Manatee Golf Course

I like this course because the course is more open than other courses and the greens are good.

Manatee offers a nice and challenging layout. It is in good condition given the lack of rain. This is the time of year to play here as it is not crowded and the price is a good deal.

Manatee County Golf Course, located in the picturesque setting of Florida's coast, offers a pleasant golfing experience for those looking for a casual round. The course layout is straightforward, making it accessible for players of varying skill levels.

The greens and fairways, while not pristine, are decently maintained. Each hole presents its own set of challenges, ensuring that players remain engaged throughout their round. The mature trees lining the fairways not only add to the course's aesthetic but also introduce an element of strategy to the game.

A unique feature of this course is its local wildlife. It's not uncommon to spot alligators basking in the sun or swimming in the water hazards, adding an authentic Floridian touch to the golfing experience. While they're a sight to behold, players are reminded to exercise caution and maintain a safe distance.

The staff at Manatee County Golf Course are generally friendly and willing to assist. The on-site amenities, including the restaurant and clubhouse, provide basic comforts for golfers looking to grab a bite or a drink after their game.

In summary, while Manatee County Golf Course might not be the pinnacle of golfing luxury, it offers a relaxed environment for a day of golf, complete with the unique experience of local wildlife sightings. A good choice for those looking for a no-frills golfing day out.

Played with my wife in 3 1/2 hrs. Course is in nice, not spectacular condition. Really enjoyed the lack of crowds in the off-season. Greens in great shape, fairways and tee boxes nice except for 12 th tee box needs work. Can’t beat it for the price.

Still finished under 4 hrs. The last time the course was in rougher shape, this time with the rain we’ve had in between visits the course was in good shape. Pace was tough with an audience at every tee box but still played under 4 hrs which is a win for me

My wife and I played this course for the 2nd time. It takes some getting used to because several hazards cross the fairways. It was a beautiful day and I know our scores will improve with repeated play.

Greens fairways were excellent !

Beautiful day of golf. Great price from Golf Now

If you can book through T times or golf now it is good value for money but through the course it is to expensive for what it is. It is in pretty good condition and a good layout, a fair challenge for all levels. The only problem is it is laid out around a sewage farm which makes it very smelly and in some places almost unbearable. As a public course it should be cheaper and full not many people playing> It gets worse next month when I understand prices rise again. A lot of courses here vastly over priced.

As always we enjoyed our day and the course was in good condition. Visitors from the UK we always love playing at Manatee. Thanks to all concerned.

Fun and forgiving layout. Course has improved a lot in the last year. Greens are in great condition and roll true.

Conditions are awful. Every green was putting on a beach of sand. Fairways like a random backyard filled with mud and crabgrass and the lovely smell of sewage from adjacent treatment facility being torn down or worked on. Only plus was no one was there. Wonder why: yet due to way they had us tee off on back nine, the 2 of us followed 2 groups of 4 the whole time. 4 hour round. Never again.
