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.

Good place but not worth the price

Interesting and challenging layout. It makes you plan your next shot to get exact yardages rather than just hot it. Grip it and rippers would hate this course. Overall good course but conditions are just above muni level so it's just not worth the price, especially when you have to pay another $2 just to get into the park

Great value course

The Reynolds course was moderately challenging and in pretty good shape for mid-April. The greens were still healing from aeration, but were close to being true, just rolled slow. Fairways were in good shape with few bad patches. I played it as it lied and found no issues, though clean and place would have been nice. Sand traps were well maintained and soft.

Overall I would recommend this course and will definitely be playing there again.

Challenging course. Bring all of your clubs.

Course was very busy and slow. Saw ranger 3 or 4 times but pace remained slow all day. Greens had been aerated some time previously and had excessive sand on them and had not been rolled for a while. There had been no notification that the greens were in this condition or I would not have played there knowing that. I believe fees should be reduced in theses instances because you don't get to play the course as you wanted or expected. I have played this course before using Golfnow and always have to call Golfnow's 800 number to make reservation. It is not Golfnow issue but Tanglewood's. Golfnow should contact Tanglewood to fix problem.

Tough challenge

A true test of championship golf. Fair but difficult with big elevation changes and tiered greens. You have to be on you game here to play well.

Future gem but not now.

Wait about a month until they have reworked the bunkers and the fairways have grown in a little more. This is a TOUGH track to begin with and playing it in these conditions will frustrate the experience even more. Be patient and i believe this will be one of the jewels of the area again.

Don't miss an opportunity here

This is always a great golf experience as it will test each club in your bag. The par 3's are very testy as are the green complexes for each hole. Shot placement is a must to score. Good putting with attention to both speed and line will be required. Don't expect to burn this course up. It's a fair test of your ability to control your golf ball. Very enjoyable and challenging. Be sure that you select the appropriate tee for your ability as this will definitely affect your round enjoyment.

Always fun to play the little brother course (who bites)

Yes it is the little course to big brother however it has some teeth so watch out! The greens are just as fast as the Championship course and there are few holes that can run up your score if you do not pay attention and play smart. It is tighter and shorter but alot of fun to play. The bunkers are more consistent and the layout is alittle tighter.

Freguent player still recommends

I have been playing Tanglewood for 20+ years and still enjoy both courses. The chanpionship course is always a challenge. The greens are perfect and fast however the course needs work with trees and debries after the last winter storm. Some of the bunkers are also inconsistent. Give it a couple of weeks and they should have those issues fixed.

Outstanding course

Simply put; this is an outstanding course... Although it's a public course, it is run and has the feel of most country club courses. The course was in excellent condition for the season and the fact that we had experienced "winter weather" within the past couple days.

I would definitely recommend this course and will be playing it frequently myself in the future.

course is long and bunker play is challenging

Course was undergoing recovery from huge ice storm, but there were very few problems to deal with.
Staff did amazing job of making everything work for us to play. can't wait to go back and play when everything is in top shape and everything is green. Thumbs up.

Better bring your A-game

Extremely challenging course, particularly from the tips. Undulating greens and bunkers galore will make a man out of you to say the least. Two par 3's over 230 yards, both over water, and par 4's long enough to be considered par 5's anywhere else. RTJ had a mindset of "easy bogey, hard par" when designing the course and well, he succeeded in that. Bottom line: if you have an advanced game, you'll love the challenge, however, the average golfer will have a very long, tough day.

Good challenge, great value.

Played on super GolfNow rate. Nice condition for winter play. Don't miss a chance to play it. But, bring your sand wedge with over 100 bunkers.
