Twin Birch Golf Club
About
The beautiful setting of Twin Birch Golf Club in Kalkaska features stands of red pine and birch trees lining the fairways and the Boardman River, which winds its way all throughout the course. The golf course is mostly flat with the exception of a few raised greens on the back nine. The greens on the front nine are level with open fronts, inviting players to attach the flags. There are ample landing zones along the tree-lined fairways, making Twin Birch a golf course that will appeal to beginners and high handicappers but there are still challenges in store for the more advanced golfers as well. Some of the doglegs holes can be quite tricky. There are also several strategically placed bunkers lurking along some of the greensides and water comes into play on eight holes.

Enjoyable play - great value!
I have played Twin Birch 2-3 times this summer; each time, the course has been in great shape and the round has proceeded without delays. Overall, a very nice course and the Golf Now prices make play there a great value!
didn't expect much, but it gave MUCH more.
This course sits just a few minutes East of Downtown Kalkaska, the area is know for its rolling hills and beautiful vista's. The course itself is relatively flat, easily walkable if desired with few well placed bunkers but nothing to worry about. Also it has a portion of the Boardman river than runs through a course on a couple holes, guess i should have laid up, wouldn't have lost a ball there! actually I lost four balls total and still managed to scored a 45 front and 47 back, thats where I lost three of them. though to my desire, I did play the blue tees. Each hole is nicely sucluded which is a plus, and the greens played true anf fast. Anyone playing this course will enjoy the time spent and for the cost thru golf now, it was a STEAL !! I'm still looking over my shoulder, lol
Really nice shape
The greens and fairways were in great shape this year
We enjoyed our round
Need more golf balls
Nice course. Narrow fairways lined with heavy brush and trees make this course difficult to play without going through a few sleeves of golf balls. What you save on a tee time you spend on lost balls. But you may also find someone else lost golf balls. Good luck.
Great features. River and woods. Friendly Staff
Just challenging enough for an afternoon of up-north golf. Tree lined fairways, challenging "shot placement" holes. North branch of Boardman river sneaks through course.
Really nice, accessible course.
We enjoyed this course at an early tee-off. Wonderfully maintained, we had no one behind us and thoroughly enjoyed our day. Only problem was the water jugs were empty.
very nice
very nice course lots of dog legs still use your driver greens well cap I recommend this course to everyone thank you
Great Course, Freindly people, No Back ups!
20 minutes from Traverse City, No crowds. The course was in great shape. The greens rolled true and the fairways were lush. Nothin' but good to say for this course.
