Tarandowah Golfers Club
About
Tarandowah Golfers Club has a unique layout that closely resembles traditional Scottish links golf courses. There are undulating greens and sloped fairways that are made up of bentgrass and wispy fescue. Although there are no water hazards, Tarandowah Golfers Club boasts more than 100 deep, sod-faced bunkers that prove to be just as challenging if not more. Strong winds blow through the golf course, a factor that will affect your game if not careful. Tarandowah Golfers Club has several tricky uphill par 4s, but its longest and one of its more challenging holes is the par-5 14th, which stretches to 588 yards.

Well worth it
Phenomenal golf course, great price, great staff. Exceptional experience
Course management key
Good course. Gotta keep it in play, otherwise you'll never find your ball.
Ok but not great
Great layout. Great greens. Tee boxes level but chewed up. Whole course could have used a little tidying up in grounds conditions. Expexted more for price.
Pace of play
Front nine was excellent under 2 hours got to number 10 3 groups on tee and no Marshall anywhere in sight to keep things moving very slow foursome in front
Links Style with a Twist.
This course is one of my favorites. Smart play around this place will net you good scores. Keep it in the fairway and play smart rewards will follow. The staff here are incredibly friendly and very knowledgeable. If you are in the area, play this course!
Great layout.
Some challenging holes. Need to keep it out of the fescue.
Tarandowah
Great course although it can get dry real quick in the absence of rain.
Great deal via GolfNow.
Super hard course.
This course is tough. It's a links course, so it's super windy, hilly, and has tons of bunkers. The staff are awesome. I just think the green fee is a bit much. That's the only thing stopping me from playing there more.
Horrendous
I have been playing this course for over 15 years and it's present condition is by far the worst I have ever seen it. Sparce grass on the fairways leads me to think that little or no fertilizer was used. Greens were aerated 3 weeks ago without being top dressed and this has led to greens being of varying speeds. I was very disappointed in thee overall condition of the course
Tarandowah mid week play
This course is everything it is reputed to be in terms of a true to Links style of play. The course is hardened earth, fast and windswept on most days. On the rare day When the wind is down you have to take advantage because they are few. The greens are grainy in the spring which can add to the challenge.
I have played here since it’s opening year and it never disappoints.
Great layout. Poor conditions
Course layout was nice but the conditions were not great. They also didn’t let us know that carts were not allowed. So I only could play 9 holes with my bad knee. But paid for 18. They wouldn’t give me a raincheck
poor greens
Course was good but the greens had been aerated and not top dressed or cut. Made putting impossible.
Tarandowah
Had a great time playing here. Considering the time of year the greens were pretty good. The greens were firm and quick. The fairways and tee blocks could use some attention. We were there on a super windy day so we got the full links experience. I was able to get a hot deal so it was fantastic value. I am tempted to go back later in the season to see how the course plays under prime conditions.
