Crown Park Golf Course

Great day for golf, light breeze 86 degrees and partly sunny. Course in excellent condition for upcoming World Amateur. Greens were fast and true, even after rain the day and night before. Staff as always was very helpful and greatly appreciated.

The course layout is interesting but they need to mow it down to let the ball run. The greens are slow. That said, we got our money’s worth.

Course was in great condition. Some holes were challenging. nice layout. Played in the afternoon and there wasn't any slow play.

Overall I enjoyed the round. The greens, fairways, and roughs were very well kept for the level of course. Especially the greens, and that is usually the first downside to a cheaper course. However, it was so stinky throughout the course! Distractingly stinky. A smell I have never smelled before, but I would imagine algae related? I would even blame my rocky front 9 on the stench. The mosquitoes were out of control too. I play Diamondback just down the street quite often, and they don’t have this issue, which means it is fixable. These were some HUGE mosquitoes too! Looked like Capri Sun straws hanging off their faces! The course has a bit of a funny layout too. Lots of long trips in the cart to the next tee, doubling back, the sharpest doglegs I have ever seen (multiples), and a par 3 finishing hole. Although, minus the smell and the mosquitoes, I would love to come back and play this course a few times a month. Until those issues are resolved though, I don’t think I will be back.

Truly enjoyed this course. Staff was great. Water hazards are numerous

Course conditions get better every month that I play Crown Park. Value for the money that the course charges is Outstanding!

Three years in a row playing this course, good layout with some short and long hole play for all types. Friendly staff.

The first person we see when getting there is a Gentleman telling us we must drop our bags off at the front, I told him we would get after we checked in. He didn’t like that. We went and got our bags and he immediately took them of our shoulder and all most knocked me down. My Grandson, he is 10, sat down in the cart, passenger side, and he started telling him he would kick us off the course if he seen him driving or setting behind the wheel of the Golf Cart. I told him I fully understand, but he told me to make sure he doesn’t even set behind it. Ok We are on #3 tee box teeing off and my Grandson hits a bad ball and I told him to slow down and hit another, there is know one but 2 group in front of us know one else in site, he hits and takes a divet throws his club straight down to the ground picks up his club and fixes the divet goes to the cart and sat down, mad about the shot he just hit. I am fixing to hit and here come the ranger aka bag boy hollering at my grandson tell him if he sees him beating the tee box with his club again he will throw us both off and there’s no reason to ever do that, evidently he has never played golf, I started to tell him he did not beat the ground with his club he threw it and he drives off before I can say anything. As I walk back to the cart I can see my Grandson crying. He said can we just go home and we did. I have played golf for a lot of years and I couldn’t begin to count the number of different courses and I have never seen anyone treated this way let alone a kid.

I tried to use my American Express to pay and was rudely told that I wouldn’t be able to use my American Express. When I asked if they had an ATM close by I was again rudely told no so I said that I was going to cancel my reservation for the day and the person in the pro shop told me simply OK. I hope the gentleman that tried to help me isn’t the representation of this course but I cannot recommend.

The fairways are framed by tall pine trees. Lots of water hazards throughout the course. If you hit it straight it’s possible to post a good score. Good value for the $$$.

Great course. Lots of water. Sand traps kind of rough but a great round overall. The hospitality in the pro shop and the bar area was very friendly. I will definitely return. The greens were slow at first but as the course dried out they got super fast. Beautiful scenery and wildlife. Didn’t lose but one ball which was success for me. Lol!
