Best Short Course

I have played on a lot of short courses (Par 3/4) and this is by far the most enjoyable. Private club quality greens and great layout!

Course Ok but who hires these people

One hole is so short I could have thrown a hole in one. Worth playing using the golfnow discount. T he young lady at the front desk (Nadia?) is RUDE. If she doesn’t like working with the public she should not be working the front desk/cash register. Birch Hills training or hiring/HR dept. could take a lesson from the other Brea course. Brea Creek front desk gets 5 stars, Birch Hills 1 star.

Carpet greens and shallow bunkers

The greens are dreadfully slow and the bunkers desperately need sand. They really enjoy making you tee off on the only section of the tee box that isn’t flat. Other than that it’s been years since I’ve played here and enjoyed the redesign.

Wish I knew there was a tournament

Wish I knew there was a tournament when I booked the tee time. I was scheduled for a 2:34pm time. I arrived an hour early to warm up and was surprised to see a tournament starting. I checked in and was informed my tee time was pushed back to accommodate the tournament.

The course was in fair condition the greens were fast.

Too many in a group

This course isnt too bad, except today we were sailing along until we hit a 4, which was behind a 6 person group by another 4 some. There should never be 6 people playing together. A 2 hour round instantly came to a stop. Last 5 holes took nearly 2 hours.

Great for quick practice.

Greens, teeboxes, and fairways in good shape. Only complaint is the golfers... FIX YOUR DIVOTS. Even though it's an 18 hole cousre there are many Par 3s whichead to a lot of wear and tear if it's not looked after. The grounds crew seems to do a nice just, the public needs to do it's part and repair their ball marks.

Fun Little big golf course

For a shorter golf course, the greens are fast and smooth bent grass. Over all the course is a lot of fun to play. The course was holding a little bit of water from the rain the day before. Overall it was in great shape.

Such a fun little course - Birch Hills

It’s been many years since I’ve played Birch Hills. Really enjoyed the new layout. Had a very nice round. Pace of play was pretty slow but I didn’t care. Just felt great to be out there.

Nice Municipal Par 58 Course

I play here semi regularly and it’s a nice Municipal Par 58 Gem. The course has holes that tend to get backed up 3 groups deep but also eventually spreads out. The pace of play is leisurely since it attracts Recreational Golfers, Friends, and Family members of all age groups. Course conditions are hard surface; both fairways and greens, with very little watering and with rough dirt spots. Only about half the ball cleaners have water otherwise they’re dry. Nonetheless, it’s an enjoyable course and you will find discounts deals on most Golf Apps. My suggestion; invite Grandpa, Mom, & Kids and you’ll fit in.
