Rating 75.1

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.

Potential is there

Played a GolfNow “Hot Deal” for $58 and had an enjoyable day. My perception might have been different had I paid $100+. Fairways & greens were fine for the most part. Lots of unfinished and waste areas beyond the rough. But maybe that’s by design? I would play again at $60

Desert golf

Hole layout would be nice , maybe on the scorecard or at each hole, course is in beautiful condition, maybe the best green I’ve ever played. Can’t wait to try the north course.

A bad day for slow play.

The course had a tournament going and some of the staff was very busy. The starter was trying to manage both courses at the same time. It took over an hour to get through the first three holes. Needless to say it was a disappointment for my guest and I.

Desert challenge

Desert views from elevated tee boxes are spectacular - course condition good, and a real challenge. Missing the desert waste land is a must ! Enjoyable outing.

Best value for $$ on teeoff. Good course at a very reasonable amount. Quite different from other courses we played and the starter let us our early or we may not have finished.

Staff very friendly

The course is now in good condition except for a few fairway bunkers on the back 9. There’s lots of sand in the desert, so let’s replenish the bunkers please! Otherwise the course is a great value among Coachella Valley courses — especially because there aren’t any houses that come into play. The workers are very friendly.
