Beckett Ridge Golf Club was designed by Jack Kidwell, a well known name in Ohio golf. The course has a classic design that is inlaid with meandering streams that weave through stands of mature trees. The rolling landscape was deftly incorporated into the golf course. The layout offers a variety of holes ranging from long to short, tight to open. It is definitely a course that requires some strategy. One of the most memorable holes is the par-5 fifth. It measures 541 yards, but this downhill hole plays much shorter. There are out-of-bounds on either side and the tricky fairway slopes right to left but with some strategy and a little skill it is possible to make it home in two. Beckett Ridge is one of Southwest Ohio's best golf courses.

In great shape for the spring

The fairways and greens are in great shape for the spring 2026. Rough is thick in some places, so you better have a good idea where your ball should be. I didn't lose a ball, but I found several in the rough.

Everything about this course was amazing

Course was an amazing shape super friendly staff. I’m just about everything about. It was great. It was our first time playing there and it won’t be our last only issues I have is food pricing. There’s no way you should ever be charging that much for a hot dog, but other than that place is awesome.

Beckett Ridge GC

Excellent course. Slow play because of having 3 foursomes teeing off in front of us 41/2 hour round plus we quit after 17th hole. Always a very good and tough track.

Slow round. Greens were good speed wise but had some spots that were really bad. Expansive if you got cart shack. Bought a bag of peanuts cost 3:18. Crazy!

Poor Management

We booked 18 holes online and when we got to the course, they randomly closed the course early for “maintenance” when we only played 9. Staff was rude about it at the clubhouse and did not offer anything for the inconvenience. Very frustrating and wouldn’t recommend playing here.

Great discounted round

Had a great round with the wife and the pace of play was fantastic! We waited on a few holes but not long 4 hours and 10 minutes for a Friday afternoon! The greens were surprisingly fast, maybe 7 to 9…considering they were sanded and looked to be micro punched. The wife really enjoyed the course. The red tees were definitely playable for her with huge jumps on some of the holes. (She drives the ball 150 yds average). But fun as always and that staff was excellent!

Needs TLC

Had been a few years since I played here. This course has a good layout just needs some love. The day I played there were quite a few holes that were chewed up. Maybe they are winding down into the off-season, I'm not sure.

Staff Interaction

The starter was excellent. Shared a ton of helpful guidance and info. Snack bar gal was very abrupt and curt. Not friendly at all. Not welcoming.

The Course has gone downhill

Was very disappointed with what I saw out on the course for a once very solid golf course.

The Tee Boxes - awful - looked like nobody had done anything to them since the beginning of the season

The greens - probably 30% of them had half the green with dead grass on it and it was just brown

The bunkers - unplayable - don’t think anyone has touched these bunkers all season

The fairways - were surprisingly in decent shape although there were a decent amount of spots that looked like a desert

Yet, with all these issues they still charge $70. There are so many courses in the city worth playing over Beckett.

A course that used to be a staple is somewhere I’m not sure I’ll ever be back to unless I hear of some serious changes being made by ownership to actually take care of the course.

NICE MONDAY AT BECKETT RID

I had an online Hot Deal reservation for 12:30, and I arrived at early 12:05, no problem to start early, food first inpressipn from the extremely friendly Pro-Shop manager. Then, I was able to play all 18 holes without seeing any golfer in-front or in-back of me. Very relaxed on a course that is very hilly, but very well kept after their big renovation 3 years ago. Would be nice to have bathrooms along the course open, there were 2 sets built, but they were locked or "Out for the Season".

Terrible Conditions

The fact that they were still charging 75 dollars for the round, with the condition that the course was in, was gross. Fairways baked out, half the greens weren’t even playable, and they must have aerated 2 days prior.

Course was in Terrible Condition

This course usually looks great and plays really well, but I could have never imagined that it could be so poorly taken care of in my round this weekend. Every tee box has barely any grass and is destroyed. Most of the fairways appear baron in some areas with just dry cracked dirt down the way. The greens were not only just aerated but have the same problem of being dry and beat up all around. It seems like they have no sprinklers and have just let the grass go on every hole. $60 dollars for a round is a little bit pricier than most the public courses in the area, and this course just does not seem worth the extra dollars in its current state.
