First Time Playing

Short but fun

This is a great course for a beginner. Very easy to play. A lot if short holes. Brought my 6 year old to golf for the first time and he had a blast and was able to reach some of the greens in 2.

They call this place Garcia Hills but if you don’t avoid Lake Joshua… your ball will be wet !

Decent but a tad slow

Decent shape, the greens were a bit bumpy from golfers not fixing ball marks, pace wasn't great

Great starter course

If you’re looking to start golf and improve, without breaking the bank, Birch is the perfect spot. Good ambiance, good practice area, and restaurant after the round.

Great smaller course, pace was a bit slow on a holiday 2/10/25. Course was in good condition, driving range closed. Overall positive experience and is close to home, easier course with many short par 3s.

Good course, slow pace

Nice day, nice course. Bunkers are a bit lacking but not the worst I've seen -- but certainly not the best. Biggest issue was pace of play -- just over 4 hours for an exec course is too long.

Greens were a bit beat up from people not fixing their ball marks.

Soooo Slooooow

When I played this weekend, it was undoubtedly the worst experience I have ever encountered regarding the pace of play. Groups were backed up 3 sometimes 4 deep. It was so frustrating I ended up leaving on the 15th hole.

At one point the marshal came up to my group as we waited for the group in front of us to finish putting, and asked why we hadn't tee off yet, can you reach the green. I said it is 240ys to the green, yes.
