Sorry to say that the course hasn't improved a lot since my last visit. Putting greens slow and not very flat. Fairways sparse and very hard. Course needs fairways to have sprinklers.Reviewer Rating

Overpriced non championship course
This club is asking a lot of money for a course in very poor condition. It is not worth £20 let alone the amount being charged. While this course has a good layout, fairways are covered in drainage channels, bunkers with poor sand or no sand and bumpy greens (appreciate this is the time of year for sanding etc). Tee boxes are also in a poor state. The service in the club house was terrible having to take food out to the course after ordering it well in time. The order was wrong and gave a gluten free individual gluten products meaning it had to be binned. While I appreciate the work will help in the long term, it seems that hat investment is being obtained through over charging and a lack of honesty about the condition of the course treating patrons as financial commodity for abuse through lack of transparency. Very very poorReviewer Rating

Course was very muddy but still in good condition, they have done a lot of work on drainage throughout the course, so hopefully will make it better in the long term. Greens & tee mats were excellent, course layout challenging with some lovely par 3?s over ponds, could do with some more signage for playing the 1st time, but overall will definitely come back

Not a Championship Course
Have been wanting to play here for a while but extremely disappointed with the condition of the course. Largely uninteresting with most holes being quite long but pretty straight with open fairways, lacks the ability to make you think about your shots. Condition of the course was really bad with sunken trenches across all fairways, paths are being reconstructed but at the moment just rubbish hardcore with all manner of things, saw much glass, pieces of metal and plastic and even saw an old pair of scissors. Noisy construction equipment on many of the holes and the greens were extremely bumpy and in need of a cut so very slow. Very disappointed and will not be coming back!!Reviewer Rating

Overpriced
Decent layout with some interesting holes. Very slow pace of play, our tee time was 30 minutes late to tee off and the round was close to 5 hours for a fourball. If it’s rained at all the week prior to playing don’t bother, as the course will be soaking wet. Could be a decent track if it wasn’t constantly underwater. Greens have obviously been worked on recently and weren’t up to much. Very pricey for the condition it was in.Reviewer Rating

A very well kept course, greens a little lumpy still after winter treatments and are very tough to read with lots of borrows and slopes on every green. There is an outside marquee for food and drink which is heated and the food is very good, would still prefer to be be indoors and not in a tent myself.Reviewer Rating

Good Couse for a competent player
The course was in good condition except for the practice areas as there was no putting green available or practice nets.Many of the holes are long especially the 18th and there is plenty of water and sand too making it a tough course for beginners.
The greens are tricky too with several being crowned and on some days the pin positions can be almost evil.

Testing course
I would like to play Crondon Park again . It was the third course our Society played on a tour and not being used to play 3 consecutive days I knew my swing had become shorter . I am not a long hitter thus knew Crondon Park would test me out but usually very straight . I did not drive my best but front nine apart from making a mess of the first and the par 3 4th did ok . Back 9 tiredness caught up with me and did not play anywhere near how I know I can . Thus would like another bash at seeing if I could get around the course to my 18 handicap . I believe I could because I keep the ball in play and that is the key at Crondon as it punishes any drive off line .Reviewer Rating

Poor value for money
At it's best, I'm sure a very nice course, good challenge. However course quite tired, accepting it is late season and no doubt heavy use once lockdown eased, but needs maintenance. Unfortunately greens had been spiked and filled with sand - very unreliable ball tracking and distance. Very slow - 45mins late teeing off early Sunday afternoon after competition, and slow progress. Not good value for money.(Round played: Sep 2020 - Score: 108 Handicap: 22.9)
