John's Island – North Course
Vero Beach, Indian River County
Course Overview
The North Course at John's Island is a Pete Dye design playing 7,102 yards with a rating of 74.5 and slope of 140 — the longest and most demanding of the club's three championship courses. Dye's architectural theatrics are on full display: dramatic bunkering, forced carries, and strategic water hazards that demand precision on every shot. It's one of the finest private courses in Indian River County and a bucket-list play for serious golfers.
Fairway Conditions
Elite private club conditioning with Dye's signature design elements. Bermuda fairways are impeccably maintained with strategic shaping, deep bunkers, and water hazards. The longer yardage and higher slope reflect a course that rewards accuracy and course management. Conditioning is immaculate year-round.
Why I Love This Course
â Alex Haigh
"Pete Dye designed three courses at John's Island, and the North is the one that demands your full attention. At 7,102 yards with a 140 slope, it doesn't give you anything for free. But that's the beauty of a Dye design — when you hit the right shot, the reward feels earned in a way that stays with you. I've walked this course with members who've played it hundreds of times and they still find new angles and challenges. That tells you everything about the quality of the design."
