Reviews of Highland Park Golf Course (Golf)

Patrick Gallivan

Make sure you put this course on your list when in Birmingham. It’s a challenge, it plays fast, it’s easy on the wallet, and it’s just plain fun. Oh, and great views of the city.

HORRIBLE!!! Who lets anybody close a range BESIDES A PUBLIC GOLF COURSE

Joseph Henry

Enjoyable course. Short, but tight in some places. I’ve played in cold weather as well as the heat of summer and the greens are well manicured. I’ve also played in rainy conditions and the course drains well. Very few sitting puddles. The workers are all friendly and helpful. Good range and putting/chipping greens for practice. I haven’t tried any food or beverages, but the drink cart is always making the rounds. Overall solid course!

Debra Broome

Awesome course and staff!

Trip, Evan, and the entire staff are extremely professional and friendly. The practice area is always in good shape and the course is well maintained. Although not a championship course due to its length, it is good to work on short irons into the greens and tight tee shots.

I was so dissatisfied with my round. We were snatched off the driving range and made to tee-off 10 minutes before our tee time. We wasted a bucket of balls because we didn’t have a chance to hit them. We were played on top of by a foursome.. balls landing around me. The course, however is beautiful and I enjoyed the challenge. Sadly, I won’t return. I’ll keep my golf game and my money elsewhere.

Chris Rush

Great course for the price with nice views of Burmingham. Would visit again.

I hosted a benefit golf tournament at Highland Park recently and Courtney Smith and her event planning team couldn’t have been more accommodating and easy to work with. They made planning the event a breeze and their execution was flawless. I would strongly encourage anyone looking for a venue to host 50+ people to inquire about the club’s second floor ballroom, which includes a balcony overlooking the course and a large outside space for entertaining.

Matt Scivoletti

Good value for a quaint course.

William Jones

Had my wedding here and it was a night to remember. Friendly staff-very helpful. Beautiful landscape! Affordable and they will work with you to make your dream wedding come to life!

Matt Waters

Plays short but is a fair challenge no matter the skill level with some fairly long holes. Fair price for the area and is very enjoyable to play. Very walkable and is usually cart path only. Almost always in great shape.

Anas Souid

Beautiful park to have a walk in

Paul Kilgas

Well-manicured course that takes advantage of he space available as well as the geography of Birmingham. Short but fun to play. Rates are a touch steep considering the ease of the course but it's accessible and in a convenient location.

Raymond Lupin

The staff is very friendly and the course was in pretty good shape. It's a short course but it's still fairly challenging. The greens were a little bumpy.

Great course and staff

Jonathan Culwell

Cart path only year round, regardless of conditions, is questionable. They make you pay for the cart GPS yardage and they took reflectors out of the flags so you can’t shoot it with a range finder. Fun course and it’s in good shape, but the negatives outweigh the positives. Several courses around Birmingham of same quality/price without the petty negatives.

Christan Brannon

Our company hosted our annual employee golf tournament at Highland Park Golf Course. Courtney made the planning process a breeze and Tripp ensured the tournament ran smoothly. Thanks again for a 'swinging' good time!

Highland Park Golf Course in an urban albeit pretty setting. It is an old course, having been established in 1903 as the first Country Club of Birmingham (which moved later to Mountain Brook). The course design was supposedly influenced by Donald Ross and you can see some classic Ross design elements. The course was shortened to make room for development and, therefore, it is now very tight. The greens and fairways as in good condition, particularly given how much use it gets. My main issue is that it is a dangerous place to play. It was designed in the gutta percha golf ball era, meaning the balls did not travel very far. Now, a shot a bit off line lands in another fairway, endangering other golfers. I was almost hit by balls several times and also almost hit others. As an example, I teed off on a blind teeshot, drove forward, and found five carts in my fairway, none of whom were actually playing the whole I was on. In addition, this is a public course and many players have no idea about golf etiquette.

I don't play golf, but I work there as maintenance and equipment operator. I like it.
