Manakiki Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Named after a native American word for maple forest, Manakiki Golf Course's defining feature is the abundance of maple trees that line the winding fairways. The course is a classic Donald Ross design. He incorporated a variety of challenges including tricky doglegs, water hazards, up-and-down holes, and two canyon holes. The holes themselves also cover a range from short to long and tight to open. Golfers should prepare themselves for a bevy of uneven lies, but the dramatic elevation changes also guarantee some scenic views throughout the golf course. There are also sand traps but their placement and number were thoughtfully considered to make Manakiki G.C. challenging but still playable. It is popular for this reason but also because it is one of the best rounds in northeast Ohio you can find for under $50.

Poorest condition I have ever seen any Donald Ross course
Don’t exactly know what was going on, the fairway was dead, the greens were the tallest I’ve ever golfed on all season, the tees grass were dead. The people infront of us were incredibly slow and weird, the one guy had no shirt with a mullet, don’t think this course is supposed to play like a desert golf course but it sure did feel like it with all the dead grass. I personally never write reviews but I drove 2 hrs to drive and I would hate to for people to waste their time and money on this course.
Overrated
I was very excited to play this course. I had heard so much about it. I have read many articles about it and being a Donald Ross course! I was very disappointed with the condition of the course. There many courses in my area that are in better condition and don’t cost the amount of money that they want to play Manakiki. I will try it again and hope to find it in better condition.

Course is beautiful. The layout is awesome. Donald Ross did a superb job here.
Not Informed
Bought 2 t times for manakiki. When I get there, we are advised that they are a nine hole course. Irrigation construction on front nine. Hour drive for nine holes. Then the greens were aerated, terrible. We make the turn if we wanted eighteen we could wait in the line for back nine. Conditions I should be advised of before I reserve my round..
