Type Public
Par 72
Length 7078 yards
Slope 135
Rating 74.2

Formerly known as the Players Club at St. Louis, Crescent Farms Golf Club has undergone more than just a name change with a major course renovation that included lengthening the fairways and reconstructing the bentgrass greens. The course has a parkland layout with mature trees lining the fairways and plenty of water coming into play throughout. There are also numerous strategically placed bunkers that appear along the greensides. Golfers will come across several risk-reward opportunities where good course management and accuracy are the key. One of Crescent Farms Golf Clubs toughest holes comes halfway through the golf course. The par-4 ninth hole begins with an intimidating tee shot protected by two fairway bunkers, a hazard to the left, and tall native grasses to the right. The challenges don't end there either, golfers are then faced with a second shot to a heavily bunkered, sloping double-tiered green.

Course in good shape.

The course is in good shape. Haven’t played here in a couple years because the previous two times I played course was in terrible shape. I like the layout and design. Only draw back was I got behind some horribly slow players on 2nd nine. Personally, I do not think it’s worth the $ for the weekend morning rate but weekday afternoon is reasonable.

Cannot

I cannot accurately rate this course due to the fact that it’s very wet from the recent rains, the greens were recently aerated and its early spring. I will give the staff 5 stars, very nice and friendly and even some pointers for a first timer! I will say this course is more flat than I expected. I look forward to coming back when it greens up and bit and the greens no longer have little holes all over them. I will say I enjoyed my afternoon here and played in 3:45.

Still pretty much dormant

The layout is good and challenging. Right now it’s a little tough to gauge because the fairways haven’t started to green up yet.
