About

Holes 18
Type Private
Par 72
Length 6443 yards
Slope 125
Rating 70.4

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.

Great course.

This was a very enjoyable course at a great Clubhouse staff is extremely friendly and the greens were in perfect condition. 19th hole with exception everyone is friendly. I want to give a special shout-out to the general manager Jim Musick. If I lived in Florida near the Tampa area I would definitely get a membership at this golf course

Obvious work being done on tee boxes and fairways. They also have a membership drive so you can be a full member at a decent rate. Once they get to 750 they may go full private again

Course was in good shape fairways green and soft, some bare spots off the fairways and around the greens as to be expected during the dry season. The greens were awesome as usual. My favorite greens in Tampa Bay area.

Didn't hit many greens on the fly , but the ones I did loft was needed to hold the green.

Great Value

Played today and was pleasantly surprised. The course has gone through some financial difficulties recently but, it has come through it and is better than ever.

The price is great and the conditions wonderful despite very little rain and their money problems. In addition, nobody is out there. It was one of those dream rounds (3 hrs) on a beautiful course.

Bravo Temple Terrace.

A course for members and better players

This is a very tight course. Immediately surrounding that tightness is roads. Busy neighborhood roads right against the course. I'm talking a constant flow of cars and people walking, etc. A powerfully hit slice or hook is going towards a house, car, or person. This course is for a higher skill level or elderly people that don't have power behind their shot. My main issue with my round however was that there was a members league going on. There was no mention of this on golf now. For all I knew I was showing up to play 18 holes of golf. For my 4pm tee time it turns out I had to start on 2, play until 5:10, skip ahead to 10, then after I finished 18 go back to 10 and could make up the remaining balance of my 18 by playing back nine holes again.. OK.. not exactly a smooth relaxing 18 holes of golf.

Great Golf for the Price

Temple Terrace is a well established course with some of the best green conditions in Central Florida, Course is pretty straight forward with exceptions on several holes including 16,17, and 18 when you get a real feel for being somewhere other than flat Florida.

Fast Greens

The greens were really fast and not grainy like a lot of bermuda greens. It is a very old course, par 3s are not easy. Not a lot of grass in fairways. A lot of roads run parallel to a lot of the holes.

Single with speed

Greens in great condition for the time of year .fairways were just as high as the rough . Played at 8 am and was 50 degrees out so was a very fast round as a single. Finished in 2 1/2 hours . Overall 4 out 5 only because there was no rough to speak of but probably because of the time of year. Would go back

OK course

Nothing special. Greens were average. Tees and fairways were poor, possibly due to season. Very flat front nine.

Great find

I really enjoyed the round. The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. There isn’t a driving range but the hitting area to warm up is good. The greens are certainly the highlight and made the round that much more enjoyable. The layout is great as well. The fairways had some bare spots and that’s the only reason I didn’t give 5 stars . Will definitely be back

Old Florida

While some opine that this course has seen better days (built in 1921) I think that the best is yet to come. The course is populated by mature oak trees and is pleasing to the eye. Not a lot of water hazards but well placed bunkers, fast greens, and shaggy rough will test your skills. The food in the clubhouse is good pub food and the staff is friendly. On the down side, some of the bunkers do not have enough sand, yes me and my group found the sand on occasion, and there is no starter. You may find yourself behind a 5-some of members that may or may not let you play through. My experience on two of times it happened to me was that they played ready golf and my group was able to complete our round in a reasonable amount of time.

Florida vacation

The entire staff at Temple Terrace country club were very acvomdating and pleasant from the pro shop to Jason the attendant that greeted you after the round, and offered his suggestions of other courses to play in the St. Petersburg area which was in fact my final destination. Greens were especially good, fairways still in less than ideal condition but overall an enjoyable round of golf.
