Crane Lakes Golf & Country Club

Very nice course with always good conditions. The green are in top shape. The layout is very fun, and the rounds there are always at a good pace. Would recommend it to anyone!

I didn’t realize there were so many par 3’s and only 2 par 5’s. I guess with 8 par 3’s it really slowed the pace of play, but still finished under 4 hours. It was a lot of fun, but was a windy day.

Over the past month, I’ve played seven different golf courses in and around New Smyrna. Crane Lake Country Club was by far the best conditioned course. The tee boxes, fairways, bunkers, and greens were all in great shape. The grounds crew could be seen working throughout the course and their hard work shows. The course is challenging with large undulating greens, water on most holes, and deep bunkers. Requires some critical thinking to get around safely. I definitely recommend this course.

This was my first time playing Crane Lakes. When I arrived, I was skeptical due to the short length of the course as well as being a par 66 course.

However, that skepticism quickly went away with the friendly people, especially the lady in the pro shop. She was super friendly and accommodating to my requests.

Today was very windy so the course was very challenging , even with the short length. Also, there is water on every single hole so that can be a challenge in its own right.

The worst part of today was the pace of play. There were many groups ahead which made the pace of play very slow with lots of waiting between shots and between holes.

The course conditions were great (other than it was wet due to lots of rain last night). The greens, tee boxes and fairways were in very good condition. The course also has a very nice grass driving range with nice short game practie area to the side of the driving range.

If you get the chance, go play Crane Lakes. You will not regret your choice.

was joined up with a couple that were very nice so had very good day

Always a fun time and challenging here and there. Can be frustrating for higher handicap players, as there is a water hazard on most holes. Pace of play can fluctuate...sometimes 3 hours and others close to 5. Par 66 course gives a lot of opportunities for birdies but you have to be accurate with your shots.

Wanted to play a round between Orlando and St. Augustine. Port Orange caught my eye, as did Crane Lakes with its 4.5 star rating. The price was in line from Golf Now so I jumped at it.

I enjoyed it so much, I booked the following day and plan to return next month. The course layout makes it challenging for intermediate players like myself.

This course was very impressive. The tee boxes, fairways, bunkers, and greens were in excellent condition. I was very impressed.

The course is short and only a par 66, but despite that it's extremely fun to play. The greens were the defense of the course, sloped and fast, but true.

I'd definitely play it again and recommend it to friends.

Great lay out challenging par 3s, long par 4s it was awesome!!!!

our group layed from the whites and even at that distance the course offers quite a challenge. lots of water and hazards. the course rewards you for good positioning, long isn't necessarily the answer here. Greens and fairways were excellent, the rough was cut to just under 2" so a misplaced ball was difficult to find. there were very few ball washers on the course , but thats the only difiiciency I could name . found it unusual that the bar was in a real estate welcome centre rather than the club house

We got rained out after 9 holes and they were able to give us a 9 hole rain check with no experation date . Which is good for 3 guys that live 3 hours away and may not make it back for 2 years.

Beautiful course!
