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.

Tarandowah Golf
All good from start, spring conditions good, green in great shape, staff got us off early. Round was just over 4 hrs. Would recommend!
Green fees
Im not sure why we paid $71+hst per player walking and today on your web site it's $45 regardless of the date or time.
If someone can explain that to me I would be more inclined to come back.
Fun
This golf course is easy to walk and fun to play. The greens were in excellent shape. The bunkers are consistent deep and plentiful.
Love this course.
If you want a challenge with some fun greens and green side bunkers, give Tarra a go.
Fantastic Shape
Course was in great shape. The greens were fantastic rolling at least 11 on a stimpmeter.
Best public course I’ve played on this season
Luckily got a decent deal with Golfnow.
Thanks
Surprising !!
Great sunny day!! Course in good shape!!
Greens lightning quick!!
Will be back!! Weather permitting 😉
Great fall coirse
Great fun and nice course in fall, would like tonplay in main season when the course is in full bloom. Saw grass was cut for fall. Still a great round
Fantastic course
The course is in great condition and strongly recommend you give it a play.
Gratuity
This course is the best. It's everything you could ask for in a link style course. Slick greens fast Fairways dry conditions are wet. Breezy or not. This course is always a challenge and some days you can get out after it and other days it's going to have your number no matter what. I love this course it's fantastic I give the course four stars. However recently while playing 18 holes I went to purchase a beer a bag of chips and a candy bar while making the turn. I was informed that an automatic gratuity of 18% was now being applied to all food bills regardless of what they were. I was charged an extra $3 gratuity for the person to reach into the fridge and pass me a beer only because I couldn't get it myself. This I feel crosses a line. Get out of my pocket. I'm so tired of everybody in this world thinking they deserve a tip for doing their job and now the course is taking it over. I'm sorry you've lost my business over a three dollar tip. Never mind that the average golf course now reaches $100 just to play 18 holes, they now want to reach into your pocket and grab a little more. I would have come back and played this course on a cost of maybe $400 over the next four rounds but I just refuse to do that now as I won't be paying an automatic gratuity on anything I might purchase at the snack bar.
Disappointed
We chose to rent carts for this round. The cart provided was old unreliable and in need of replacement. The charge for the cart was excessive. For this reason I would have to say the overall fees charged are not in line with the course quality or amenities provided.
I likely will not return or recommend the course to others.
