Golf Club At Terra Lago - South Course
About
Formerly known as Landmark Golf Club, the Golf Club at Terra Lago was the host of the PGA Tour Skins Game from 1999 to 2002. The club's impressive guest list includes Greg Norman, Phil Mickelson, and Tiger Woods. There are two 18-hole courses available called the North and the South. At 7,044 yards, Terra Lago's South Course is just barely shorter than the 7,060-yard North Course but they are equally challenging. The South is known for having one of the club's most unique and memorable holes, the par-4 second. This narrow hole runs alongside a wide canal that makes anything hit to the right impossible to play. The unique part of the hole comes as you approach the green. To cross the creek, rather than having a traditional wood bridge, the course designer crafted a bridge from an old rail car, which explains its nickname as the "Boxcar" hole.

Golfer Reviews
Recently opened after overseeding, fairways and green are in great shape.
Traps don't have much sand and very hard, just stay out of them.
Overall a good value considering the ridiculously increased prices of other courses we have played in the past.
Nice course, slow play
5 hour round, no Marshalls. Last hole two foursomes got together and played 8. Took almost 25 minutes, otherwise course is in very good condition.

Course was in great shape. And the staff we extremely friendly. However the pace of play was 54mins longer than was is expected (5+ hours). They offer a purchase for at number 9 and they will bring food to you. Don’t fall for this, we didn’t get our food until hole 15 and it was cold. If they fix these things I would gladly play again.
South Course - AMAZING!
What a fantastic venue for a little tournament my club had there. The course was in outstanding condition from tee to green, with well-maintained fairways, smooth putting surfaces, and a layout that provided both a fun and challenging experience for golfers of all skill levels.
The staff was welcoming, professional, and attentive throughout the event, helping ensure everything ran smoothly from check-in to the final putt. The pace of play was excellent, and the course setup created plenty of memorable moments, competitive opportunities, and great views along the way.
The combination of beautiful scenery, challenging hole designs, and first-class hospitality made this a venue worthy of championship-level competition. Our players consistently commented on the excellent course conditions and overall experience.
Thank you to the entire golf course and staff for helping make our tournament a tremendous success. We look forward to returning in the future and creating even more great memories on this outstanding course.
3/5 Stars for Terra Lago
South course front nine has a lot of rough areas off of the fairway - the back nine seems more established and more scenic. Preordering food on Hole 8 turned out to be somewhat of a disaster, since we had to leave the course after hole 9 to go pick it up at the restaurant, where disorganization ruled. It took a good 15-20 minutes to make our way back to Hole 10, where there were now three groups trying to tee off.
We got a deal through GolfNow, but would likely not choose this course again.
Desert layout
Some interesting holes on the front nine but otherwise not memorable. Greens and fairways were shaggy after overseed and carts would constantly “shut down” even though our foursome respected restricted areas indicated on GPS🤔

Staff very friendly. Great conditions considering time of year! Hope you have a great season as well are back to snow in 🇨🇦 😊⛳️
Value for the money?
No ball washers. Placement of cups frustrating-seems like more often than not cup was very close to bunkers. Condition of bunkers (very few rakes) needs some help. No water stations. Bar cart didn’t show up until 15th hole-quite thirsty by then. Value for the money? I probably wouldn’t play there again.
Fun Course
First time playing the South Course. Not long from the Whites, but lots of strategic ball placement. Some brutal small turtle shell greens on the par 3s with deep bunkers surrounding. Fun though! Best to play a second time so you know the danger areas and improve ball placement
Terra Lago South.
The course was in excellent condition. Fairways were nice and greens smooth. It has recovered nicely from recent overseeding. The onlynegatice thing I can say is that access to several greens were hilly and difficule for someone who is slightly handicapped. I have played this course several times, aand I will definitelycome back again.
Terra Lago
Enjoyed playing with two professional golfers whom travelled to Coachella Valley for seasonal golfing work. The course was in great shape with newly seeded turf and greens were little bit hairy but reasonable speed. One thing disappointing was that the group in front of us played incredibly slow and nowhere to find marshals.
Challenging but Fair
This course has bounced back nicely as it was on a downward trend a few years ago. It is in good shape. The only negative was the pace of play. 5 hour round.
This ciurse has a unique layout as it has a canal that goes right through the middle of the course. This makes for some unique holes that cross the canal, and some narrow fairways. This is a links style course with desert native areas that you definitely want to stay away from. The course has good elevation and a couple of elevated tee boxes.
Other than a 10 on the first par 5, I had a decent round. 44-41-85 from the gold tees 6400 yards.
