Terra Ceia Bay Golf & Tennis Club

Great place to work on your iron play. You can't let the big dog eat if you're long. Greens could use a little more loving. Love the new carts. Great place to play for the money.

You can tell the grounds crew has been trying very hard, there was a lot more grass on the course than I expected for this price on a Saturday morning! The greens rolled predictably, tees were wonderful for the most part. Add a beverage cart and update some of the landscaping and this place will look great!

We played here last year and liked it so we came back and were not disappointed. Everything was great, just like we remembered it. Great staff right from check in to departure. Brand new GPS golf carts were a very pleasant surprise. The clubhouse is clean and has great facilities. Fairways were a bit dry in a few places and a few weeks on the greens, but nothing that impacts play by any stretch. Thoroughly enjoyed Terra Ceia Golf and if we are in the area, we would definitely play it again.

Price is extremely high right now for an executive course. Pace of play is slow, the starter is rude and the greens are in really bad condition (putting over weeds that cause your ball to bounce around). That’s not always the case for this course though. I’ve played here a lot and it’s typically a great experience. Can go play a lot of better courses around the area for cheaper and better conditions right now

This is a must play short course in Manatee County.

Fun vibes to chip and pitch around. Friendly members all having a good time and enjoying the round, drinking and rocking out. Scratches the golf itch but don’t expect to bomb any, nice for what it is- a shorty course. Back 9 greens are rough but still navigable. Check it out, esp if you have a beginner with ya.

My only complaints would be regarding the greens. They were extremely slow, and many of them seemed to have weeds growing on them. Also, most of the greens were quite small, and some of the pin placements were ridiculous. A couple of the pins were only 5 feet from the fringe. Good value for the price, though, and a very pleasant atmosphere.

Staff was nice, weather in Palmetto is often beautiful, but the greens, especially the back-9, where terrible. Borderline unplayable but oh well. Still not super upset, its cheap as heck, but maybe up the prices a bit and fix the greens?

I’ve played this course a few times but, haven’t played it in about six weeks. It was in descent shape previously but, was in awful condition this time. The tee boxes and fairways were either in cut or Han no grass at all. The greens were hairy with crab grass and burnt out sections. I paid $40 for an afternoon tee time and that was over priced. As someone who works at a Troon owned golf course I would say the owner of this course has given up on maintaining it. It’s a shame, I just can’t recommend this course

Have played this course twice before. Staff is great friendly and courteous. Love that times are always right on. Never have to wait. Pace of play very good. Will enjoy coming back to play again.

Welcoming staff, full amenities, new carts, and the course played great. Tight but fair fairways, and some nice longer par 3’s made this course play tougher than on paper. Challenging holes and we did use every club in our bag as Warren, the starter, noted we would. Pace was good and made for an enjoyable 3-3.5 hr round, never waiting or feeling pushed. Some tee boxes could be moved (whites are over worn on some holes) as well as several greens on the back nine not matching the great condition of the front 9, but our threesome from Pinellas enjoyed this course and will be back soon! Bring water balls… lots and lots of water balls!

Lunch in the clubhouse restaurant/pub overlooking the course bookended this wonderful morning on a picturesque Florida course.
