Crandon Golf at Key Biscayne

Unfortunately we had a very windy day so the course was long from the white Tees. Course in good shape, but a little bit too much sand on some greens. Some great holes, some nice views, especially on 18. Good value as a hot deal for 70 $,

Cant play the 18th holes because they start taking off the flag at 18:45! And in the 17th they said that we should end, because they need to close at 19:35

This course is a very tough but fair layout, and the scenery around the course is spectacular

Don't let the title detour you this course was in good shape for the this time of year. My son and I had a great time despite the windy conditions. This was by far the most challenging course the two if us have played. Our forecaddie said it is rated the third most difficult municipal in the country, I believe it!
Beautiful scenery, wildlife, and all within a short drive from downtown Miami. Lots of sand and would have like to play with a little less wind but all and all a once in a lifetime experience.

The course is awesome. You have to have your day to play the handicap ...

For $45 this would have been an ok value. Great layout and very good greens. The fairways were in terrible condition and the bunkers were like cement and filled with rocks. Expected a whole lot better, glad I wasn't paying full price

nice course.good seenary.course was not as in great shape for the price you pay.fees way overprice to many other options for less and same if not better quality.

Great conditions, great atmosphere, great caddie. Had agreat time.

i really liked the layout but it was in very scrubby condition. The greens were ok for the most part but the rest of the course was...scrubby. It wasn't worth the $185 I paid for a Friday afternoon round....maybe it was worth $60-$80. I decided to pay the premium price because I assumed it was heads and tails better than all of the other courses in the area who were only charging a fraction of that rate. In hindsight I should have just played one of those other courses for $30.

I Play The Course every Year, when i stay in Miami, i Love The Course

Everything was cool but even though are reservation said no caddie was required they made us have one before 2:00.

Paid for 18 holes, only got to play 11 holes because play was so slow we did not finish before closing time. Tee time was 2:30pm. Closing time was 6:00pm. Had senior players 80+ in front that would not let us play through. They fished for balls and talked too much before play. Ranger did nothing to move them along or let us through after we complained after the 2nd hole??

The entrance to Biscayne Island reads "welcome to Island Paradise ". Crandon, is simple beautiful. It's challenging, the price is reasonable, the staff friendly and helpful. I love it so much I am off to play the course in early February. This time with my golf buddies.
If you are in Miami, this is the number one,must play public course. The view of the ocean and downtown Miami from the 18th fairway is simple breath taking.

A must play, although expensive. We were lucky to get a great rate with golfnow.com. Really enjoyed every minute.

the place is gorgeous and the course is fantastic. Greens very well maintained.

Everything was perfect except....
1) topsand on greens
2) what a bad change that eight elevated green which required a perfect shot compared to the lovely green before that change .!!

Will go back for sure !

I played this course with my wife and had a delightful caddy . He helped get us through slow groups and added to the experience. The course is a good layout and has some great views BUT the greens were awful, the bunkers need attention and some of the tees were in serious need of a mower.. Had I been paying the full rate I would have been seriously upset

Friendly staff with Caddy support ... and very challenging course for my handicap

I have wanted to play this course for years. Got a very good deal on GolfNow so booked it for me and a buddy of mine.
Course was on the wet side on some of the fairways and underwater on some of the cart paths, but who can fault management for that. Each hole served up a special challenge that was exhilarating. The course layout amongst the wetlands is superb. 18th hole view looking back over the bay to downtown Miami was picturesque.
Bunker mania comes into play on a number of the fairways. I counted a total of seven on a few of the holes. Most all of the greens are well guarded that way too. Made for interesting play.
If there is one criticism, it would be the length between the white and the green tee boxes. One being too short while the other being a tad too long. My preference would be a distance between the two, about 6,000 to 6,200 yards, though not a deal breaker by any means.
I plan to go back and the sooner the better before it gets crowded when season kicks in and a course like this command a much higher price and gets very crowded .

Slow pace of play and course in poor condition. Very scruffy! Several holes restricted to cart path only.
Very disappointed considering the price.
Beverage service slow and no marshall on course to check times and keep people moving.
We passed a 3-ball at the turn but then sat behind a 4-ball for the rest of the round. Had to wait on every shot.
Very frustrating.
