Golf Club At Terra Lago - South Course

Course is ok. Temperatures were near 100 degrees and there were no cups available for water and ice to stay hydrated. Ice machine at snack bar was broken. Unacceptable for a golf course in the middle of the desert.

Very hot 37 degrees. Very dry and dusty, poor to non existent cart path directions around the greens, lots of driving between holes, no shade on this links style course.

The greens and fairways are in pretty decent shape.

Staff was friendly and helpful.

Great day playing golf

Golfed both south & north courses & each were in great shape & challenging. All staff members were friendly & welcoming. Well maybe I should add that the gentleman checking us in wasn’t so welcoming on both occasions. Maybe he has some health or stress issues.

Water features and plenty of slopes add to the challenges at Terra Lago South. For this time of year, March '25, the greens were slow, so one needed to be more aggressive on the pace. Fairways were a little thin in places but generally provided good lies. Bunkers look very scraggly and have inconsistent sand. We tee'd off at 1:30 behind a full field so it was a 5 hour round. Fortunately, the weather was perfect and we enjoyed our round.

Pace of play really needs to be monitored on the turn to speed groups up.

We arrived about 25 minutes before our 11:20 tee time. No one could be found for us to check in. After inquiring at the bar we were told that the person responsible had stepped away, probably to the restroom. After nearly a 15 minute wait, he finally showed up, so we now had 10 minutes to our tee time. Another person was also waiting and it turns out that we were paired with them for golf. We waited a bit on first hole and then noticed a log jam on #2 tee. We finally teed off on second hole a full half hour after our 11:20 tee time. We discovered that there was some “official” junior amateur tournament immediately ahead of us (Toyota Tour Cup). We were not informed/warned. Our round took more than 5 hours to play, and Terra Lago is not a long course. Wouldn’t do it again. Probably should have left before we teed off on 2, but a ranger said that the pace would pick up after that hole.

We played in plus 90 temps and only the water station at the clubhouse had water and ice. All water at the other stations were very warm. The ice cooler on the back was broken. I find it odd that they would not have working coolers considering the temps.

We played the South course yesterday. We have heard that the Nirth course is prettier and has better views, but it was not available the day we chose.

This course is super challenging. Narrow fairways on many holes, lots of bunkers, and some channel water.

The biggest negative for the two of us is the bunker situation. There is very little sand in most of the bunkers, and others are just crusty hard mud and grass. Very, very tough if you are playing the ball where it lies.

Also, the sides of the fairways really don’t have rough. It is just hard pan mud with vehicle tracks in most of the areas, and some desert areas in others…which those areas are nice.

We probably will not play the South course again, but may try the.North.

Awful. Areas off course look like a toxic dump. Rough is awful and the fairways are spotty at best. Greens suck. Poorly mowed with a giant ridge from bad mowing all over the greens. No. Water stations until the 12th hole. Cart girl, didn’t even stop. Absolute the worst golf experience ever. Smelled like sewer. Stay away. Not worth 1/2 the money. They should be ashamed.
