Opened in 1922, Temple Terrace Golf & Country Club is one of the oldest courses in the Tampa Bay area. In fact, it's the only 18-hole golf course in Florida that's listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It's the centerpiece of the Temple Terrace community and it's much loved by locals. At 6,443 yards from the back tees, the golf course is short by modern standards but what it lacks in length it makes up for in other challenges. The layout has a traditional design with small greens and tree-lined fairways that demand accuracy. Several strategically positioned bunkers also come into play along the greens. There are some tight spots and a fair amount of tricky holes, but overall Temple Terrace is player friendly enough for all skill levels.

Poor condition but the greens were excellent

Course very tired around the edges and layout was pretty unremarkable. It runs through an urban development with roads running parallel to most holes. If you are looking for a picturesque course in great surroundings then this is one to avoid. Greens were in great condition but super fast. No range and no chipping area (only nets). Sorry but we would not be back.

Good value, conditions were ok for winter/spring golf

Seems like they could have put more seed on the course. Fairways were patchy greens were just aerated (not mentioned when booking) but were still pretty smooth. We played preferred lies. A course of this caliber should have better fairways, but still enjoyed the course and will play again.

Easter Sunday round at Temple Terrace

By far the best part of my 12:20 round on Easter Sunday was the pace of play. Played our round in just about 3 hours, not sure if that’s due to the day we played being Easter but it was great. Course was in average shape, most bunkers were hard pack so not ideal but fairways and greens were standard. Got this round in a hot deal so solid price but probably wouldn’t pay more than I did to play here.

Found the course to be OK. It was a windy day but the fairways are very generous. The bunkers were unplayable - the sand was completely hard packed. The greens looked good but the speed was inconsistent. The layout was not super interesting.

Terrific Temple Terrace!

Check in was great - 60 degrees and sunny. Light breeze 5-6. Pro Shop was helpful being a first timer.

The fairways could use some more grass but the Greens were rolling very well. Tee boxes were good.

No cart girl on Tuesday. Jeff the cart guy was johnny on the spot! A cold beer at the end of a great round outside on the patio is a must. Patio overlooks #1 and the putting green. Thanks TTGCC!

Different than most Florida courses

This was a really enjoyable course. The course is different than most Florida courses in that water really only comes into play on one hole. The tee shots are not challenging, but the greens are very small with many bunkers, which makes for some very challenging approach shots. The course is extremely picturesque and I loved the course in general.

Everything was in pretty good shape. Bunker sand was a touch heavy, greens had a couple of spots here or there, and it was sometimes hard to tell where fairways started and ended. However, for the price (I paid $57 after taxes/fees), I felt this course was a great value for the money.

Great layout

The greens were very slow, compared to recent times. #7 green, is still not in great shape.

Everyone had to play a shortened #1 because of a festival on the leftside of the hole.

Bendelow challenge

Had a great day at Temple Terrace. Staff and members really friendly. Got paired up with a lovely couple from Upstate New York which made the game even more enjoyable. Course is not too tough but is laid out well. Only one real water hazard made for a pleasant change from usual Florida courses. Lots of shots to tree lined fairways and some tough dog legs. Overall in very good shape with greens especially good. Highly recommended

March 6th Experience

Wow, what a fun day on an historic course I learned a lot about from wonderful, professional employees (in the clubhouse and while playing the course with an employee and his dad).. The greens were phenomenal, as was the layout. Lots of variety! Can’t wait to get back there again next February/March, bringing others with me. Truly an enjoyable experience in every way.
