Crescent Oaks Country Club
About
Located just north of Tampa in Tarpon Springs, Crescent Oaks Country Club sprawls across rolling hills dotted with sparkling lakes. The narrow course has a traditional layout that was carefully carved from dense woodlands, making it a challenging test. The lakes as well as a meandering creek come into play throughout the golf course. There are also a few strategically placed bunkers along the greensides. The par-5 10th is one of the most memorable holes with an elevated green and a ridge cutting across the middle. Par is considered a good score on this tricky hole. The golf course finishes with a par-4 dogleg left that features water along the entire left side of the fairway. The green is also protected by sand on the right and water on the opposite side.

Worth a visit to play
Greeted at car and starter excellent. Got out a little early and sub 4 hr round. Doesn't get much better. Greens were very good and smooth, not too fast, and enjoyed the layout. Good mix of holes. A little short from the white tees but it was cool and windy so weather made up for it a litttle. Some Fairway bunkers a little rough withe heavy/muddy sand but nothe supposed to be there anyway. Will definitely play there again....very soon.
Good place to be
This course has some really nice conditions, fairways, tee boxes and greens were in good shape. Towards the end of the day around 5PM as the Florida sun goes down, conditions are superb. The fairways thicken up slightly and you get nice lies. Greens were very fair. Because of the slow pace on the back 9 I played with 2 younger guys that were insanely good golfers. One of the guys, Justin was consistantly hitting his drives 290-300 yards. He was paring and a few birdies. We played off the pro tees and the course was particularly long for me but it was fun playing with such good players. I didn't want to embarrass myself so I actually hit more good shots than normal but couldn't score well because of the length.
AWESOME COURSE
The staff was friendly and very helpful. As soon as we parked and got out of our car a cart was brought to us. The course was difficult and very challenging. I played from the blue tees and shot a 87. I loved this course.
Good Place
Golfed there on a Sunday. It was a full golf course yet the pace was good. A little over 4 hrs. Course was in nice condition. Good greens. Nice fairways. The only negative was the greeting from the guy that checks you in. He shouldn't be there. The rest of the staff were great. Very windy day but we had a great time.
Best around
I play alot of courses. Without a doubt, best in the area for the money. Plays like the better courses. Greens are consistent every time I play. We always try to book here first.
Playable and Varied
Friendly staff, variety of holes with few quirky ones, decent condition, four hour pace both rounds, and very reasonable rates. To me, that's golf and all I need. Played only one other Florida course, which was scruffy and FAR too narrow. This one's much better.
AMAZING...
Absolutely the most improved course in the area. Played 3 years ago and was horrible, I have played a few times over the winter and amazed by course conditions each time. Keep up the good work Sup.
Avid golfer
This is one of my favorite courses to play. Links style, wide open on most holes. Beautiful. Enjoy!
Overall, good experience.
I haven't played here in a while because the course had not been kept up well. Overall the course was in much improved and good condition. The greens were consistent and good, although a bit slow, estimate only 7 on a stimpmeter. They have shrunk the already small greens even smaller. I am sure to reduce maintenance costs. Very noticeable on 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 11, & 17, so be accurate with the approach shots. Don't mind a small green on some of the very short par 4's, like 5 & 13, but on on par 3's where I had to hit 5 irons the greens are no more than 20 ft. Wide. A bit unfair if you ask me. Fairways were excellent, as well as the bunkers. Nice verity of holes, not too penal off the tee, with some chances for birdies. Great finishing hole! Would recommend this course for the less than $25 price I paid.
Birthday Golf
I had a great time with a friend who lives in Florida. The course was halfway between our locations. Everyone was very nice and friendly. I would definitely recommend the course to visitors.
Sincerely,
Jay DeWispelaere
Well maintained
This course is in great shape and challenging but not extremely difficult for the average player.
If you are up for a challenge ...book a tee time.
As a Snowbird, we booked through Golfnow as we appreciate the Hot Deals that are offered. I have been to the course before but decided it was worth trying again. The tee boxes for the men were in good shape but some for the women's could have used a little more seeding. We appreciated the well kept greens, for this time of year and the fairways were in great shape. Watch for alligators in the creeks and ponds, perhaps it would be a good idea not to try and retrieve your balls! I am just an average golfer but my partner is better than average and we both agreed that it was a challenging course. For me it was getting around the ponds but for my friend it was the shots to the greens that he found challenging.
rushed to play
signed up as a single and arrived at course 45 minutes before scheduled tee time to warm up and hit balls. Paid green fees got range balls headed to range only to be stopped by starter. Told me the three some I was playing with was waiting for me on the tee. After 45 minute drive no range balls no warm up and a 200 yard carry over lake on 1st hole. Not very happy with the situation.
Experience positive
The staff was friendly and helpful. Course was in good condition and fair for any level.
SLOW AND OVERBOOKED
This place is WAY overbooked and/or is inundated by local members who are old and SLOW! I would like to try it next November to see if it is OLD, SLOW snowbirds causing this or if it is home owners who were sooooo slow. If it is the owners then I would NEVER play here again! The course is decent, but didn't get to play all the holes.
Play was slow41/2 hrs..caused by group 2 ahead walking..by the 14 th hole there were 2 open holes ahead of them..not sure how many were open by the end..no groups were allowed to go through..a Marshall.., MAY have made a difference..
Good place to play for descent price
It's a nice course that was perfectly challenging (as most courses are when you are trying to get around on less than 90 strokes..) Nice community around the course.
Not a bad course
The course seemed to be in better condition that in the past. The good weather this winter helped. The greens were nice. The rest of the course was average. This course has some good holes. It is not the best course in the area, but worth playing. Green fees were a little high for the condition of the course.
