Detailed description of Golf Club at Terra Lago, South Course
Golf Club at Terra Lago, formerly Landmark Golf Club, is a Public, 36 hole golf facility located in Indio, California. The facility has two 18 hole courses, they are The North Course at Terra Lago and The South Course at Terra Lago.
The courses opened for play in 1999. They were designed by Landmark Golf Company.
Constructed in a desert links-style design, both courses feature hilly terrain. The narrow, rolling fairways open to ample greens, offering slight undulation and subtle breaks.
The South Course __________
The South Course features one of the most unique and memorable holes at The Golf Club at Terra Lago. Hole # 2 is a narrow par 4 that runs along a wide canal making anything hit to the right impossible to play, as you approach the green you must cross this canal. Rather than a traditional wood bridge, the designers decided to add a little flare to the experience by creating a bridge from an old rail car. This hole is affectionately known as the “Box Car” hole.
The par-72 South Course measures 7,044 yards (Rating 75.1 / slope 140) from the championship tees, but again with 4 sets of tees to play from players of all skill levels can find their game. The South Course measures 5,045 yards (Rating 70.9 / slope 128) for women and the forward tee boxes eliminate many of the forced carries required from the other tee boxes.

Anytime a course is not well maintained or are having issues, "that's NOT good". Let me start over by saying this course is a GEM. But I'm not sure what the course's challenges are up against because both the North and South course's holes on its southwestern part of their properties are struggling. It's been like that for MANY years now, and they can't correct it. It isn't so much that it is not playable, but it's just an eyesore after eyesore on those holes, and you wonder what you just paid for as you go by them. The good news is that it gets better the rest of the holes. We love both the North and the South course of Terra Lago, they are equally fun to me. Most people would prefer the North, yes it's pretty and good, but the South is just as well. There are some holes that you may find your self up top of a hill tempting you to drive the green (ahhh...), par 3s that are just to kill for in the way it's set up, long par 5s, bunkerings in strategic places, but be ware of the junk. There are holes you may apply power, but NOT all of them. Great tracks. . . Enjoy them!

The fairways will never be in good shape. And you cannot read the greens.

My wife and I played early in the morning. The pace was great,views great, but the wind was also great.
