Rating 71.4

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.

The GUY in the PRO SHOP...

The Non-Gentlemen at the Pro-Shop acted as if he didn't want us to be there because I guess we weren't light enough and we weren't members... Your suppose to treat guest as if they are members so they may want to join! He told us we we only allowed to play once a month thur golf-now and we didn't ask him for that information. He stopped us at the tee box to make us pair up with someone after he gave us 3 keys, met us in the bar after 9 holes, drove on the course at #12 to tell a 78 year old man in our group that he's to close to the greens after he told him he needed a flag because of his handicap... I'm sorry there on Golf-Now because I've been using your wonderful service for a number of years and you guys have been great but this NON-GENTLEMEN has placed a bad taste in my mouth and I know nothing will be said about this but I wanted you guys to know that's how they treat non-memebers or was it just a simple race issue since we were 3 African American Guys paying $15 dollars a piece to play a private country club!

Great Layout.....But Temp greens.

The layout is an old school layout with many doglegs and tree lined holes. It was a fun golf course even with temp greens. Cant wait to get back and play after greens are fixed in August.

Wish had previous knowledge of 18 temporary greens. Must say they were better than some normal greens I have putted on. The course was in excellent shape and challenging. Would play again.

Disappointed

Until the course's major construction is done they should limited play to those who want to play and know the course's condition. Otherwise, they are disappointing others by foolery. When the course is done, then it WILL be nice to play on.

Greens

All the greens are closed, but the temporary greens worked fine. We used the 2 putt rule. If you were on the green the most you would score was a 2 putt. I was lucky and chipped it in on 10 for a eagle. No putting required.

no greens

When I purchased this time and when I checked in no one said anything about the greens being completely torn up...they just cut a very small patch of the fairway in front of the green short...cut a hole in it and called it a green...also piles of fertilizer lined every fairway...when the course is put back together it may be a nice course but for right now I would not recommend it to anyoneI may have had a better experience if I was notified prior to purchasing or at least before I started my round of the conditions but I was not in there for quite disappointedalso we nearly had to push the golf cart back to the club house because it ran out of battery life

Beware! Wait for the New Greens.

I booked a tee time but didn't notice that the course was using temporary greens. Shocked when I found every green gone. Each hole was 30 to 40 yards shorter and had a closely mown area with a cup and flag. Yardages were tough though most shots into these holes were with wedges. I didn't bother putting! Pro told me they expect the new greens to be ready in August. I suggest you wait until then.

Want my money back!

Rude front staff and members, no starter on a Sunday morning. Members playing skins game off tee hitting 2 tee shots each again on a Sunday morning. Course in pretty bad shape A lot of dirt no grass off fairway. Sand traps need sand. Course about to get greens redone and they do need it! Beautiful layout. If they only had a decent greens keeper and someone taking charge up front. Had a member practicing off the side of 10th fairway. When I got over rise there was 50 balls in fairway. Never found mine amongst members balls.

Play it again, awesome deal

We played TT for first time; they paired up my wife and me with two singles who were good guys to play with. The course is in excellent condition and is a lot of fun. Very nice driving holes. Greens were in good shape and very very fast. Fairways are excellent. We considered this round a terrific deal and will go back as often as we can.

Old School Course

Very interesting course to play - meanders through old community, street traffic driving by, joggers, walkers - has a park-like setting. Don't worry, there are plenty of old, towering oak trees to keep stray shots from going off the course. Nearly 100-yr old course - interesting course architecture - the way golf was played years ago. Lots of greenside bunkers. Greens were in very good shape. Some fairways were worn down to sand in some places - but otherwise an interesting, challenging course unlike many of today's FLA courses.

Great old style Florida Golf

The course is your good old style Florida golf course. The tee boxes and fairway were in average condition, which is normal for this time of year. The greens looks a little rough, but rolled true and were very quick.
We paired up with a member on the back 9 and enjoyed the course more with this commentary and history of the course while we played.
There is no driving range, just some matt's w/a cage, so don't come expecting a good warm up.
Well worth giving a try, but I understand that after the member guest next week, they are tearing up the greens to replace them, so you may want to hold off on the round until the fall, depending on how fast they get them done.

Course was in good shape, and the layout was fun. Front 9 went very quick, on the back 9 ran into a number of groups who weren't on the front 9. Bottom line we unable to finish our round.

Great Course Conditions Weather was a bit frigid

What great shape the course was in. The fairways were plush and the greens ran true. Only drawback was it was soooooo cold for Florida. That took a bit of enjoyment out of the round. Carts were great and souped up and pace of play could have been a bit better but will definitely be returning.

GREAT COURSE!

I played this course for the first time, at the recommendation of a golf buddy of mine. I was pleasantly surprised at the layout and overall course quality. This is a challenging course nestled in a suburban neighborhood. The greens rolled great and the fairways were lush, even in winter. The history in the clubhouse is amazing since this is one of Tampa's oldest courses. Well worth the time.
