Good for the money

Played this afternoon with a buddy. Wanted to get a quick round in during the kids' nap time and this course was perfect. Finished in almost exactly 2 hours.

Great course. The layout is a little confusing, but easy to find your way with the signs. It's a fun par 3 course with some challenging holes. Lots of sand to swallow up your ball and some water to splash into. The staff was super friendly and made the round easy.

Overall it was a great experience and will definitely be going back.

Great value for the money

I played this course once and hope to play it again soon. I played in the afternoon and the pace of play was great. 18 holes walking in 3.5 hrs. The layout is good albeit a little confusing but it distributes the par 3 and 4s so it does not get monotonous. The club house is all the amenities and the cart fee is very reasonable if you want to get one. Most of all the greens are in good shape and the fairways are decent. Compared to all the executive courses I have been trying I have to give this one the highest marks for value. Highly recommend it for beginners.

Not Worth $20

What’s wrong:

- poor course mgt

- poor conditions

- cramped course layout

1) starter let a 6-some on ahead of us. Really? Also, course is in desperate need of at least two marshals.

2) beside general poor conditions, I’d like to highlight the green conditions. So many divots and geese poop EVERYWHERE.

3) even after the layout change, it’s still cramped. Holes are back to back and you have to watch out for getting hit from other holes.

Bottom line - play Brea Creek. Cheaper. Better.

New layout

Recent layout change makes this course run smoother in my opinion. It use to be 5 par 3s in a row to start off ranging from 80-120. Felt like it was the same club 5 times in a row. New layout breaks that up in half, and definitely flows better.

Thank you for playing Birch Hills and leaving your thoughts! Breaking up the clusters of par 3's was a big goal of ours during the rerouting. We are glad that you enjoyed your experience and we hope to see you again soon.

It’s what it is!

It’s a par 3 course. Sometimes you have beginners or bad players in front of you. Just go with it. For the money and time it’s better than most.

Clubhouse is nice and cool.

Good for the money

Course in decent shape. Greens a little slow but okay. Staff was friendly and they have a nice bar area. Pace of play was typical of a Sunday afternoon, nothing out of the ordinary. Lots of short par 3s. Good for practicing approach shots 100 and under. Overall a fun little track good for practice. Green fees are priced about right for the area.

The new layout threw me for a min.

I haven't play the course in a while because of covid-19 so the new layout was different but it was ok by me. The greens are kept up but the repair dibits campaign who be pushed. I repaired several dibets on every great.
