Temple Terrace Golf & Country Club
About
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 conditions tee box to tee box
course in great shape but in these hot and not even summer yet days the lack of drinking water is a big minus and when you get to some you need to pay 3 dollars for a bottle and if you do not have cash you are stuck for another couple holes. Pro shop needs to warn players who may forget from last time they played course but I do love the course
Wonderful course.
It's a short course, but well layed out. Would definitely recommend this course.
Great greens
Fairway are in good shape and the greens are excellent.
If you miss the fairway you will find yourself on hard bare dirt with grass clumps here and there, (bad stuff).
A few holes have rough that is grass. So you pay a stiff
price for missing the fairway. Pace of play was great.
( 3:15 ). Very challenging; small greens and doglegs
left and right. Will play again for sure.
Best greens in town!!!
Old style course. Not too much water. Fun layout. For the drought we are having, these are the best greens in town. Can't beat the Deal Times $15 ($20 with fees and taxes). I will definitely make this one of my regular visits.
Beautiful surroundings and well maintained
Feels more old and real than most golf courses in Florida. The whole area has a bit of a European feel to it. Good value.
Play it
The course is in the middle of a busy neighborhood with roads and cars passing by all the time. Fairways are tight. Greens are quick and in excellent shape. Glad I finally got to play this historic course.
Enjoyed It
Love this course. Traditional layout. Greens were terrific.
Overall excellent!!!
First time playing this course. Booked on Golf Now. Showed up , checked in with no hassle. Fairways and Greens were in excellent shape!! Greens rolled perfectly!! I am a 10-15 handicapper. First time playing this course and shot an 83. I will be back
Great day
Had a great day....played with newly met friends....staff very friendly and helpful.....members seems polite and friendly...course in great shape compared to local courses....greens lightning fast but smooth and true.....absolutely will play again next time in area
Temple terrace
This course is pretty long for most seniors. There is only 100 yds.difference between red tees and senior tees. It has to be very long for most women
golfer friendly
very niece fairways,and great greens over all fun day.
First Time
I got confused as to where the next tee was sometimes as this is a course that has over time had parts of the City grow into it.
The course was forgiving of mistakes which matters to a poor golfer such as myself. I shot my best round of the year here (unfortunately I don't get out as much).
Would definitely come back again with the right deal, the everyday price is a bit high. The club house is beautiful and I want to see more of the place.
Beautiful trees and fast greens
Celebrated Easter Sunday with 18 holes, great pace on front, back nine was ok. Course was in good shape. Playing as a twosome many courteous golfers let us play through with no hassles. Greens were very fast , nice relaxing traditional design. Look forward to playing again.
Not your typical Florida course
This is one of Florida's oldest courses. The layout is basically medium to narrow fairways with giant oak trees lining both sides of the fairways. If you keep the ball in the fairway, a good score is easily attainable. Put it in the oaks and it will cost you strokes. The course was in excellent condition. The fairways were green and had some give to them. The greens were well maintained and the ball rolled true. Very few fairway bunkers and water only on two holes and even on those holes it only comes into play with a poor shot. My biggest criticism is that all the holes look alike. The only difference is the length and a few are doglegs. I would have preferred a little more variety.
lots of trees
Nice layout with very nice greens.
Lots of trees. The bad part is the "Bunkers" would be much better with real sand instead of dirt.
My new favorite place
Evidently this course only recently began allowing non-members to play. This may be my new favorite course in Tampa. Tee boxes, fairways, and greens were fabulous. Lounge area, including outdoor patio set-up, superb. The only knock on this place that I could see is there is no practice range.
Outstanding! played in the afternoon. 3.5 hrs. for the round; no waiting and no one pushing us. Excellent value. Will definitely play again.
