Course in pretty nice shape. Some of the tee boxes are a little sandy. Rate was very reasonable and staff was top notch.

Lost my reservation for 5 this morning. They stated I did not call. Who did you speak to. Basically called me a liar. They later found it on a different computer?? Wow! Fyi, Now they are charging a $7 surcharge if you ride alone per cart. I play there frequently with my group. We will not be playing there anymore. Forgetaboutit

Pretty good layout. Greens were somewhat fast and a little bumpy (aeration a while back), but not bad by any means. Decent shape all in all.

Although I haven’t played Crescent Oaks in awhile I don’t recall the course being in poor shape as it was for the first couple of holes. I had a 5pm tee time for 2 and unfortunately lightning & rain force us to stop after the 2nd hole. When I asked for a rain check I was told by the person in the pro shop I have to get my refund thru GOLFNOW since I booked via them. I explained I paid him in the pro shop but he still refused. I called the Pro shop a couple of days later and spoke to Dave who was a lot more customer service oriented than the person I encountered when I paid for the round. Regardless I was now told CRESCENT OAKS does not issue rain checks after 4pm. It was the first time I encountered a situation like this. Other places do accommodate accordingly. If Crescent Oaks does not address the poor service in the Pro shop and provide prior notice for their rain check policy they will lose customers.

Nice course, greens are very small, very wet since the heavy rain, good day on the course better than working

Planned a 70th B-day party with Cassie at Crescent Oaks! It was so easy and extremely affordable! The food and service was amazing! Every aspect of the process was smooth and worry free. The menu is vast and the selections are very complimentary to the beautiful golf coarse views from the ballroom. Great location for any celebration event! They are constantly improving the facility and the new bar area is an excellent design!

So I’ve been coming to this area for years and decided to play this course. Why haven’t I played here before I love this place! The only thing I didn’t like was the greens had been punched but no biggie can’t wait to play here again! If you’re in the area do yourself a favor and give this place a try!

Course would be fine as a $20 course but is not remotely in the condition to justify $40+. The greens were in great condition, fast and receptive, but absurdly tiny. On most holes, if you had a 20 putt, it meant you were off the green. These greens are smaller than any executive or par 3 courses Ive played. The fairways were in fair condition. The roughs lacked grass in many places and were essentially waste bunkers. Many tee boxes were in poor condition. Bunkers are natural dirty gray/brown Florida soil, not white fluffy sand like most courses in area. Fairways are narrow and there are water hazards on most holes. There are also several holes with blind shots hiding hazards. The course layout is unnecessarily brutal. Not a course for anyone but advanced golfers. Bring lots of balls!

Played on this New Year’s Day of 2020 under the beautiful Florida sun. I live the Nice amenities of full size driving range and short games including a pitching area over a bunker. Nice quality fast greens with true rolls are impressive for $35/round course. The course was fair and packed with players understandably so unfortunately had to wait for many holes. Will come back to play for the great value with so decent quality. Staff was very attentive and friendly. Nice experience.

Great course even if it was cart path only, because of a storm. Challenging holes over water, and very small greens. Watch out for wildlife!!!

What a great venue to have your event. Cassie, Nettie and the entire event staff were fabulous. They were constantly helping problem solve and were tremendously helpful. They worked quickly to put on a beautiful wedding for 75 people in only two weeks which rivaled any wedding in a hotel ballroom planned for a year. The chicken with mushroom wine sauce was delicious. Drinks were on point. Very vendor friendly. Will definitely recommend to any future clients to host their events.

Pro shop attendant charged higher rate than advertised. I tried booking online as I usually do, but their site was not working correctly. I called to explain their website error& continued to set up our tee time at the internet price.We were charged almost $10 more per person once we arrived. It was frustrating as I play their often, and my father was treating. I felt bad since he is on retired budget.

Crescent Oaks Country Club was the most amazing place for our wedding reception!! Cassie, the events and catering director, was easy to work with since day one. Being from out of state we completed a virtual tour of Crescent Oaks and we fell in love with Cassie and the rest of the staff from the moment we completed our face time tour. They were ready to accommodate our vision and our budget. Cassie always responded to my emails and phone calls in a timely manner and she ALWAYS went above and beyond with our requests. Rich from the catering staff did an OUTSTANDING job on the food. Everything was delicious and presented beautifully! Rich even helped us create a signature drink that was a HUGE hit among our guests. The venue itself was exactly what we had envisioned for our reception venue...classic, elegant, and cozy. We LOVED how the ballroom had a beautiful view of the golf course, it had a perfect size dance floor, and plenty of space. Our wedding was about 150 people and everyone enjoyed the venue. The Venue did not disappoint and neither did the staff! We also enjoyed how well the Crescent Oaks staff worked with our other vendors. It truly was a perfect venue! Thank you Crescent Oaks for making our wedding dreams come true!!!

This venue is spectacular. I had my wedding at this venue last weekend and it was a perfect celebration.The staff and management is excellent. Cassie Thomas the sales director helped me with the wedding and was by my side every step of the way. Shes creative patient and fun to work with. Hats off to Rich as well. He was so helpful with the wedding.Wedding planning is stressful and this venue and its team made it so much easier and fun. Thanks Cassie and Rich.The golf club is very nice and the course is beautiful.

The golf course is beautiful and very challenging. I play golf multiple times a week from Countryway all the way to Innisbrook depending on the time my buddies and I have to play after work. Never heard of this course and gave it a try. I feel its better then Innisbrook in many ways when it comes to the North, south and Island, If there was better customer service and a starter then It could be up there with Copperhead, but Innisbrook is there to help and makes sure that you make your tee time. On 1/29/2020 at 2:15 we waited 25 minutes after our tee time waiting for a cart not including the backup at the tee. and the tee was backed up by 4 groups. Not exaggeration. We had no starter and no direction on whether it was best to play #1 or #10. It posted that they would appreciate us playing in 4 hours but that was impossible. We almost gave up and asked for our money back, one of my friends was too upset to come back. But I am glad we stuck it out. The course was in great condition, fun, challenging, and a good price. When it is busy though I do not think the people that get a bucket of range balls shouldnt get a cart before the people ready to play and are waiting.

As a DJ service here in the Tampa Bay area, we work at different venues on a daily basis. We have to say that Crescent Oaks is one of the top places that we work with. Their staff is extremely courteous and friendly with not just all of the guests, but also the vendors. Add Cassie Thomas to the mix and you have a recipe for an AMAZING place to hold your wedding or party. Cassie is one of the brightest minds in the events industry and her attention to detail will make sure your day runs completely smooth. We give them A+ rating based on their staff, the environment and our past experience. Keep up the great work Crescent Oaks!!!

Awesome course!Every single staff member was super nice and inviting.From the minute you walk in you feel welcome.The woman at the restaurant greeted us first and then the proshop staff was terrific!Especially Eduardo!Super nice and patient guy as well as the other gentleman,didnt get his name,I think he was a supervisor but hell of a nice guy!The cart staff was awesome as well!It was dark when we finished and I felt so bad because felt like we held them up and I was apologizing left and right.He had such a great attitude he was like dont worry about it,thats why im here.The course....TOP NOTCH! fairways are immaculate and well maintained,greens are small and very challenging so you really have to be on your game which i like.Lets just say I get free golf at innisbrook,which i suggest to anyone reading this,DONT GO THERE!, I would rather pay the affordable price here than free golf there and let me say You guys maintain your course better than there!Another thing i liked was we werent rushed.We could relax and play our game,as opposed to innisbrook who rushes u and sends staff out to follow u.Even the golfers here are nice@everyone was courteous and respectful.Great experience and we will definately be back,in fact this is our new course!thanks Crescent Oaks for everything!

This place is incredible. From the start with the cart guy bringing us carts to the car to load our clubs, to the nice people at the Pro shop, start spot and restaurant. The course is beautiful with lots of signature spots filled with Florida nature. Saw tons of birds, including a wild turkey that ran with us on one of the holes. Not a lot of houses on the course. Only complaint is the sand traps being hard packed, but the course and people easily make this a five star rating. They also have some deals, especially during weekdays.

An absolutely beautiful venue! Definitely make sure you ask for Cassie Thomas if youre planning any kind of event there as she will make sure you are wonderfully taken care of. She puts the icing on the cake at this 5 star venue by providing attentive service and making sure your dream event happens without a hitch (unless of course youre getting married there, in which case she will make sure you get hitched without any disasters)!

Why do we call this place Crescent JOKES?Because their efforts to properly host a golf tournament are literally a joke.The most recent evidence of this was when we were playing in a charity event the first weekend of December.Despite the event clearly offering a shotgun start of 12pm, many teams did not even have a cart until roughly 12:45pm and did not tee off until almost 1:30pm.Thats completely inexcusable as weather was no factor.This has happened with just about every golf event my friends and I have played in at this property over the last three years.Why? Because Crescent Oaks puts too many people on the golf course to maximize revenues rather than having a workable plan to accomodate group outings when play is scheduled to begin.For this last event, we left altogether rather than wait around for a golf cart and waste our time here. Especially when the tee sheet had as many as three groups teeing off one hole, which should absolutely never be done when setting up a golf tournament for pace of play purposes.The golf course itself has some redeeming qualities when it is dry and in any kind of condition, but Ace Golf must hire someone to work here that actually is qualified to run golf outings and has control of the tee sheet on those days.Again, this happens at every single tournament hosted at Crescent Oaks and they always blame tournament organizers. However, the common denominator in all these cases is the poor management at the golf course, how they do not know how to run a golf tournament properly and do basic things like set up a proper tee sheet, start on time, have range balls ready, etc.They recently sent out a long email blast complaining about golfers not showing up for tee times and others for using golf carts individually, rather than in pairs. This is yet another example of how management at this property blames everyone else for their problems, instead of looking in the mirror and taking accountability themselves.

Just got back from my first ever golf experience in FL....WOW! All I can say is I am planning my next escape to Tarpon Springs. I am from Ohio and although we have numerous nice courses, the quality of Crescent Oaks was in a different league....staff was amazingly polite and courteous; from the pro shop (Mike, Jeff) to the girls on the refreshment cart. Pricing is very fair and the course is a very fair and forgiving. I am relatively new to golf and dont have a handicap but I shot very consistent golf and left feeling like a better player. When paired (I was a single golfer every time) with other golfers, I found the group I golfed with to be very friendly and down to earth. This is NOT a course full of snobs and country club elitists but normal, everyday gentlemen. Thank you Crescent Oaks and Florida for giving this Ohio guy a GREAT break from the grey, cold, Ohio winter! I WILL be back!!!

We have been members at Crescent Oaks for six months and have been extremely happy with the services weve received for the price we pay. For this tier of golf course, you get a caring and attentive staff, as well as acceptable practice facilities and course. The course has had some recent noticeable upgrades - the most obvious of which was overseeding in the late fall/early winter. The grass is looking full and green! Would highly recommend this course for anyone in their price range.
