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.

Crescent Oaks Golf Course

We played all the courses in the area the last couple weeks. We played Crescent Oaks twice. Crescent Oaks is the best! The course is in very good condition, the greens are phenomenal and the course is very challenging. The staff is fantastic to work with. We like this course the best and this is the one that I personally most frequent!

Nice greens

Tee boxes are pretty good. Fairways/bunkers are decent. Greens are really nice. If you’re outside of the fairways it’s a goat track with all different types of dry beat up grass and sandy areas. GPS was questionable at times.

Excellent Starter for 10

We have been coming to Clearwater for 10 years and have always found this a good starter for 10 for our golfing holiday. Really great to see this year though the change coming out of Covid (course in much better condition) and some real investment and love has been applied around the course. Fairways in good shape. Greens though are really really fast. We're coming back again this week. Great value and always a super welcome. The guys in the pro shop this year were especially welcoming.

Manage your shots well

Crescent Oaks is a decent course, but plays very difficult for the average golfer. Perhaps I just had a bad day; along with 2 others in our foursome; after all our winner for the day was +1 after completing 10 through 18 (they started us on hole 10). He finished 18 with an 81. I admit I couldn’t seem to put 2 shots together but putting seemed to be difficult for all of us save one who made multiple 20 foot and longer putts. Greens were very difficult to read and somewhat inconsistent. Having played the course multiple times previously, I recalled past difficulties on this particular golf course and remembered how important course management is here. I just seemed to be between clubs a great deal and pushed beyond what I was apparently capable. Not a very fun course for 3 of us and one we probably won’t be playing again soon for the Roughly eighty bucks we paid to play. Course conditions not comparable to less costly courses around. That said, employees at the course were magnificent! Friendly, gracious and professional!

Worth the price

The tees and greens were in very good shape for the time of year. Carts with with GPS helped with smooth play. The pace of play was fantastic. Started at 1:15 for 1:22 tee time. Ended at just before 5. Under 4 hours is great in my book.

Greens were in good shape.

Overall the course was in good shape. Some greens were slow and some were fast. TZhis would be due to the time of year. Overall a good experience.

It was a beautiful day

It’s not my first time at Crescent Oaks, but it had been a while since I last played it and when I got there I remembered why. Don’t get the wrong idea - it’s not a bad course, but for eighty bucks, not worth the money. Folks working at the course: Fantastic! Friendly, knowledgeable, professional - the type of golf course employees that start your play with a smile on your face and who cater to your needs. Play started at Hole 10. Fairways were in average or better conditions for public courses in Florida. They weren’t pristine, but they were okay. Greens were actually slow to average speed and not as consistent as you might hope. Pin positions were actually pretty good, not always placed in the most difficult spots ( which we appreciated). Value was the second reason for the overall rating (3). Had we paid $30 less, we would all thought the course to be worth our money.

Great value

Teed off around 3pm. Loved the course, greens were on the small side but we were used to that from our home course. Beverage cart only came by once but it was really hot and no one was after us. Great course and great value for the money. Will definitely play it again.
