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 value and good challenge

For early spring, the course was in excellent condition. Tess fairways and green all in good condition. Weather was not great so the course was not busy and our twosome finished in 3h 45min.

Course is challenging enough for mid-teen handicappers. Overall a good value

The course wasn't even open

Completely dissatisfied. Booked a tee time in the morning and when we showed up at the course, the parking lot was gated shut and the course was closed. Not a good look for this course.

First Time Playing

Good quality

The course was in very good condition, even with it being late in the year. There were plenty of leaves falling but the grounds crew had cleared the fairways and greens nicely. The greens are definitely difficult with the hard back to front sloping, so it provided a challenge for sure even if you got to the green quickly.

Underrated Course

$25 on golf now was a steal!!!

Played on a Monday at 11:30 am with no one in front of us and no one behind us! It was outstanding!

Forgot how cool and challenging the greens are here. Most are heavily tilted from back to front and you can get in a lot of trouble if you over shoot the green. Very underrated old school course.

Place is fine, but better courses for the value

Brae Burn is okay, but just too expensive for what you get. Always a very wet course, and the greens could use some work. Looks like there used to be a driving range there, but it is no more.
