Highland Park Golf Course

Highland Park Golf is a hidden treasure in the city of Birmingham! With only 5800 yds total, this course is designed for the beginner up to the scratch golfer with 3 separate tee boxes. The conditions are what you would expect at the finest of private country clubs and amenities abound! Come play a round and see for yourself how Birmingham's best kept secret is nestled right in the heart of the city!

The upside: very playable course that's shorter than most which offsets the CPO in my opinion. Course was well manicured and maintained given the beating it takes. Greens were pretty quick which can be good or bad. Didn't necessarily hold approach shots well. The downside: it definitely feels rushed. You're always sandwiched in between groups with marshals on patrol. Got hit into a few times. The biggest downside is the price $104. This is not a $100 course. You can drive a few minutes up or down the road and play an equal or better course for $60-80. Overall, not worth the cost. Won't come back unless prices come down or it's a special occasion with friends.

I’m just going to be honest with this review. For the pricing here they will treat you like you are dirt. The old fart starting people at the first tee treats you like he’s paying for your game and drinks. You sir need an attitude check. We are all relatively new golfers with maybe 4-5 rounds under our belt. In my 44 years on this earth I have never been able to tell someone is a miserable soul in such little time. The greens and fairways are beautifully kept but the issue here is that it feels like a speed golf tournament. We get alerted that we are slowing down play for other golfers to the point where we ending up just picking up our balls on 2 of holes because they obviously wanted to rush us out of the fairway. Upon doing that we run right into the back of another group where we discover that everyone is backed up because this place is so money hungry that they stack the tee times so close to each other that it ruins everyone’s play time. I know many people take this seriously but guys let’s try to remember it’s a game where you knock a ball away from you just to chase it down again.
