Manatee Golf Course

"Pace of play" was my only issue. The group ahead of me began their round with the group ahead of them walking onto the green. By the 9th hole, there was an empty par 4 between them. This group stopped at every water hazard to retrieve balls, even when they all landed on the fairway. I'm not sure if a Marshall was on duty, but there should be.

Pace of play is horrible here and there is no starrer or ranger to police poor golf etiquette. It took us over 2.5 hours to play nine holes. I would like to blame the fivesome in front of us, but the four groups ahead of them were even worse.

2-3 years ago the course conditions were much better. Tee to Green the course is now in much worse condition.

Used to play it a couple of times a month. Not now.

On the 18th hole Mark part of a foursome used profanity in the presence of a child.

His action i will not be tolerated.

The administrator of the Manatee course needs to take appropriate action.

Great course for first time out this year.

Wide open

Wish they would have told us they just did the greens

But most course hid that

Played here a few times in the past. Course is very dried out. Tee boxes on some holes are just sand.fairways are super dry as well. Course needs water badly

The starter is absolutely the most rude disrespecting person I’ve encountered at a golf course. I did not get his name but he is the older tall gentleman. He yelled at me to go out with a stranger who was playing the senior tees, as I play the blue tees this made no sense. I was a single golfer and he had 5 groups going off at the same time and demanded I go when he said. It was rude and he did not give me a cart. I ended up having to walk the course in the heat and behind a foursome. I won’t be playing this course again as long as he is there. Mrs. Terri at the front was apologetic and suggested I send and email. Here’s a review instead. I play to much golf and pay to much money to be treated like that.

Cart guy is useless started off 19 minutes late at 841 am, go figure. Course layout was pretty cool, no cart person :(. Greens average

Fairways were bare in some areas. Greens were in great condition, ball rolled true . The bunkers were mostly that seashell consistency sand with lots of loose impediments. Overall I’d play this course again. With the summer rainstorms coming the fairways should fill out with better grass!

Very pleasant course; greens in good shape, fairways not.

Course in ok shape except tboxes that were poor. No ranger to keep pace of place making it over a 5 hour round.
