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.

Great Course - Especially for the Summer

This course was a real treat to play. It's been hard to find greens in good shape in the area during the summer in the desert. These greens were really solid for the end of July. They were very hard to read and fast, making for a great challenge.

The course is beautiful and right in the mountains, some holes you had to cart uphill a good bit to get to the box! I got a great price and had a blast out there. I highly recommend.

Nice greens

Bunkers were under repair, but otherwise course was in good condition. Greens were quite nice for the summer. Nice layout with some challenging holes. Would definitely play again.

Terra Lago

As in all of Palm Springs this time of year, the fairways were a off with the extreme heat. The greens were a little slow (heat), but consistent. About what you would expect mid July in the area. I would play it again.

This place used to be really nice

Had 6:10 tee time. Started at 6:05. Front nine was great. Conditions were ok. Some tee boxes were horrible. Played front nine in 1:30. Great fun pace. Back nine started well, then we ran into all the slow groups that were sent out on 10. This only benefits the course because they make more money. This is HORRIBLE MANAGEMENT. This ruins the golfing experience. We left after 15 holes. Not worth waiting in the heat. Thanks for nothing Terra Lago; we will never be back. TAKE YOUR MONEY ELSEWHERE. Don’t play here unless you like subpar conditions and waiting.

About time

This place has been jacked up for a while really been avoiding it even though it's my home course. Thanks to the superintendent and their crew greens are the best in the desert for summer so if ur out here now in July or August play here. better players will be challenged from the tips.

Too slow with no services.

We quit after playing 16 holes in over 4 1/2 hours. Would have taken over 5 hours to play the whole course because of the group in front of us. Askd a Marshal to speed them up. He talked to them at the turn. They ignored him and we never saw him again.

The experience was even worse because 2 of the (I believe) 4 water stations were broken or served up only hot water, there was no cart service and it was 106 degrees. Hard to stay hydrated.

Best Conditions this Summer

Course was in exceptional condition. Best greens we have seen in summer in the desert in years! Loved it. Only issue is that the staff is less than welcoming. Pro shop guy seemed more interested in his online solitaire game than helping us. Water/ice dispenser was not working either. So… bring lots of water, expect to be ignored, then go play a great round at this fantastic track. Bravo to the greens keepers.

Good Layout

Course was in very good condition. Some pretty tight and uphill holes but overall very nice course. Some of the holes had flags positioned in very difficult spots, right on a slope and some of the greens played very firm and did not reward good approach shots. I had about 4 or 5 wedge shots land almost in the middle of the green and they would roll off the steep slopes of the greens. Definitely a course that takes a few rounds to understand where to hit your shots. Would play here again for sure.
