Indio, CA
The Golf Club at Terra Lago North Course is the marquee layout at a stunning 36-hole desert oasis in Indio, California. Located 10 miles from La Quinta and about 25 miles southeast of Palm Springs International Airport, The Golf Club at Terra Lago North Course is a draw for golfers from all over the Coachella Valley and beyond. Like its sister layout, The Golf Club at Terra Lago South Course, the North is a highly varied and challenging championship test built by the design duo of Lee Schmidt and Brian Curley in 1999. Both eighteens are immersed in the natural desert landscape of the Indio foothills and largely free of course-side housing. Though Schmidt and Curley?laid out the playing fields with professional golfers in mind, The Golf Club at Terra Lago North Course receives more play because golfers find it easier and more fun than the South Course. Many local and traveling golfers also want to take it on because they know it from television. From 1999 to 2002 The Club at Terra Lago North Course hosted the PGA Tour Skins Game that was an annual tradition at Thanksgiving Weekend. Tiger Woods, Fred Couples, Greg Norman and Phil Mickelson were among the competitors who dueled it out here for big money during that four-year period. The North Course is known for its elevated tee boxes, dramatic elevation changes, blind shots, slick false-fronted and dramatically undulating greens, and, most of all, for its signature island-green par-3 15th hole. You’ ll find short holes and long holes (the 5th and 6th are back-to-back par 5s), tight holes and wide tests. The 14th, 15th, and 18th all are routed around (or in!) a lake, but the entire round offers one exciting and formidably?challenging hole after another. Both courses at The Golf Club at Terra Lago are exposed to the wind. Note that the wind is usually strongest in the months of April and May. If you want to warm up before your round, you’ ll find a driving range, a chipping area with a sand bunker, and a putting green. The clubhouse, which includes a pro shop and a bar and grill, is adorned with photographs from the Skins Game. When you have a tee time to play The Golf Club at Terra Lago North Course in Indio, you’ ll walk in the footsteps of some of the game's most accomplished and renowned players as you test your skills on a beautiful and challenging layout.
