Rating 73.0

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.

Greens are fantastic but slow pace of play

Course was in good condition considering the dry weather Florida is having at the moment. Pace of play was ridiculous almost 5hr but it was Good Friday public holiday. Would try again to see if the pace of play improved any on a midweek day.

Greens are fantastic,

The fairways were pretty dry due to the recent lack of rain in west central Florida, however, the greens were excellent. Nice course layout, fair but challenging. The practice range is pretty good. Staff is friendly. Excellent food in the clubhouse pub. Overall, and excellent value.

Course was great

Visiting from up North and played here. Course was in excellent shape and greens were perfect. Well worth the money. Gas carts were brand new and super comfy. Not your average cart, these are super nice.

Book now

My buddy from the Northeast visited for 8 days, wanting to play as much golf as possible. We played six different courses. I rank Crescent Oaks a solid No. 2, trailing only Fox Hollow, which costs $25 more. The Pro Shop staffers were extraordinarily friendly and knowledgeable. The practice area has everything, including a bunker. The course is in excellent shape with true putting surfaces. And you travel in brand new golf carts. Book now. .

Meh

Course was in okay condition not worth the $70 especially when you look at pace of play. Would be a solid course for $50 not worth the $70.

Great place to play!

The course is in great shape,especially the greens.The best greens I’ve played in Florida yet! I’m only here for 3 months of the year..but very nice. The man in pro shop Thursday morning on the 3/9/23 was very nice and courteous. Made us feel at home from the first word! I would definitely recommend this golf course!

Great course, Friendly Staff

Course was in pretty good shape for late Feb early March. Greens in excellent shape and rolled true.
Special thanks to Drew in the Pro Shop who was VERY upbeat, kind and helpful with a little situation I had (Rare these days when most people his age either don't want to work or act like they hate their jobs) He even let me swap the hat I bought after I realized I had bought the same one last year LOL
Overall just a great day in all aspects.
God Bless!

GREAT COURSE

Crescent Oaks is always on my list when I come to town. Price is good, nice new carts, nice staff and a great layout.
Only upgrade that would be fantastic, would be GPS units on the carts.

Best Course

Love this course! My wife and daughter love this course also, and we play here a few times a month. Sometimes we just get out and play 9 holes just to get out there. Great course, great staff, and now new carts! Cannot recommend this course enough!
