REVIEW: Granada Golf Course, FL

Granada Golf Course 

This 9 hole course is located in the heart of Coral Gables and if anything is worth the walk.Surrounding the course are beautiful old Spanish built homes, nature and the original old club house. The course was the first 9 hole course in Florida dating back to the early 1900's.




The course is definitely  suited for beginner golfers with wide fairways and no water hazards. However, when the wind picks up, it can become challenging, specially coming back into the clubhouse on the last three holes.  But overall, you do not need to be Tiger Woods to enjoy the course. Most holes average  350 yard par 4's , including 2 par 5's and 2 par 3's.


Pricing is also a plus. You can take your time and walk the course for around $15 or even take a cart for $10 more. Coral Gables residents get an extra discount. Granada members take great pride in the facility.
Burger Bob’s, Granada’s 10th hole, is a favorite of the community. Residents can share stories and enjoy a wonderful morning, while enjoying a home-cooked meal. 

Overall I rate this course an A for its location, pricing and surroundings. So go a head and "grip it and rip it"
