Wow

This course was stunning. The greens were super challenging after an insane two weeks of rain. Very humbling. The staff is incredible.

Magnificent View

This was therapeutic for me and my friends. The course was very well maintained. We thought we were walking on turf the entire time. Challenging greens! Highly recommended.

Must Play!

It's everything you think it might be. Packed in so much into such a little space in the best way possible. Haven't walked a course in 15 years and this was so much fun. Maybe only need 4-5 clubs tops. Would be an amazing location for a skins game with some golf buds! Staff is next level courteous for someone used to slumming it at the local courses => As long as the weather forecast is nice their couldn't be a better spot to play!

All Good Almost

My wife and I came to play, we were greeted nicely, starter was very kind, and play was going great. We then got to the 8th hole where the ground keeper was working with his machine on the green. By this time, it has to be 9am. He didn’t move until I teed up. I hit and the. My wife was getting ready to hit, he saw her, and then, got on the green and continued working. My wife is fairly new and I know this made her nervous. He did not move until she was near the green. This made me pretty upset, but I bit my lip. I’ve never even seen this on municipal courses, pretty disappointed and this will take a lot of time for me to get over before I think about playing here again.

First time at Terranea.

We played here for our anniversary. We normally play 18 at our club, but this 9 hole course was a gem. Terrific scenery made it very relaxing. We finished in just less than 90 minutes with hardly any wait on a Saturday. The prices were a little high for the course and walking carts, but that goes with the location. I highly recommend this course for the experience.
