Birch Hill Country Club
About Birch Hill Country Club
Birch Hill Country Club took its current name in February 2024, when new ownership acquired the property previously known as Ridgewood Country Club, which had been operated by Total Golf Management for more than two decades. The course began as a nine-hole layout in the late 1990s and was later expanded to 18 holes, routed through hilly terrain with views of the mountains surrounding the northern end of Lake Winnipesaukee.

The semi-private club offers both nine- and 18-hole play, along with men's and ladies' weekly leagues, a nine-and-dine couples league, and tournaments open to members and the general public. A driving range and practice area support clinics and lessons.
After a round, the recently renovated Overlook Tavern serves lunch, dinner and drinks. Ongoing investment in the clubhouse and the course is part of the ownership's longer-term plans for the facility.
