The pace of play is way to slow, course conditions are pretty bad for the price.

Slow Pace Killed the Vibe

There was a 3-person group in front of us who really slowed the pace of play towards the back 9 of the course. When we got to the 16th hole, they had created a 5-group traffic jam based on their pace of play and there wasn’t a Marshal around to speed them up. This pace really killed the golfing vibe for the remaining holes. Other than this, the round was pretty good.

Good tee time, weak body!

It was a nice hot , breezy day and my playing buddies were friendly people.

I made it through 13 holes before my 86 year old legs said "quit."

As I've said before, this exec course lets you play all your clubs, so, come out and have some fun.

Pretty course, although executive size.

I was disappointed that the rental of the cart was almost as expensive as a green fee. Making the total cost more than I would have paid if I were,aware that cost for cart was not included. Golf Now did not say "walking"

in it's description.

Daylight getting longer

As usual, plenty of golf in a nice exec course near me. I left after 13 holes played with a bunch of youngbloods and a couple of their girlfriends. Nice bunch of people.

I gave myself lots of chances to score but couldn't take advantage of opportunities.

Too many short game strokes.

But, golfing here is a nice experience. I recommend it.

The staff run down the course.

Birch hills is fine course once you're on it. The course has easy holes and narrow fairways. Most of the time the greens are torn up and debry all over. The biggest issue the course has is its staffing as I have been asked to leave on non-busy days when you're the last tee time and anytime you try to get a hold of staff it's difficult, taking sometimes two days to get back to you. I wouldn't recommend this golf course to other as the staff are hard to reach and have poor customer service.

Easy 18

Executive course, easy 18. Not many long holes. I'd recommend riding unless you're into an above-average challenge. Lots of steep inclines and long walks between some holes. Greens are challenging and the bunker placements make for a fun round.

Bring your own foursome

At all costs, try to bring your own foursome… I was paired with 3 tourists who didn’t know the rules of golf. Hitting 10 shots to get on the 1st green and then putting out while I’m standing over my birdie putt… unreal!!!

Need some sands on “All Bunkers”!

Most of holes bunkers are like concrete! Is it possible to add some sands?, please. This is executive course and we come here to sharp our “short game”, but on hard pan like these bunkers won’t help us to practice & improve. Thanks!

Great little course

I’ve played here many times and always enjoy it. The fairways were in great shape and the rough was moderate. My biggest complaint is that the golfers that play here rarely repair their pitch marks on the green and it feels like you’re putting on bumps. Also, the ranger came by twice to say that our group was way behind and the group in front of us was 2-3 holes ahead of us… the first time I explained to him that we started 6-7 minutes after our tee time and that’s why we were 2-3 holes behind. The group in back of us was never on our tee box when we were putting, and the 2nd time he came back to speed us up I was a little annoyed. Other than those two things, it was very enjoyable.
