Detailed description of Crandon Park Golf Course
Crandon Park Golf Course is a Public, 18 hole golf course located in Key Biscayne, Florida, just 10 minutes from downtown Miami.
Crandon Park first opened for play in 1972. The course was designed by Bruce Devlin and Robert von Hagge.
Some say this is the third most difficult public course in the United States, behind only Torrey Pines and Beth Page Black. Crandon played host to the Senior PGA Tour for 18 years, attracting golf’s greats including Lee Trevino, Chi Chi Rodriguez, Raymond Floyd, and Gary Player.
#7 at Crandon is regarded by many as “One of the Greatest Holes in Golf,” a scenic and challenging par 4 that doglegs to the right over the water.

Not a bad course, but a municipal layout that gets an awful lot of play. They send folks out every 7 minutes and things tend to back up. Bunker rakes are on the carts and not on the ground. As a result, the traps are seldom raked. The fairway and green conditions were better than I expected. The driving range is abysmal (no woods). This is a $50 golf course, and that is about what Florida residents pay. Out of state golfers, however, are gouged for $160. That's highway robbery.

Way tough course. Slope is very high - high handicappers shouldn't really try this course. Played on a particularly windy day and that was part of the issue, but it's a hard course regardless. Great views of Downtown Miami and a really nice course. But a no nonsense course - everything you want plus some you don't as for difficulty.

This course was on the Senior-s Tour for many years and the players loved it. If you are allergic to fire ant bites, DO NOT PLAY it. The course is overrun by the pesky critters.

For $65 (Resident rate) it is the best course in Miami. Beautiful view of the water, Greens and fairway well kept. Multiple Tees for all levels of players. Pace of play is 4 1/2 to 5hrs is the only draw back.
