Manor Golf Course

First time at this course for myself as well as my son and nephew. Felt like a tough course for a beginner and that might have been my fault for not looking into skill level. Seems we weren’t playing g to the speed of the others as the ranger ended up following us almost through each hole on the back 9. Felt rushed but it was still a good day. Would go back to the course but need to some play time on others before returning.

Booked an 0700 start time as a single player and paired myself with three like-minded golfers who were also looking to beat the Summer heat.

This is another old school Berks County course which looks easy on paper due to its lack of length, but starts feeling tougher when you gamble, lose, hit your golf ball into dense wooded areas, and watch your penalty strokes add up.

Make sure to read the scorecard to make yourself aware of local rules for drop areas and free relief opportunities which might help keep you from turning a single bad shot into an entirely huge score.

Last minute idea to go out at 6 AM for a quick round. Staff was friendly got me out right away and the course was already manicured. Finished the round in under three hours.

It is April 18 in PA. Course is in great shape. Greens are fast and roll true. Better bring a string iron game and do not be fooled by the length on the card. It is shotmaker course. Placement is key and if you place it right you are rewarded with easy approach.

I have been playing this course over the past several years. Over the years it was starting to get run down. This year you can tell they have been doing work on the course. It’s early spring and you can see the work they have been doing on the t boxes and greens. Major improvement with re-paving parts of the cart path. It’s still not the best course in the area but they are heading in the right direction.

Although the course is very short, there are many tight shots to be made along with very small yet fast and difficult greens to deal with. Seems like it would be for beginners with the short holes, but your aim, and putting need to be above average.

Good prices and nicely kept everything makes Manor a must-try course in my book.

Course is pretty difficult. The greens are excellent condition. The fairways were in good condition, but of course layout was subpar could be better, but still a good value.
