Manatee Cove Golf Course

The condition has suffered since a multi million dollar renovation a few years ago. Making some improvements to tee boxes and bulkheads. Greens are plush but slow. Fairways are just horrible. Not sure how they let them get away from them. Expensive for the area. They need to be conscious of that. They do take care of active duty with free greens fees and half price cart Memorial Day to Labor Day.

I made a tee time in person a day before the next day of play. When I got there to play the same lady that made my tee time said I didn’t have a tee time. Then about 5 minutes later the starter said a tee time for a single was available. So I go out as a single, but ironically there was a foursome in front of me and a threesome in back of me. Why? Crazy - I was waiting for greens to clear all day for 5.5 hours. It was impossible to play through…..

Great course, not too challenging, a lot of retirees and a few gator. Great food, awesome staff and great experience all around.
