Exciting Changes Ahead

About the Transformation

The North Shore Golf Course is thrilled to unveil the first completed phase of its transformative $7.5 million renovation, with the Back Nine reopening on July 19, 2025. Led by course owner The Puyallup Tribe of Indians, this extensive project brings cutting-edge enhancements to both playability and the overall golfer experience.

The first phase includes a newly installed state-of-the-art irrigation system, redesigned green complexes, expanded teeing areas (including forward tees), and reimagined bunkers—all of which now define the Back Nine. The 17th hole has also been reworked from a par 3 to a par 4, increasing the Back Nine’s par from 35 to 36 and adding exciting new strategy to your round.

Expertly Guided Design & Construction

Under the guidance of Puyallup Tribal Enterprises, this renovation combines the visionary design of renowned architect Dan Hixson and the skilled craftsmanship of Ridgetop Golf, an industry-leading, locally owned contractor. Dan Hixson is known for notable projects like Wine Valley GC, Silvies Ranch, and Bandon Crossings. Ridgetop Golf’s extensive portfolio includes premier courses across the Pacific Northwest and Western United States, and they have been recognized by the USGA for their work at Chambers Bay.
