Course Highlights
Brae Burn's strategic layout features a mix of short par 4s and hilly terrain that rewards thoughtful play. Groomed fairways, fast greens, and a smooth pace of play consistently deliver strong value for golfers.

Length 6511 yards

Rating 69.2

Brae Burn Golf Club in Plymouth has a traditional layout with a landscape that ranges from gently rolling to wildly undulating. On most holes, elevated tees play to elevated greens. The large, undulating greens usually slope back to front. Golfers will encounter water on 15 holes and the fairways are lined with mature trees. The bunkering is sparse but strategically placed and there are also rough-enhanced moguls protecting the greens, a unique feature at Brae Burn. One tip if it is your first time on the golf course is to study the course diagram beforehand since there are many hidden ponds that come into play on the fairways and greensides. The course's most famous hole is the par-5 13th, nicknamed "The Monster" since it measures a devilish 666 yards. This tricky hole double doglegs to the left and then back towards the right.

Great Course

We are a group of Canadians that play in the states twice a week and we enjoy playing Brea Burn at least twice a year as we play many different courses throughout the year but we have not been able to play the last 2 years as we can't cross the border. Maybe next year I hope

OK

Start with having a 9:00 tee time and no one showed up to open until 9.Maybe it was the cold or some other reason but I was alone in the parking lot.

Course is in good shape but greens are very difficult .

If your above the pin 3 putts will be plenty..Pin placements are very unfair. WHite tee boxes are very long. Would have played the silver but no markers.

For the rate I was Satisfied but not thrilled.

FIRST TIME PLAYING IT

this was my 1st time playing Brae Burn and I found it very challenging as to the layout of the holes as there are several blind shots on your approach shots to the greens like hole 18 you have to hit over a hill to a sloped back to front green and in front and to the left there was a pond that you don't see .... also where the pins were placed and the speed of the greens today ( FAST ) and sloped a 4 foot putt could end up 5 or 6 feet behind the pin ... so I had 5 ....3 putt greens as some pins placements were in my mind not fair to the average golfer .... but I would play this course again as the leaves were on the ground and we lost 4 balls due to the leaves in the fairways

Fun course. The “Monster” is a fun hole. Leaves everywhere so expect to lose a few good balls. I lost probably 6.

Garbage course.

Paid for 18 holes couldn’t even make it thru 9 holes. Terrible golf course. Most holes the tee boxes are literally in the way of at least 1 hole and people are hitting over you to get to their green. Way over booked, not taken care of, and the view of the garbage dump tops it off. Not worth 40 bucks.

Great course

Idk why people are hating on this course. I played in the morning and everything was in great shape. Sure there are some divots at the tee box but if you’re willing to overlook all the positives for a manageable issue, then you’re a fool. I do wish there were more par 5s instead of so many long par 4s but that is just because Im booty at golf

I think this course is a hidden gem, its not a PGA level course but I'm not a PGA level player. Excellent value. And the Monster can be played many different ways.

Needs Serious Updating

Cart paths are in horrible condition which makes it worse when they state "Cart Path Only". No way to get to the 11th Tee Box (White Tees) without serious detour/difficulty. There were no directions. The walking bridge on Hole 3 is atrocious and needs to be replaced. Course drainage is very poor. Due to road construction over a year ago, the main entrance was shifted and now does not match the parking/traffic lanes to get into the facility safely. Simple things like directions/signs to tee boxes, cart return, etc. are not present. I would not recommend this course to anyone. It is as if they are about to close it so they are not fixing basic things or planning a better future. They would be better off selling it for development.
