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.

Nice job around there
A good place to play golf that is becoming a great place to play golf.
Twin Birch is a good play
Went to Twin Birch because it was 25% the cost of Grand Traverse… and it was worth it! Course is in great shape, only comment is that getting from one hole to the next is sometimes not so clear… but we found our way. Food was great in the grill, they even sell a knock-off Bill Thomas Halo burger with Mayo and olives! The best! Great affordable golf, electric carts, no pressure.
Great golf course.
Staff was friendly and course was is great shape. Golfed there twice over my vacation in Kalkaska. Definitely coming back.
Nice course
The course was in very good condition! The pace of play was slow but expected on the weekend. The course isn't too tough but it does have quite a few dog legs so must hit certain distances/layups or be able to draw/fade some tee shots!
Northern Michigan Gem
I like the course a lot. Tons of challenging holes and the tees, fairways and greens are top notch. Tons of dogleg holes which I enjoy. I’ll be back!
Nice Course
The course was in good shape. A little too expensive for the overall course.
Perfect gem- Complete package- great walking course
If you're looking for a fantastic golfing experience up north, this course is definitely worth a visit. It offers a tight course that will challenge your skills, but the views are worth it. The river views are especially breathtaking. And, the best part of it all, is the wildlife. You'll see plenty of animals on the course, which adds to the overall ambiance. The clubhouse is top notch too! I highly recommend grabbing a drink and some awesome food after the game and taking in the scenery. Overall, an amazing golf course that I plan to visit again soon.
Beautiful shape. Several doglegs.
I enjoyed the course, although with the doglegs, it would be nice if they indicated the distances from the tee to the dogleg, and a suggestion of which side of the fairway gives you a shot at the green. I can see it helps your scoring to have played the course a few times.
Love this course
Love this course, reasonable price, great conditions, and awesome new clubhouse!
