About

Type Public
Par 72
Length 7039 yards
Slope 139
Rating 74.4

Despite its Hill Country setting, Teravista Golf Club has more of a links feel, with wide-open fairways and casually rolling mounds. About 60-70 white bunkers spot the layout, and water comes into play on 14 holes. No. 17 is the no. 1 handicap, playing a long 443 yards from the tips. The hole bends left toward a kidney-shaped green that is surrounded by three bunkers. Teravista G.C. offers a beginner-friendly tee box that plays only 3,744 yards, making it enjoyable for any skill level. The National Golf Course Owners Association has dubbed this 18-hole Clifton-Ezell-Clifton design a "Beginner Friendly Course."

Windy day at Terravista

Terravista has always been a course I enjoyed playing. It's open layout is really affected by windy condition's. The day we played it was very windy and very challenging but enjoyable. The greens were putting well and the fairways are typical winter condition and very tight. Pace of play was about average there and is always a little slow. The group in front of us hunted balls on every hole so we had a 445 hr round and the course wasn't crowded. The bunkers need more sand as the drainage mat is exposed in many bunkers. Overall it was still enjoyable even with the cold and 2 or 3 club wind. I've played there for years and will go back.

Dead fairways in winter

First time playing at the recommendation of several friends. Priced similar to Avery, but I prefer Avery. Dead fairways in winter is depressing, although Avery does this as well. Course was otherwise in good shape.

Enjoyable round in January

Played here mid week on what might be the last warm day in January in Texas. Course is looking good, greens are rolling nicely. Fairways are well maintained but maybe getting a bit thin in some areas. Bunkers were a bit wet from recent rains, so pay attention to the condition of the sand before hitting your bunker shots. Great course for mid and low handicappers, can be tough on the high handicaps or if you don't carry tee shots and approach shots (several shots require a carry over water/rough/bunkers). I always enjoy the challenge of this course, and play off about a 12. My Dad (72) who plays off about a 20 finds it too difficult due to the types of shots required (bump and runs are punished frequently with bunkers!) High handicap will likely enjoy Star Ranch or Bluebonnet more. I'll be back again soon, but not with my Dad! Course can play very long with north wind and playing the tips will give you a solid challenge any day of the week. I've played this course since it opened and it is growing in nicely with trees now and greens have matured quite a bit as well.

Rushed!

I arrived 45 minutes before my tee time as I like to hit a small bucket and putt a bit. I was told I'd be paired up with 2 others to make a threesome at the designated tee time. I was doing my usual no rush routine to get warmed up. About 20 balls into a small bucket, an employee approached me and said "The tee box is open whenever you're ready". Still 20 minutes before my tee time and haven't been informed of the other two being ready or present. I just saw a twosome go off about 8-10 minutes prior and if I was going to play as a single, I mine as well wait a few more minutes or I'd catch them on #2 anyway. Then I see another single driving to the tee box. The employee says "That guy's going out as a single". I felt like this was a statement made for me to join him.

I actually enjoy meeting new golfers, so no biggie. Twosome in front of us shouldn't be that bad, right? We play the first hole without issues and head to the next. We get to the 2nd hole's tee box and see the twosome standing in the fairway. We have to wait a minute and then tee off, wait for the 2nd green to clear and then hit our shots into #2 green. Finish #2 and drive to the #3 tee and BOOM....severe backup! The twosome in front of our twosome was waiting to hit their tee shots. Two guys on the green taking so much time you'd think they were putting to win a major. We played two more holes before being caught by a single, so we ended up making a threesome.

What I discovered through conversation was that each one of us had the same exact tee time, were told to go off the first tee whenever we're ready and eventually met up with one another anyway. With 3 carts to boot!

It made no sense and would have been much more enjoyable if they would hold people to their tee times and allow gaps that would allow someone to get into their groove and not have to wait 5-10 minutes between their shots. We got the tee time for a specific time, if there's a big gap between our group and the last group then so be it.

What I think is they want everyone to tee off as soon as possible in order to get the carts out and people on the course in order to close the pro shop and go home as early as possible.

I paid to play 18 and could only tolerate 9. Good thing I made that decision because I could see the blockage on the #10 tee box and fairway, #12 fairway and green, #13 tee box, fairway and green all while driving home.

This isn't the first time a round has gone down like this at this course. It was a weekday afternoon round, so I can't even imagine what it's like on a weekend morning round.

As a Teravista resident, I'd consider a membership at this course if it were more organized.

I've never seen a marshall on this course and it desperately needs one.

To Teravista staff:
FIX YOUR BUNKERS, THEY'RE TERRIBLE!

Have had the same "rushed" experience at this course. Pro shop is reluctant to book a single; not sure why this is. Have been told they will just work you in and will not put you on the tee time list. Also, agree that the sand traps/bunkers are absolutely dismal! Cannot for the life of me figure out why they will not put some decent sand in them. So tired of seeing hard pack in what should be a good course feature. Sand should be relatively cheap to install, so why not do this??? A little attention to details like the two noted here would no doubt go a long way!

Almost...

The course layout is challenging and there are a few intimidating tees that test your confidence. The greens were good on the day I played, holding well and rolling true. However the sand traps are the worst I have seen. Maybe it was the heavy rains a week past? They were hard pan and full of fire ants, and most had lining martial exposed in common collocation areas. The club house is nice and the on course cart person was extremely pleasant. The only thing that stops an above average rating is the sand trap conditions.

Teravista great, except...

Teravista is arguably my favorite course in central Texas. Historically, the conditions are great and the greens are fantastic. The design is tough but fair. The only drawback is recently the bunkers have become virtually unplayable. Many of them have no sand left in them, with the base fiberglass-type material sticking up through the bunker. It's simply horrendous that a course of Teravista's stature would allow the bunkers to devolve into what they are today.

Course was in good condition except for the bunkers...which were terrible. Would not recommend this course until bunkers have real sand instead of pebbles and dirt.

Slooooooowwww Play

2.5 hours to play 9 holes of golf. Marshall set a 3 group tourney in front of us, one group on each of the first 3 holes, 2 man select shot scramble, no one had tee'd off 20 minutes before them so course was wide open. We were a threesome with a beginner, by the time we got to the 3rd hole, the twosome behind us was already waiting, by the 5th hole, the group behind them caught up to us also. We were waiting 10 minutes or longer on every tee box after the first hole. Never saw a Marshall and will never waste my time going back there with expectations of getting anything more than disappointed. Unfortunately, the Hot Deal that I made on line turned out to be a sour deal, it was like paying full price.

Very Good Value

Teravista is a very nice, very well maintained course. The practice area is excellent and the staff are extremely friendly and accommodating. On my Sunday round I only had to pay $45, just an incredible value for how good the course is. I played 36 holes in only 7 hours, so pace of play was excellent as well. The carts have gps, ball/club cleaners and are in very good condition. I highly recommend Teravista. It is buy far the best value in the Austin area.

Great layout in really good shape

Fun course to get out there and crush driver. Still get to use almost every club in the bag. Driver placement is important and tight on some holes which makes the course a good challenge. Greens in great shape. For the most part houses lining course but they aren't crowding fairways leaving that concern out of your mind!

Teravista

Teravista is a fun course to play. Its in good shape, it has just the right length, doglegs and water holes. What really makes Teravista interesting is the greens - they are fast and you need to take an extra moment to read them.
The issues; a) bunkers need sand! they are like concrete and b) pace was too slow! I only saw a marshall once.
I would like to play the course again - but it would need to be on a weekday.
