Beckett Ridge Golf Club

Becketts Ridge probably has good greens, but they were just aerated, so I couldn't tell.
Awesome views for Ohio! Lost of up and down hill.
A few holes with great risk-reward set up, but most holes you can figure out the first time from the tee.

playing golf in March is always a gamble. We chose Beckett Ridge for the cost on GolfNow. I was pleasantly surprised when we arrived at the course and all of the fairways and rough were green and plush. The greens were still aerated but all in all good conditions. There were a lot of fun holes that made you hit tough golf shots.

Great bang for the buck... You've known you played a great course when you get though 18.

This course is not very challenging, not very well kept up, and not very beautiful. If you don't mind a course of lower difficulty for a decent price then you'll enjoy it. Staff was very friendly I must say.

Course in good shape for end of December play..
No amenities available and pro shop way to busy.

Like many of the municipal courses the course needs a lot of attention. The greens are fast but need some attention. Cart pathses are very rough.

The course was in good shape. Fairways were recently mown with very few brown spots. The greens were fast but rolled true.

Tee'd off at 1PM on a Wednesday, had a tee time but no one was there to control who went off. waited 3 groups before teeing off THEN came the longest game of my life. 2.5 hours for 7 holes... and that was me skipping 3 holes of old men taking their sweet time.
GET A RANGER AND STARTER!!!

I recently got back into golf... and I am still horrible. That being said, Beckett Ridge is a challenging, tight course. I was probably better suited to leave my driver in the bag. The terrain was fun, especially on the greens. I would play this course again, just not anytime soon.

Nice course, well maintained, with plenty of challenge in the variety of layout. Sand traps could stand to be better maintained, and adding a starter and course marshall could help organize players at the first tee, and encourage faster pace of play. Good value for the price, though.

Each Hole was challenging. The cart paths and the parking lot were way too rough. I hope they repair and pave the cart path and parking lot soon.

What used to be one of the best courses in Cincinnati, is no more than an average Muni at this point. The course is no longer groomed and the greens were fast but ridden hard and beaten up. Play took well over 5 hours - no ranger to be found. I was told to make sure I stopped at the bar for drinks, since no serving cart existed on a Sunday at 1:00. Make sure you bring a water cup - they charge $1 for a cup of tap water. It is a solid track of golf, if managed properly. But this owner is bleeding it for all he can.

The pace of play was almost unbearable. First time in my life I thought about walking off the course!

Nice layout. Challenging greens. Tight first nine while the back nine opens up. Several blind shots. Tees and cart paths need some work. Everyone in the foursome says they would play the course again

Course was in good condition, a few greens were a bit marked up but otherwise tee to green it was nice. Sand traps were very well maintained!

Now, the cart paths are a different matter. If I were them I'd be starting to worry about liability issues and potential cart damage, they're in that bad a shape in a lot of places. Giant potholes all over the place, portions are completely disintegrated into loose gravel. If you're not paying attention you can get to bouncing really bad, real quick and either tear up a cart or lose control and (in a few spots) end up down a hill.

Driving range is closed! We were offered to hit their three balls in to a net in a room.

Tee boxes are still mostly dirt, it has been like this as long as I can remember.

Look where you're going and go slow there is as much cart path missing as available....

The greens are VERY soft, so porous you can hardly fix your ball mark. Seems like mostly sand under? So... there are many bad looking spots but they're smooth enough.

Pace of play was terrible. No starters. No rangers on course. Staff unfriendly and not very accommodating. I would not recommend this course if you want to play a steady, evenly paced round. They stack their tee times and pace is extremely slow.

The fairways and Greens are in very good condition. The course has some challenging holes, which I like. this course has some hilly sections so that makes it interesting. The roughs are playable so there is some forgiveness on errant shots. I played on a Thursday in the early afternoon on a hot day so the course was not crowded and our twosome got around in less than 4 hours. All-in-all, a good day. The only minor negative I noticed was that some of the cart paths need updating.

The course was in good shape and offered plenty of challenges. The par 3s are tricky except for hole 4. Elevation changes throughout add to the challenges and keep things interesting. A few blind drives make the first time out a little tricky but not too bad. I play courses all over the area and this has as much to offer as any of them. We played in 4 hours, interaction with staff was enjoyable and I will be back for sure

Decent public track, played first 5 holes in just over an hour. Then we caught a course authorized five some, and had 3 groups stacked up on number 7. Waited over half hour to tee off, and then it took over 4 hours to play the last 13 holes. Called in nicely and nothing was done to speed up play. Lip service. First time there, and last time. Too slow.
