In addition, in 2019 Pine Grove Properties created a conservation easement for the former Manzanita Golf Course property and gave that easement to the City of Manzanita, to assure the land will stay free from residential or commercial development in perpetuity.

Pine Grove Properties then sold the golf course to Matt Brown, an experienced and successful golf course owner/manager, and it was renamed Manzanita Links Golf Course. Matt’s goal is to continue to manage the golf operation such that the course will remain a valuable recreational amenity for the community.
