offers good value?

Expect green fees at South Shore to be in the mid-tier range, typically $80-$120 depending on the season and time of day. We genuinely feel it offers excellent value for the quality of the course conditions, the stunning lake views, and the overall enjoyable experience you get here.

Beyond the course, what's the vibe like at South Shore Golf Club's clubhouse or 19th hole?

The clubhouse at South Shore has a welcoming, relaxed atmosphere, perfect for unwinding after your round. Their grill room, 'The Bay View Bistro,' serves up solid pub fare and has a great patio overlooking the 18th green and the lake. It's the ideal spot to grab a cold drink and recount your best shots-or lament your worst ones.
