Beacon Ridge Golf & Country Club
About
Beacon Ridge Golf and Country Club, a Gene Hamm design on rolling, wooded terrain, opened in 1989. This well-maintained course has bermudagrass fairways and bentgrass greens.
Perhaps what sets Beacon Ridge apart from a number of other courses in the Pinehurst area is its variety. Just about every hole has its own character. The greens are mostly large and sloped. You will find adequate room off the tee, but if you miss the fairway, you’ll end up in deep rough and pine trees and might not find your ball. Play conservative and keep your ball in play.

Outstanding Course
Excellent course. I really enjoyed the elevated greens and the views surrounding the course. Will definitely play this course again!
great course for the money only 15 min from Pinehurst
Very friendly staff to start. Played in March everything dorment but greens were great but a little tricky. Short drive from pinehurst and will add it to our stop every spring. Great value with Golf Now hot sale. Somewhat challenging, but very straight forward and can score on some holes. Not super long and even for us longer hitters there are a couple of reachable par 4's and got to a lot of par 5's in two. Seemed like a lot of bunkers surrounding all greens. No gimiks just great course.
This course deserves respect
Beacon Ridge has several holes to challenge your golf skills, and some that will allow you to score. Elevation changes and water will ensure that you choose the correct club and make a solid shot so as to eliminate those bigger numbers on your card.
A very enjoyable course to play
The Clubhouse impresses immediately. The Pro Shop staff was friendly and helpful. The golf cart was in good shape, no GPS but the course has yardage marked on the sprinklers. Very few holes where you were restricted to cartpaths (par 3's). The first hole is a great starting par 5 that gives a good first impression. The par 4's are not long but because the course is a bit hilly the second shots play a little long and require extra club but there are four sets of tees so you can pick your yardage. On course facilities are porta-potties on both nines. Houses are scattered throughout the course but they do not come into play. The fairways are quite wide with bunkers strategically placed but not too abundant. and there is water only on a few holes Many of the greens were a little small with a fair but of undulation but they all ran pretty quick. My spouse and I both enjoyed playing this course.
