Fun course and good condition

Good condition, great value, pace ok for a Saturday executive… 4 hours was pretty good! Only recommendation. Give out of have some $1 ball repair tools. Putting is half the game. Green are nice except for golfer not taking the 15 second to do some repair work.

Thanks, I’ll be back soon

Staff is great especially Mike the starter! But didn’t really enjoy the slow pace especially this foursome not playing ready golf. No etiquette whatsoever! Next time going call clubhouse and get the marshal out. Didn’t even finish, only played 14 holes! If this happens again not coming back. Don’t want waste my $$ and especially my time. Thank you!

Great value

Slow play is the only complaint. The course is in great condition considering the type of hackers that play there. Greens put well. I wish players fixed their ball divots. Fun course for improving your short game. Definitely play again when I’m in the area.

too rush

staff keep rushing us for play faster while we have 4 in the group. they compare us with others who have 2-3 in the group

honestly, it is small course. advanced player may play faster while our beginners takes times. I dont understand why we are being rushed so many times. if the beginner level course is not friendly to beginners. where should we go?

Great day

I love this course. Birch hills is one of my favorites to play. Last time I played here, hole one is now hole 14 so it was kind of cool playing it a new way.
