Subtle but enticing, Crandon is a well-planned challenge built in 1972 by Robert von Hagge and Bruce Devlin. In 1993, a redesign by von Hagge brought new greens and bunker configurations. Formerly known as "The Links at Key Biscayne" Crandon Park Golf Course is a championship 18-hole golf course located on the "island paradise" of Key Biscayne, just 10 minutes from downtown Miami.

The course has the world's largest tee, seven saltwater lakes, challenging sand traps, mangrove thickets, and many holes overlooking Biscayne Bay.

You can see crocodiles (they have three), numerous raccoons and Jurassic-sized iguanas darting across the course. The blue and tri-colored herons, white ibises, snowy egrets, pelicans and anhinga grace the fairway roughs and saltwater banks.

From the first hole - a dogleg par 5 that requires a drive over water and mangroves - to the last - another par 5 with water on both sides of the fairway - Crandon Park Golf Course has, in many ways, become Miami-Dade's signature public golf course.

Nice course, friendly people

Lots of flooded areas from recent rain. Was not able to ride a cart, walking only that day.

But still gave overall 5 star because it is a nice course with friendly starter and people.

Great course, but needs to better take care of guests

We saw the cart girl between the 1st and 2nd hole... Never saw her again. It was a hot day and it would have been appreciated. At the turn, no sandwichs were ready for sale. The waiter was not helpfull at all.

Overall, it was a nice day but for the price you think it would be a better experience.

Good, but under staffed

No one at the desk when we arrived - waited 15 minutes for someone to be located, then he seemed completely lost. No drinks or food served on the course

This course is just a little TLC away from being one of the great courses. Tee boxes are roughed up a bit but the layout is great! However still I don’t think it’s worth the money you pay. There are a lot better courses out there to play for way cheaper and have it all.

Mediocre

Course is fine. I paid less than the rack rate and would’ve been disappointed to pay full fare. Staff not very pleasant nor helpful. Many blind shots makes scoring difficult. Pace of play poor and no Marshall in sight. Traps plentiful but inconsistent- some have sand some do not. Not a boring course- very long from the tips, plenty of room for length and forgiving enough…

Stormy day

The course is very good to play. It is quite challenging. Despite the short rain, we enjoyed the round much. The pro shop was helpful.

The restaurant was disappointing. They could not sell food for lunch to golfers quickly. It slowed down the play much. I will bring my food in future.

Nice golf course

First time in Crandon Golf Course, we really enjoyed.

The course is very nice in the Park with a lot of nature , water and animals; it's very quiet.

Nice view also to the sea and Miami buildings.

We will play again there!

The original price is very high and we used Golf Now to beneficiate better price.

Thank you
