Reviews of Tara Greens Golf Center (Golf)

mike Appello

Excellent golf lessons for kids...first tee rocks!

Ricky L

This course is convenient for the area and they take good care of the actual greens. But the fairways are in horrible shape and I feel like they overcharge for the state of the course. The pitch n putt is worth the $ and nice to warm up your game in the early months.

Clyde Zackery

Great pace for a family visit or a nice cozy place for a first or second date.

Mark Mazuroski

Typical Pitch and Putt course. Great staff. Inexpensive. Pros: Well laid out holes with real bunkers that can be in play. Greens are predictable, with no big break on any putt. Nice practice green. Club selection okay. Cons: Tee mats in poor condition. Several holes require long walks between holes. Bunkers are rather hard. (I raked a few to loosen the dirt and cover footprints that previous golfers did not clear) Because of the price and the overall decent facilities, plus being the closest, I will return often!

Phillip Wilson

Nice

Naresh Patel

Nice place to spent time with friend and kids

John Cox

Going downhill from,years ago

Ivan Perez

I really like this course's layout but it needs TLC to be great. Some design enhancements would make it more challenging. I would add a lake or even bunkers on the six and seventh holes.

Hemang Shah

We went to pitch and put with kids. It was nice easy course for kids

Murtaza Kazim

Courses should be numbered, needs more creative puts

Jim O'Dell

Great place for mini golf and pitch and putt.

Destruction Heroes

Nice place.

Friendly staff. The pitch and putt course is perfect for my 7 year old. Perfect distance, decent greens, and real sand traps. The miniature golf is like stepping back in time. Old style course that is fun. The driving range is well kept and the balls are in good shape. The pricing on all three is fair. My 7 year old loves the place. We haven't tried the regulation 9 hole course as the youngest age allowed is 12.

Old school mini golf and pitch n putt is always fun.

UPDATE: New management has certainly made a difference . Bunkers are back to being bunkers. Fairways and greens are good not great but it is the late fall. Staff is friendly and helpful. Overall the course is in much better shape now then 3 years ago. Most of the players seem to be playing the holes in order now. We have played about 3 times recently and not one cart cut in front of us! ( No one had to ask to play through either - we play pretty quickly ) Played the course a few years ago regularly it was in poor shape and the other players mostly unaware of golf etiquette, finally had enough and went elsewhere. We went back and it is WORSE! We were waved off our own fairway by some guy whose errant tee shot had landed in it. Instead of taking his ball back to his own fairway he decided to just play the wrong way down our fairway and ordered us out of his way! Formerly sandy bunkers have not been raked in ages and are half filled with grass and weeds. Normally we play 9 holes in about 2 hours so we are not slow players but carts were constantly zipping around the holes in no particular order and sometimes cutting right in front of us so we had to wait for them! The fairways are rock hard and mostly dirt which does make for a lot of roll. To be fair the greens are mostly pretty good and the twilight price is cheap but not enough to make up for the rudeness of the clientele.

No, it's not Augusta National, but then again you are not paying those rates! I play here often, since 1991. Greens are generally very good shape. Fairways are tight, and can get dry during times of heat and drought. Friendly staff, and you can hit from plastic mats on the range or grass with irons. The pitch and putt is always in good shape to tune your short game, too.

Jared Hannah

Nicely maintained for a Saturday outing with the boys

sanket jain

Very helpful staff. Answered all questions. Good for practice. Affordable ☺

Carlos Santamaria

Great place for kids

Jake Bobba

Easily the most terribly kept course I have ever played on in my life. Fairways were hard patches of dirt with weeds on them, made for a miserable experience. Wouldn't pay more than $10 to golf here.

Shailendra Singh

Good place to spend a couple hours in mini golf

John Shotliff

Inexpensive place to practice. 9 hole course but you can go around twice to play 18. They are lax on things like golf dress code here. Interesting 600 yard par 6 hole. Love how they have a normal driving range with mats, plus a driving range area where you can hit off grass. Pitch and putt as well as mini golf here too.

Louis Panetta

Been coming here for years. Great process for the driving range. Unfortunately the regulation course no longer seemed to be open (unless it's just too early in the season).

Dustin Glass

Driving range and 9 hole regulation length course are both good but unspectacular.

Dhvanit Upadhyay

Friendly staff and lots of fun.

Christopher Campbell

Nice covered driving range. Practice green is in good shape. The par 3 course was good. I ended up using a Callaway launch pad on the course because most of the tee platform pads were in rough shape. I could see that alot of players have been using the grass/ground beside the tee platform- they should read the rules. At the driving range the tee pads were ok, but getting worn. The yardage signs at the driving range need to be upgraded. Overall it was a good time though. My wife and I had only started about 3 months ago and this was our first time playing on a course.

Gerard Giles

Staff is great....can't beat the price

RJ Kuehner

Decent 9 hole public golf course. Driving range is nice.

Dave Tutelman

Friendly staff, good value, and enjoyable golf. The grooming and layout are not the greatest, but not bad -- certainly good enough for practice or an informal round, and priced right. The greens were slow, but ran true. The bunkers were spotty, some with good sand and some like concrete. Most of the par-fours are straight and unimaginative; the challenge is their length. My only real complaint is the sixth hole. If they removed two trees in the left side of the dogleg, it would be a good, strong par-5; as it stands, I thought I was playing the windmill hole on the mini-golf course. I played here today because I was meeting someone who lives nearby. Left a generally good impression. I'd be here more often if it weren't a 50-minute drive.

Nick McManus

No sharing clubs, and no speciating? I was going to watch my friend play on their course, but when I went with him just to watch a staff member gave us a hard time and said I wasn't allowed to watch. Isn't golf a spectator sport? Prices for the range are okay though. But still, no speciating is ridiculous. And of course they tell us this after he had paid.

R Kern

This pertains solely to mini-golf. Not very imaginative nor challenging. Mostly arches that are easily passed through.. The obstacles look like they were stapled together from 1/8" plywood leftover from some home DIY project. The big course looked impressive and golfers looked like they were having a great time. But for mini-golf look elsewhere.

Saurabh Kaushik

Good for driving range and beginners

Antoine Johnson

Very nice facility very nice people.

Jacob Nieman

It's a great place for a quick affordable game of golf. The pitch and putt is tired but fun, decently well maintained and consistent. The 9 Hole course is simple (Think lots of long straight holes) but its a fun place to play a quick round. It also doesn't take itself too seriously which is great. You can borrow clubs for just about anything. Definitely recommended for the casual golfer!

Scott Schrob

9 hole course that you go around twice, not great but a good place for a beginner. It's not terribly challenging, has one real long hole, 615 yards, and a few years back they added some deep pot bunkers to some holes. Driving range is decent, has both mat and grass areas available. There is also a 9 hole par 3 course and a mini golf course.

Megan Ingegno

Mini golf course is torn up. Holes filled with water, dilapidated obstacles, ripped up turf. It is a shame. Used to love going here as a kid, but they have let it fall into disrepair. Not worth the 7 bucks.

Phillip Terry

Price is reasonable, greens were nice and clean. Fairways were a little dry. Overall a good value play. Today was little slow on a Sunday afternoon. First 9 in 75 min. Second 9 in 2 and a half hours. Will return.

Chris Nicholson

Great place to work on your short game but the greens were in rough shape this season

Jim McGrath

Great 9 hole golf Course for the money. Basically no frills. The rough can be a little high but the greens are in good shape. $19 senior rate with a cart. Also has a pitch and put course and a driving range.

Wizzah

The hours displayed on the website is not the correct ones. Says they are open until 9pm on a Saturday online, went there at 6 and they were closing

Dan Ticchio

I typically come here for the driving range. Prices seem fair and conditions are good enough for practice. The mini golf course is a bit old and boring. The 9 hole main course is a waste of time to me, I'd rather play 18 elsewhere for the price.

Mikee535

Can't beat it for the price and a relaxing round. Course can get pretty beat up but you get what you pay for. Good for beginners, golfers on a budget.

Arnav Lakhia

Awesome place

Virendra Parab

Took my daughter to the driving range for the first time.

Brian Davis

Balls are cheap. Grass tees need work. But not bad for a lunch time bucket.

Jacqueline Mills

The rating for each part of the center would be different, but overall it's average. The mini golf is pretty standard, but is definitely pretty torn up. The golfing range is in a lot better shape, and pretty decent. As for the course, I'm not sure since I haven't visited that part.

R Ghilino

A great course for not so great golfers.

Sasha Miller

There for a birthday party. Pleasantly surprised by this place. Convenient location.

Krysten Suarez

Not the best quality pitch and putt, but cheap and fun

Darshan Shah

Fun for a few hours at the driving range

Art Bart

The service was very good both times we were there (the young guys and the older person). They gave us clubs for all the kids and helped us with directions. The people playing were also nice (unlike other places that they screamed at my kids for making noise).

Agoo Jamie

Pitch & Putt still open. Mini golf temporarily closed for renovations. 9 hole course is closed permanently. Driving range still available. Not the best place but, it will do. Plenty of Wasps so pay attention. Better places to go to honestly.

Josephine Campbell

Needs TLC but a nice course. The Par 3 pitch and putt is also nice but they need to replace those tee offs on them. They are horrible and needs to be replaced.

Ben Erb

Does not have friendly staff despite what other reviews say. The pitch n putt, 9 hole, and driving range were all in bad shape when I went.

A.J. Meeks

Regulation 9 hole course permanently closed. Sad to see it go.

322Major

Played Tara Greens several times last year and I love it. It may not be PGA standards but very nice for the beginner. You driver is your best friend on this course. It's long, there is a 600+ yard hole. Lots of fun and very relaxed. Great fun, long drives and deep bunkers. 1st and 2nd hole you can put it on the green from the tee. Love it.

George Pagan

Mats are old and need to be updated.

sergio germinario

Took my granddaughter to see John P excellent youth instructor. She says she wants to learn how to play so a good base is important

Jay Patel

Decent driving range

Brittany Jacobs

Went for pitch and putt. It smelled like garbage and the course was a mess. No upkeep at all. Platforms were falling apart and the ground was bumpy and overgrown.

Jordan Hriniak

They no longer have the full course. I will no longer be going to Tara greens. loved getting a round in at Tara Greens , nice and relaxed course.

Rick Nurse

Have been going here for yrs! Always a great time. Not too overcrowded. My wife who hates golf even liked it!

Gil Figaro

Used the driving range and was good.
