Not bad

Greens got better … new tee boxes are an improvement. Pace of play can be an Issue depending on the skill level of players around you.

Greens are in pure condition

The greens are rolling beautifully after aerating has been completed… wonderful practice course to sharpen your irons. Most importantly, the staff will always assist you with a smile! One of my favorite courses in Orange County!

Perfect weather
Used cart

fast track

For a great weather Sunday afternoon got thru 18 in 3 hours--which made the round very satisfying. Downside of the course is still all those birds and what they leave behind, and golfers not repairing ball marks. Overalll it's close to home, not expensive, and good pace of play.

One of Orange County’s Finest

I play here twice a week. The staff are always great and accommodating. The pace of play could be improved. But that’s because of the popularity of this nice layout. Just bring some snacks and enjoy their clubhouse grill if it gets too slow.

Birch Hills 4 out of 5 stars!

180 yards … hit an iron on 16th and 17th

Please stop hitting woods on the 16th and 17th tee… if you can’t take an iron, tee up from the whites. Some of you are endangering others with your hooked fairway woods

First Time Playing

Fun Executive w some par 4s

It was a fun course with challenging greens on some holes, challenging fairways and tee offs as well. Water hazards early on so there are lots of strategy tactics to employ. Only con was the tee box for a couple of the later holes were removed from the blue range and only white was available. This made too many par 3s around 100 yards. When these two tees are repaired the total par 4 count adds nicely to the overall course. It was a fun executive that was not repetitive. There are a couple holes where the grass is wet to the point of being mushy and muddy. That made it difficult to hit the second or third shot as you stood in soggy soil and whipped up mud.

$28 for a cart is insane

Fun clean course … Greens need work that’s for sure .. $14 per person for a Golf cart $28 to ride for 2 plus the $32 to play … absolutely absurd! For $20 more dollars you can play nicer full 18 hole courses including cart …. Also beware of the geese poop everywhere! Staff was friendly at least but def can find cheaper better courses around!

Ground Under Repair for 3 months???

Several holes are ruined by wet mud that has been there for several months… #5 , #6, #13 basically all have a mud trap right in front of the green that kills your ball upon landing…

Please fix this! It’s a terrible flaw and ruins the experience of a perfectly straight shot

Danger on 17th tee and 16th tee

Safety fences need to be built to protect golfers from potential death on the 16th and 17th tee area… I’ve seen multiple people hit by golf balls from errant tee shots and it’s getting dangerous… bring a helmet!

Course lacks love

sad that it has come to this .. used to be a great course for the money … now it’s just a money pit with just as many people in the bar area than the course .. more of a bar and grill now .. that part is maintained more than the course .. also it cost more to rent a cart than it does to play .. .. course is almost yellow on most holes besides the ones visible to the street (to reel you in ) .. weeds everywhere.. duck crap all over some greens .. just needs to be better all around .. take some pride and respect the game of golf ⛳️!

Bad day

Usually love this course, but not on this day. There was a corporate tournament going on, and no one told us. When we got to hole 4, we came up on a group of 8 (!!!) on the tee box, with another group of four waiting behind them. Play came to a halt. Having groups of 8 on the same hole is inexplicable.. We tried to skip past them, but encountered much of the same. Fed up, we left after playing only eight holes total. Please plan these tournaments better in the future, thanks.

Beware of hackers

Beautiful layout … friendly staff and a great place to practice short irons. Beware of older or beginner players who might impede your progress. I was -4 today on the 14th hole and celebrated my long birdie like Tiger… and two older guys with lesser skills didn’t appreciate getting schooled so I left the group and finished with some friends behind to complete my personal best 4 under par.
