Beckett Ridge Golf Club

About
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.

10th Hole at Beckett Ridge Photo submitted by Wahwah87 on 04/10/2013
Beckett ridge Golf course
Love this course as my home course but needs way better overall maintenance. Was so pure in the month of June and have never seen a course go downhill so quickly. Figure it out quick
Unkept tee boxes, slow slow play, not worth it
Most of the ladies tees were in really bad shape. They were slanted and not well kept. There were many times they were just in the rough or fairway and weren't actual tee boxes. Lots of spots on the fairways were just dry patches of dirt too.
There was no driving range so we couldn't warm up how we wanted to. The carts beeped at us that we were in restricted areas pretty much every hole, even when we were on the designated cart paths. We also kept getting messages to keep up pace, but we were sitting at every tee box waiting for groups in front of us to keep moving. At hole 18 there were 3 groups at the tee box waiting.
The staff were nice and the grab and go food options were good at the clubhouse. But overall, it wasn't worth and money and we won't be back.
They will rip you off if it rains - No Raincheck
Heavy storm for several hours at tee time. Jim at the course refused to give another tee time or raincheck.
Cost me $100 for two tee times.
Don’t play here, I won’t.
Nice places with some issue
The course is one of the greatest golf courses in Cincinnati. If staff members warmly welcome golfers, it can put them in a good mood, One of the worst aspects i the workers who cut grass lacking work ethic and etiquette. Golfers had to wait until the workers passed by which broke a normal playing pace. They did not recognize how much terrible such bad work habits. Specifically, the lawn mower workers did not stop working even when golfers were playing. They blew wind, spreading cut grass towards the golfers, which was a horrible experience.
Tried Beckett Ridge again after playing about 10 days ago in the hope that pace of play would be better. Took 36 minutes to finish first two holes and then I found myself waiting on 3rd tee for what would have been at least 5 more minutes to tee off and people behind me about to pile up. Felt like I was looking at a 5+ hours round at that point - if I got lucky. So I turned aroundd and went back to clubhouse, unloaded and left. Nice course - have played there many times. But recently, too crowded with slow players. Will probably not play there again.
Left after 9 holes when I saw a group on 10 tee with two groups waiting to tee off.
Excessive ball marks
This was my 2nd time playing here in the past month. I don't remember there being so many unrepaired ball marks the first time. Maybe the pin placement needs changed more often? And players just need to clean up their ball marks in general.
I had the misfortune of getting in 4 to 5 sand traps this second time playing. They were very shallow sand, with clay underneath. They could use more sand.
Enjoyed round.
Scorching hot 4th of July and course was quiet so we moved along nicely. Enjoyed the course, back 9 more so.
fun course to ourselves
Two of us played this course and didn't see another golfer for 18 holes. Terrific day! Beautiful morning. Lot of ups and downs and several blind shots, but that made this course fun. Definitely great value for the money.
Great value. Front 9 could use some work
$50 w cart of GolfNow was a great deal. Enjoyed the layout, the back 9 I felt was significantly nicer/more challenging. The cart paths and grass along the tee blocks of the front 9 could use some attention. Paths eroded and lots of dead patches. But we enjoyed our round and would return. Not having a cart out on 100 degree day was surprising as could have used some hydration Marshall was very personal.
Great Course
Fun and well taken care of. Pace of play is good and the staff is friendly.
Great Course
Course was in excellent condition. Starter gave helpful tips for a 1st time playing the course. Greens sloped back to front and staying below the hole is definitely a key to scoring. Pace of play was awesome (finished 18 under 4 hours). Will play again when in the area.
