Crescent Farms Golf Course

About
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.

First round of the year
Course suffered from recent rains and a couple holes were shortened. The front nine played faster than the back as we caught up to a few foursomes. We waited on every hole from hole 7 on. I walked as my wife drove and we finished in 3 hours 40 mins. Overall the course was fun to play and as the season develops will be in better shape. We will definitely be back.
Under Repair
The course is being fixed up from some damage. Not sure if the damage is storm or river or just needed. Holes have been shortened.
It was also a very windy day. Wish I played better, but I enjoyed the day.
Good shape for springtime
The course is in fairly good shape for this fime of year. The staff was great
Crescent Farms Golf
Fun day at Crescent Farms. They had a tournament later in the day, so the concession area was closed, but besides that, all good.
Favorite Course I’ve Played So Far!
Beautiful and well maintained course, extremely fun to play.
First time @ Crescent Farms
First time golfing in the St. Louis area. I chose Crescent Farms for its value. I was overall pleased with the condition of the course the friendliness of the staff and willingness for the staff to adjust the tee time availability to fit around my schedule.
The course itself is a nice track with some great holes. The staff is in the pro shop was helpful and nice but we booked online got confirmation 2 days before and when we go to check in we weren’t on the books at all. They got us a tee time then we got push up with another twosome to make a four and waited until 15 minutes after our tee time to tee off due to the two foursomes in front of us. The Marshalls NO clue what is going on we had a twosome behind us and we were asked to pick up pace of play twice while waiting on the group in front of us to clear the 200 yard mark on 10 and 14
Crescent farms
Well maintained course, 2 par 3s with water, scenic and challenging but not to difficult. Some blind shots on the doglegs , would be nice to have a better way to know the course than the small description on score card. No cash excepted so make sure you have your debit/credit card with you. If you can get the hot deals on this course take it, it’s worth the regular fee but getting it for a third less is that much better.
Good golf course with good conditions
Golf course was in good shape with a really good rate to play. Definitely would play there again with the conditions being good. Greens were pretty good.
