Terra Lago - South Course

A very tough front nine on this desert layout in Indio.


Hole 15 - Par-4

Formerly known as The Landmark courses, Terra Lago is basically the same club house and golf courses, it just now has homes and a hotel on property and a new owner.

It still has 36 holes of Championship golf in a nice desert setting, and both are very challenging for any level player.  The front nine of the South course is especially challenging because there is a water channel that lines some of the fairways making the tees shots a bit scary.

Even though I don't always play as well as I would like there, I do like the fact that the holes are designed where you have to think on almost every shot, especially the tee shots.  Many holes don't just offer a clear fairway in front of you, but rather a strip on the left or right of a large waste area or some other hazard.  As much as I love to just get up and blast one down the fairway, I also like when that's taken out of my control and I need to put Driver away and maybe use 3-wood for a safer position.


Hole 4 - Par-3 - 201 yards

The par-3's also give all levels a good challenge.  Most have raised greens with severe drop-offs so accuracy is key.

My suggestion is to bring extra balls, and come to have a good time and don't be stressed if you pump one into the brush, because you probably won't find it.

The Summer rates are excellent whether you are a resident or not.  Depending on the time of day they could be $30.00, includes cart. The In-Season rates are higher but fair for this club.
