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.

Fun course
Really enjoyed the course. Greens and tee boxes are in great shape. Amenities were closed because we played on a Monday. Was a little on the pricier side for what it was, but overall we enjoyed it.
Spring Training
Found this course using Tee Off.com. Even though it took us an hour to drive to this course, it was worth it. Friendly staff, even bought carts out to the parking lot. As described in the writeup, the course is mostly flat but that was fine as we start a new golf season. This is a very playable course with little trouble other than the traps around the greens. If it wasn't for the drive from our temporary lodging, we would make this our home course while we spend the month of March in Florida.
Pleasantly surprised!
My 1st time to play here and we all know how weekend play can be in Tampa. S L O W, but not here. Shhh! Well 1st off we were greeted by a cart as we pulled our car in at 12:12 for our tee time was 12:30. There was a super nice gentleman that said that there was no rush but the starter wanted to get us right on out since we were there. We teed off at 12:24 - no wait! We caught the group in front but pace of play was 2:10 on front nine and 2:00 on back. Course was in pretty good shape and the greens firm and fast. Pleasant afternoon golfing with my so in law! Recommend this course for sure!
Fun flat older course, excellent greens, not much water in play. Finished in 2.75hrs. Slower players let us pass.

Nice wide fairways. Good condition. Greens ver fast
Great old school type course.
Love this place!
Second time playing here with my dad and we both love it. Both times we have played we finished in around 3 1/2 hrs. The course is very playable and has smooth fast greens.
Old Homestead
Really enjoyed going back home. Celebrated Thanksgiving here years ago with my brother and his wife. Thoroughly enjoyed being back there for a nice quiet Monday morning round of golf. Staff was outstanding pro shop and cart keeper. Course was in great shape and pace of play was perfect
Very enjoyable and fun
Great course! I felt the price was a bit steep but not crazy. Considering it’s February/peak season and that fact that it’s basically a glorified muni course. That being said, I really liked the course layout and conditions. Not terribly difficult but you still have to think before taking many shots and the greens are in incredible shape and quite fast with plenty of undulation. I look forward to coming back and would highly recommend.
I'm green with envy!
The greens rolled true, consistent and every bit of 10+ on the stimpmeter....wish my home course would take a lesson.
Tempted at Terrace
it's always a must play. learned the punch shot here.
Very good greens, good conditions for this time of year
Staff very friendly and courteous. Played with member that was also friendly and helpful. Conditions were better than last year Greens were fast and receptive. I will definitely play again.
Historic course, poor value
We paid $75, in my opinion the course is worth about max $45 for a round. Staff were very friendly and pace of play was nice. Course condition was okay. Not a very interesting track, but if you want to get a round in it will do. Just not at $75.
Greens very good, course good
Greens were fast and receptive. Overall in good condition for this time of year. People were friendly and let me play through quickly.
Staff were extremely friendly. Will play again!
1st time playing here
Was met in parking lot by young gentleman with a cart. Offered to load my clubs. Checked in early, pro shop offered to get me out early. Paired me with 2 others, had a great time.
Old course, well maintained, saw damage from hurricane. Greens were very quick and rolled great.
Will definitely play again.
