Beatiful and hard course

The course is really beatiful, and also very hard, i played from the blue tees and also long.

The only problem was the first nine holes that we had 4 horrible players ahead of us and the course was very slow.

I will come back at the end of the month for sure!

Worst golf experience of all time

We started this lovely course at 2pm and after 3 hours, when we had only played 8 holes,

quit because of the slow pace of play. We spent 3/4 of three house watching the slow golfers in front of us, and 1/4 of the time actually playing. The driving range was closed without notice

when we arrived at 1pm, and only a few golfers teed off between 1 and 2. To protect the

pricing structure at the course, where there is a 50% twilight discount for starts 2 pm or later,

the starter refused to let any of the twilight golfers start playing. This would have alleviated

the slow play that ensued. The course has a sign on the 4th or 5th hole asking players to keep

up the pace of play. They could back up this policy by having the starter tell people that they

need to keep up their pace of play so as to finish in 4hours 30 minutes. We had booked three more rounds at this course over the next week, and just cancelled all of them.

Play cut short

Great course

However, we came in for a rain delay - and then the management shut the course - despite the two hours of sunshine that followed. Very disappointing not to be able to finish the round …especially when I saw players still out on the course as I left. The decision to not let us out was no doubt for the convenience of the staff in terms of closing up.

Big Boy Golf

Crandon is a great layout. The course tests every part of your game. Landing areas are generous. The test really begins on your approach shots into the greens. They are well protected by bunkers. Greens roll true.

In very poor condition The county doesn’t want to spend any money on it. It is one of the best courses in South Florida but in the worst condition. Don’t bother unless you have no other place to play

Nice course, friendly people

Lots of flooded areas from recent rain. Was not able to ride a cart, walking only that day.

But still gave overall 5 star because it is a nice course with friendly starter and people.

Great course, but needs to better take care of guests

We saw the cart girl between the 1st and 2nd hole... Never saw her again. It was a hot day and it would have been appreciated. At the turn, no sandwichs were ready for sale. The waiter was not helpfull at all.

Overall, it was a nice day but for the price you think it would be a better experience.

Good, but under staffed

No one at the desk when we arrived - waited 15 minutes for someone to be located, then he seemed completely lost. No drinks or food served on the course

This course is just a little TLC away from being one of the great courses. Tee boxes are roughed up a bit but the layout is great! However still I don’t think it’s worth the money you pay. There are a lot better courses out there to play for way cheaper and have it all.

Mediocre

Course is fine. I paid less than the rack rate and would’ve been disappointed to pay full fare. Staff not very pleasant nor helpful. Many blind shots makes scoring difficult. Pace of play poor and no Marshall in sight. Traps plentiful but inconsistent- some have sand some do not. Not a boring course- very long from the tips, plenty of room for length and forgiving enough…
