Great Course

Probably the best value in the area. The course is in great shape. Greens are very good. Fun course with good pace of play. Fairways are wide enough to accommodate errant shots without losing a bunch of balls or spending a lot of time looking for them.

Good public course

Good public course for the money. I have played here often, not the best but always playable, good value for the money. Can play slow at times but that is typical of most courses today, with fewer golfers every year no one is going to chase away customers. They keep up with maintenance and mowing and do try to make minor improvements. Greens are usually fast but can get a little beat up, it seams fewer and fewer golfers repair ball marks or rake traps then they ........ about conditions. Course has a bar and serves beer only, some sandwiches. Staff is friendly.

Fun in the Sun!

I play this course on a regular basis because it is fun, and the Seniors and the Ladies get a fair break off the tees. Too many courses that I see offer a 5 or ten yard break off the tees to the older and shorter hitters, which favors the guys that hit the ball a ton. Nothing wrong with hitting the ball a ton, but lets face it. The 20 and 30 year old players do not comprise the majority of players from Monday Through Friday. Anyway, Manada is friendly to players of all skill levels, ages and genders. The fairways are manicured and the greens are the most beautiful in the central Pa area...Period. The staff is friendly and you can get something to eat or drink. What more could you ask for!!!

Superb Conditions! The Best Greens Around Period!

The course was in great shape, despite all of the rain that we have been getting. The greens are fast but receptive. Fairways are mowed nicely, without the super thick rough. The staff was very friendly and that is very much appreciated. There are plenty of golf desk clerks out there that are downright jerks. Manada Golf Club remains one of my favorite courses to play. It just never gets old. Highly Recommended.

Send your mowers through the course backwards

Played a round with a buddy and a worker was mowing the tee boxes. He literally started on 1 and followed us the entire round. Have your guys start on 18 and go backwards, then they’re not just following a grouping all day. Had to hit out of the tee box with a huge tractor idling behind us on every hole. Really got annoying. If you have them go backwards they won’t track a group all day, but rather can mow between groups.

Decent course for the price

Not the best layout; a lot of side by side holes. People were hitting from each fairway back to their fairway. Bunkers were very rocky, had to pull my ball out often just so i wouldn't ruin my clubs. No scenic holes, very bland.

Pros: very nice staff and they are open almost all year long. They also offer very low prices.

Had a lot of rain prior to my tee time, so it was cart paths only. Course was rough but went smoothly.

Good value

I’ve played this course several times over the years. It is a nice layout and challenging for all levels. The greens are always quick and course conditions good. The rates are also very reasonable. They could use some updated carts. Food service was quick. Will play again.
