Manatee

There needs to be a ranger on the course to keep the play moving. I had a twosome in front of me walking and they were playing multiple balls and we had to wait on every hole at the tee and in the fairway.

Most of back 9 is next to a treatment plant, smells and looks terrible. Planes constantly flying overhead. Would be an ok course If looking for just 9 holes and play only the front 9, Tee blocks and greens were in decent condition. We played as a twosome so you expect to be waiting on the foursome ahead, but we waited with three groups stacked up on tees multiple times, never saw a marshal

Manatee Golf

Greens, fairway and tee boxes were in good shape, rough doesn’t have much grass so keep it in the fairway, easier said then done!

Winter rules everywhere.

I found most of the tees and greens in fair to good shape but the fairways and first cut rough need more grass. Could be lack of water but certainly not because of heat stress.

Just ok

The course was a close drive and was a very busy day at Anna Marie island so we decided to get off and golf and manatee closet course.the course has a very strong odor of sewer water which has had for years. Something about near a water recycling plant.the courses in Florida especially spring break is very expensive so you take what is closest and less expensive.
