Ironclad Golf and Beer Garden
About
Ironclad Golf and Beer Garden (formerly known as Belvedere Country Club) in Hampstead begins along the Intracoastal Waterway and then moves inland towards the clubhouse. The back nine is routed through tall forests that provide a home to grey heron and osprey. The golf course forms a large figure eight, which means you won't find any parallel fairways, but you will also be faced with wind whipping in every direction. The unique layout consists of six par 3s, seven par 4s, and five par 5s that all place a heavier emphasis on accuracy than distance. Many of the greens are elevated and the fairways are lined with trees. The par 3s are some of the most demanding holes due to their small, narrow greens. They are the toughest greens to hit in regulation but luckily if your placement isn't perfect there are still opportunities to save your score.

Great course at a great price. My son and I had a great time playing here. From what I saw, this is a course in the making. The greens were a little shady but you could see the work they are putting in to them. Also many tee areas were under repair which was a good thing in my opinion. In a couple years I can see this course as a really great one. Just hope the prices don’t rise.
Really wet from the rain but a fun course
The conditions couldn’t be helped, it was super wet. Some of the greens are still coming together and need some work, but overall it was a great experience and a lot of fun for us. Great beer too.
Had a GREAT time!
I have to say this course is a really good buy for your price....they have now opened the back 9 and it is great condition and enjoyed playing it !!! I would recommend this course to you easily ...!!! The Front nine is what we played so often and it's a great start now ....Enjoy this course..!!! I did..!!
Great course
Lived on the course since 2005. Has had multiple owners before the current guys. Glad to finally see someone not only having the course in great shape but the facilities as well. Beer garden at the driving range is an added plus.
Very nice course
They have put a lot of work into the course and it shows. The back 9 opened this weekend and it will continue to get better. Overall a fun course to play. Will definitely be back again.
Great for a practice round
I hate to give a bad review but 18 holes was done all on the front nine fairways aren't marked very well grass is in real need of water tea boxes and greens are in rough shape basically paid $15 for a live-action bucket of balls. People were friendly but you couldn't even get a hot dog on the course weird I hope they do well enough to keep making improvements the course needs it
Had a GREAT time!
I enjoyed the course...first time I had been out there ...not far from Old Point which I will check out next week.....Thought the course was good ..small greens so have to be accurate from the fairway.....but nice play ...enjoyed it ..!!!
Great course
Great course, really friendly staff. Great pace and fair price. Really good beer as well
