About

Type Public
Par 72
Length 7060 yards
Slope 137
Rating 73.7

The Golf Club at Terra Lago boasts two 18-hole courses, the North and the South, that provide some of the most stunning and unique views of the Coachella Valley. Formerly known as Landmark Golf Club, it was home to the PGA Tour Skins Game from 1999 to 2002, which meant it has hosted a slew of big-name players including Greg Norman, Tiger Woods, and Phil Mickelson. Terra Lago's North Course is the longer of the two at 7,060 yards, which is partly a reflection of the dramatic elevation changes that the golf course tumbles across. From the seventh tee box's lofty perch, you'll get a panoramic view from one end of the valley to the other, making it the golf course's most scenic hole. But it's most challenging is a daunting par 3 with an island green that was the featured hole during the Skins Games.

One of my favorites

Love the layout and the course conditions. This course is not only a great track it has beautiful views. The only annoying thing is the cart shut downs anywhere within 40 feet of a sand trap.

Great for the value

This course used to host the Skins game wear Tiger Woods, Fred couples, Greg Norman all played. The course has definitely aged and the upkeep has declined a bit, but paying under $50 with a cart was a steal. The greens roll true and the layout is great.

Great all around

Played the North course and my wife and I loved the course. We had a 7:20am tee time and played right through the front 9 without waiting one time. But, the pace did slow down on the back 9 but we still ended up playing the round in about 4 hours and 30 minutes. From the friendly staff, the conditions of the course from the tee box to the green to the scenic course, we had a great time. Lots of elevation changes which made it even more challenging. Winds were blowing really strong when we played which added another element to the round. Overall, we would highly recommend this course.

Decent course

Nice layout, short course for the ladies, but played longer due to the elevated greens and many sand traps. Only disappointment… the greens were very SLOW!

First Visit

I was looking for a course that truly lied in the desert and Terra Lago certainly fulfilled it. The course was in great shape and greens were also excellent. The only thing I had trouble with was the speed of the greens, having played at another desert course where the greens were slow. The layout is beautiful, taking into consideration the desert topography. Looking forward to returning now that I've had a chance to play the course.

We will be back!

We loved the course. Loved the elevated tee boxes for the par 3s with blind pins. Course was challenging, it enjoyable. Staff was great and plenty on hand to help you with your needs. Greens rolled true, fairways were wide, and endless views of the mountains. Loved it and we will be back!
