About Manor House at Tanglewood Park

The Manor House Bed and Breakfast isn't your typical golf hotel or resort, but its location inside the 1,100-acre Tanglewood Park does have its advantages. It's within a mile of Tanglewood Park's 45 holes of golf, including the Championship Course, host of the 1974 PGA Championship won by Lee Trevino. The Victorian era manor dating to 1859 has been completely restored. All the rooms include their own private baths and period furniture and decor. Golfers can also stay at the cottage, guesthouse and apartment. Park amenities feature an aquatic center, horse stables, tennis courts and more.

The slowest most congested round of my life

We were behind a 2 some that would hit 2 drives off every tee. They then fished balls out of every pond on the course. Once we passed them there was a 4 some who hit 2 drives off each tee and refused to let us play through. I won't be back to this course for a while.

Great Value

Great layout, several sets of tees for all levels of player. Bunkers were rough earlier in the summer, but are significantly better now. Greens are slow but have been consistently so all summer. Only real complaint is that the golf now app shows the par from the white tees incorrectly as 74, instead if the correct 70.

Tired & Neglected

Range horrible! cow patch, no grass, flag laying down on range. Bunkers not raked in days, many with debris, most were clay hard as a rock. Trees were overgrown in shot sight lines. Tee Markers had not been painted all year, difficult to tell blue from white. Greens were full of ball marks and not mowed. Played on Monday, cups not moved recently. Very disappointing to see the neglect of this once a jewel. Course is tired, care givers are apathetic. Did not see a single person working on the course. Shame

Sand

Nice course and conditions. Tough to stay out of the sand, pretty much impossible to with the number of fairway and green side bunkers. If you struggle out of the sand then the course will frustrate you.

a fun course

Course is not in the best shape, with inconsistent greens. I played the course a few days after some pretty bad rain storms and the bunkers were in rough shape. It was more like hitting out of lake bottoms then sand traps.

Much narrower than I originally thought. I found this course to be tougher than the champions course due to the narrowness and short play. If you hit the long ball well, this course is difficult because there are not many driver tee shots until the back 9. Which is why I found the back 9 to be easier than the front.

Great little course, only thing that I found to be negative is the bunkers and the fact you need to pay $2.00 for park entry fee just to get to the course. Think Tanglewood should figure out a better way to have that fee included in the play or get $2.00 off tee times to accommodate the difference. Kind of silly.

Course is very challenging and is a good value

Other than some slow play the experience was very enjoyable. The course Marshall tried to move play along but was hampered by some inconsiderate golfers

Can't control the weather

While playing the 9th hole, a huge downpour started. We had to hurry to the clubhouse in hopes that it would be a brief Passover. It turned out to be the end of what started as a great game of golf for all 4 of us!

Best I've seen it!

The Tanglewood Reynolds course is in the best shape I've ever seen it. The staff has done a wonderful job at making this course look the best it's ever been. The tee boxes are in great shape, fairways are in wonderful condition, and the greens are rolling great, with no damaged areas. I've been playing this course for the past 10 years and I've seen it at it's worst. It's come a long way and I hope it stays looking as good as it does now. Will be back out very soon!

Great course, very challenging

Played Tanglewood for the first time. Got paired up with some locals, which was nice. Course was in good condition, and is quite a challenge, with 4 par fours over 400 yards long. The only negative I have was some of the bunkers were needing attention. Other than that, a very enjoyable day.

Tanglewood Park - Championship Course

Played the Championship Course at Tanglewood Park yesterday. The two courses at Tanglewood are part of a huge municipal park complex. Each car entering the park must pay $2, so keep that in mind. The clubhouse is dated, but serviceable. Both the shop and outside staff were friendly and helpful. There was a delay in getting a cart as they were out of carts for the Championship course. The Champ course uses electric carts, while the Reynolds course uses gas carts.

There is a driving range, and large putting green that the two courses share.

The Championship course has hosted PGA Championships and USGA Public Links. That pedigree remains to this day, even if the course is no longer long enough for that type of competition. The main defense of the course are the bunkers. I counted 94 spread among the 18 holes. Fairway bunkers crowd fairways. Those, combined with quite a few doglegs make accuracy off the tee a must. Each and every green is ringed with between 3 and 5 bunkers. Running a shot up onto a green is not an option. Most of the greens are also elevated from the fairway. Accurate approach shots are also a must or else you will spend quite a bit of time in greenside bunkers. Water, in the form of ponds, comes into play on the 3rd, 5th, and 16th holes.

Course conditions were good overall. Tees, fairways, and rough are bermuda and were in great shape, as would be expected during this stretch of hot weather. There were a couple of large areas in the 14th fairway that were roped off for repair. The bermuda greens were medium speed. They suffered from a lack of repaired ball marks that caused some putts to wobble. The undulations in them were not too severe. The bunkers were filled with coarse sand that included lots of pebbles and rocks. A few of the bunkers still had puddles in them from recent rains. The differing levels of moisture in the sand made judging how the sand would react to a shot more difficult.

All in all the Champ course at Tanglewood is a great test of golf that requires accuracy off the tee and into the green. Avoiding the plethora of bunkers is a must.

Great condition

I have been playing Tanglewood for many years. I have always thought that the Reynolds course is more challenging than the Championship course. And at this time, the condition of the greens and fairways are pretty much as good as the Championship course. Especially the greens. A few of the tee boxes need a little attention but I was very pleased with the overall condition.
