History
In 1883 James J. Hill, known to be The Empire Builder, purchased a 3,070-acre piece of land from Charles D. Gilfillan. This piece of land Hill named the North Oaks Farm. When Hill passed on, his son, Louis W. Hill inherited much of the land. From here the Hill heirs took over and maintained the land. Fast forwarding to 1950, more land was bought and the planning process began. Stanley Thompson began work on designing the course. It officially opened in the summer 1951. Shortly before it had opened, a “hurricane” hit. The storm caused two holes to be flooded. North Oaks Golf Club became an official private golf club in 1953. The term and process called a shotgun start, was first used at North Oaks Golf Club. Although it was incorrectly credited three years later to a course in Washington. Fast-forwarding even more to the year 2007, Lehman Design Group renovated the course. They fixed particular issues while mostly sticking to Thompson’s original design.
