FUN COURSE
Fun as usual. Staff very friendly. Course got backed up towards the end, so it took about hour and fifteen to finish the last 4 holes. Still a fun place to play.
Thank you for the 4-star review! When can we expect your next visit? We would love to earn a 5-star review with a 5-star experience.
Fun Course little expensive
Enjoyed the course Staff very friendly. Only slight issue is the cost for par 3 course with a few par 4. Also the greens were a little bit of a mess. Lots of ball marks that now one seems to repair

Great course for beginners to intermediate
The greens look like they got blasted with an AK47, mainly the par 3’s.... but other than that, it wasn’t bad.

Great course for the price.
I love playing here because the course is in pretty good condition and the price is cheap. Sometimes on the weekend it gets backed up on the par 4’s. This particular time it took 4 hours and 20 min to finish the round, which isn’t great considering it’s a small par 3 course. It isn’t always like that though. I have played that course in 3 hours before.
It is well worth the price!
Thank you for the great review and your loyal patronage to Birch Hills! We are always working on our pace of play and striving to get closer to the 3 hour round you mentioned. Please come see us again soon for another 5-star experience!
Fun time
Had a good time, easy to walk the course. Not a lot of hills, pretty flat. Start on hole 6 par 4.
If I had to complain, the two things is hole 1,2, 4,5 were all playing 80 yards today, so not a lot of club variety there to end the round. Sand bunkers were difficult to play out of, didn't feel like sand. Hard to adjust.
However, I played for around $20 walking, who can complain at that . It's a great course for beginners, and a great value for your buck. Definitely recommend for what it is, an executive course and a good way to spend a few hours practicing your game.
Thank you for coming out to play Birch Hills. Thank you for also leaving a 4-star review. We are working on the course to figure out the best speed of play solutions to ensure everyone is playing a quick and enjoyable round. We hope to have solutions figured out very soon. Please come see us again soon for a 5-star experience!
Thank you for the 4-star review. We hope upon your next visit, we may earn that last star!
Great Day
The course is in pretty good condition, the greens are in great shape and the fairways were pretty good. They were packing the players on, we were waiting at least one group sometimes two groups per hole.
Thank you for leaving a 5-star review. We are very busy but still spacing people appropriately to ensure proper social distancing guidelines are followed. We are also working on pace of play that will also contribute to more enjoyable rounds and safer golf experiences. Hope to see you again soon!
Thank you for leaving review. We hope upon your next visit, we may earn that last star.
Only got 9 holes through 2.5 hours
This is a short course, thought I could get in a quick 18 in 2.5 hours but only got through 9. Pretty much says it all. Conditions are poor right now with the greens in probably the worst shape of any course I've ever played.outside of aeration periods.
Hi Milton, thank you for coming out to play Birch Hills. As with all golf courses right now, we are busier than ever and we have seen some more challenges in the pace of play. We are always doing our best to make sure our rounds of golf are quick and most importantly enjoyable. We will continue to work on this and the condition of the course for your next visit.
Decent Round
You can play this course in 4 hours or maybe less on the weekend. It just depends what time you tee off. We had a 10:02, but actually got off a little early. They are trying to help pace of play by starting everyone on hole #6, the first par 4 on the front nine. Usually this is one of the holes that gets backed up on. We had a birthday group of a bunch of 8 year old kids. Yikes! Thankfully they only played nine. We finished our round under 4 hours. Very happy about that!
Thank you for coming out to play Birch! We are always working on pace of play and are trying some exciting things to make all rounds even more enjoyable.
good beginner course
lots of beginners, casual players, or people just out for fun, so unless you go early expect to pace to be slow. the staff is nice and the price is very affordable. the fairways are pretty good, the greens are riddled with ball marks from players not fixing ball marks (refer back to first sentence)
Thank you for leaving a review. We are working on our pace of play by experimenting with our hole starts. Please stay tuned as we find ways to increase the pace of play and increase enjoyment
