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.

Fourth hole on the South Course Photo submitted by William4478124 on 02/22/2014
Sucker if you play there
I paid only $45 and felt suckered. Easily the worst course I have ever played and I play over 150 times a year. No grass on fairways, no sand in bunkers, no definition to bunkers anymore. Tee decks and greens are actually not bad. Everything else in between is awful. It is like they are trying to not be a golf course. I am sure it was nice one day and the North looks like a course so they supposedly know what to do, just choosing not to do it. No marshals to keep play moving when people are taking 3 hours a side. Save your money and play anywhere else.
Challenging Course
We enjoyed our round on this challenging course. Lots of sand and some water, too. It was our first time there and didn’t know about the canals on the front nine. Hit some good shots that quickly turned bad.
It would have been nice to know we wouldn’t pass the clubhouse at the turn. There was no beverage cart and no water available on the course.
Great course
Greens are really fast. The south corse is a quality course. I can only imagine how nice the north course is. This is a must play course when you are in the Palm Springs to Indio area.
Terra needs signs
1st time we player here and have a few comments.
No access to the club house for food / drinks at the turn...9th hole. No snack / drink facility along course. ...drink cart had a few sandwiches but only saw it once. Cart path directions were confusing on several holes. Carts were limited to specific areas and would shut off. We were never told of this feature or how to correct it. Lastly...there was no layout of the course greens. Usually found on the score card or hole marker. Other courses provided GPS map with the carts.
Terra-Lago
Good course…little scratchy in places…
Will be back!
South course
Fairways were in terrible shape. Greens ok but hard, nothing would stick. No opportunity at turn to get to clubhouse (cart restrictions, way too far to walk), so no snacks or drinks. No one mentioned this during check in. Gentleman working check in was absolutely rude and miserable to everyone I watched having to deal with him.
North course for same price is night and day better shape.
Love the course, but not so much the course Marshall
We teed off with 2 wonderful gentlemen and were really enjoying our day until the 6th hole.
The Course Marshall came by and in an unpleasant manner, said that we were going to have to speed it up because he said that there were 21/2 holes empty in front of us!! I guess the 3some behind us called the clubhouse saying we were slow. The 3some were long hitters and each had their own cart...what???
How can they say we were slow when we played the front nine in 2hrs & 7mins and we finished the game in just over 4hrs. The course Marshall obliviously didn't have his facts straight.
Is it because there was a woman in our group? The woman actually scored better than 2 of the men!
We've travelled here for 15 years and played this course a lot and have never been told that we were slow.
About the course...we played there a couple of weeks ago and we saw great improvements. The bunkers had sand and the rough is greener...nice change from last time.
The pro shop and cart staff were very friendly, but I only gave "staff friendliness" 1 star because of the rudeness of the Marshall.
Very poor cndition
The poorest presented course I have played in the valley, fairways and greens average but rest of course very poor.No rakes in traps which in itself makes good golf really difficult.
Charged 25 dollars just for my wife to ride on cart.
Cannot compere to North course which I believe is well presented.
This course is not going to get you to return, go to another venue.
Basically good
Greens hard and fast, as expected.
One sign was turned around so we had to backtrack to find the tee.
South Course is in terrible condition
Played the South Course in a terrible wind, lots of cancellations so played single. This used to be a very nice course, not no more. Conditions are terrible with a great deal of neglect and underwatering and no overseeding. Do not book it unless you get it for $20.
Not so good
Views from the course were excellent. Pro shop not friendly; had to ask him twice how to get to carts. Nobody at bag drop. Had to find someone to get a cart. As a single, starter put me out early which was very nice. Course had many hidden surprises; no advice from starter, no GPS , and no course guide/book. Greens small and hard to guage from the fairway; good speed. Fairway grass was good in spots, not good in others. Front 9 was fast; back 9 was over 2 1/2 hours; no marshall.
