About

Holes 18
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.

Not good service

Slow to move clubs to cart area. No carts available for quite a while. No tease in the golf cart no sand in the golf carts. Upon return from golf, no car pick up, had to carry our clubs to the car ourselves.The check-in guy was extremely grumpy.

Bad issue with carts

We arrived at the course at 12:45 for a 1:30 tee time. We wanted to hit balls at the range. However, they did not have any carts available. The workers were a bit overwhelmed and said they would shuttle us to the range. But there was not a plan in place with the shuttles and we had to jockey for spots going to and from the range. Not a relaxing way to begin the round. Inexcusable not to have enough carts.

Mixed review

The course is in awesome condition. Client Services left a little bit to be desired. No one to trolley our bags from bag drop to the lower level where carts are located.

Upon check in was greated by grumpy old guy behind the counter who pretty much chastized us for using GolfNow to book our golf round. We have experienced this before with him. After that experience we travelled down the stairs to the cart area. No carts available. We were told they were all charging. There were approximately 15 people waiting and the frustration with them as well as us was evident.

We purposely arrive approx 30 - 45 mins before our round to warm up etc and to ensure we arrive at starter ahead of schedule.

The starter was awesome with lite humour.

I will golf here again because I love the course but client services leaves a little to be desired.

No seed pods for divots in the cart and no tee’s provided.

VERY NICE COURSE FOR THE PRICE

Played yesterday with two of my brothers and a local they paired with us. Local was great. He lived on course, so he had lots of local knowledge.

A very nice course. They charged us a local rate which was much lower than what was advertised so that was a great start.

Course was in very nice condition with quite a few scenic holes. Greens were a little slow but in very nice shape. Pretty forgiving fairways but if you stray into the desert, it can be tough to find or hit your ball. Pace of play was excellent. Finished in less than 4 hours.

Some hills and definitely not a walking course. Staff very nice. Would definitely play again.

Too slow

The course says it 4.5 hours with no enforcement and that's just too long. We could not finish the last 3 holes. No value in that.

Great course

Outstanding course and great bang for your buck. The 4some in front of me, however, was playing for their men’s league so they were evaluating EVERY shot, examined every putt, and made sure to putt out everything. Long round because of them, but the course was spectacular

Nice Round

I have played both the North and South courses recently and while the North has traditionally been the better of the two, I feel the South course is in better shape and offers generally nicer views. I’d play both again, but if I had only one to play I’d play the South at this time.
