Pretty good

Nice and open. most greens/fairways in good condition. only complaint i really have is that the tee off signs and pathways are facing the wrong way or confusing, making it a bit tricky to navigate.

Disgusted

tee off area Dirt..minimal grass

Bumpy Greens

Fairways like rock

No course marshals

No yardage markers

Greens on many holes bad shape

Golfnow should remove this course

Many homeless waying into trash cans

Hikers walking alongside holes..hazards

Suggest Hamilton Turn Course into park Only...

Add in low income Housing for homelessness..

Disgusting experience...Zero Golf etiquette from other Group Idiots..Zero Class

Don't go There

Have played the Beddoe numerous times but this is without a doubt the worst conditions there that I have experienced. Covid 19 restrictions, the summer drought and lack of maintenance have certainly taken their toll. My overall "poor" rating is based primarily on these conditions.

Don't get me talking about the excessive goose droppings but there were more than excessive droppings. Greens were aerated and/or in the process of aeration but there was no notification on the Golfnow website of this. Consequently they were painfully slow.It had rained the night before which left many of the tee boxes very muddy which made footing a challenge. Fairways were rock hard in many places, grassless and full of weeds. Therefore, it was very difficult to find a decent lie on them.

Therefore, I would take a pass on the course until 2021.

Nice course to start with

Really good value for money here. Course was at times a bit difficult to navigate as holes were not well signposted. Luckily had someone with me that knew the course otherwise I would still be looking for hole 11! This was a nice wide open course and the hills really benefited me in terms of distance. However the open-ness was also a bit of a disservice as it was really easy to hit into and get hit by other players.

A real gem!.

Situated in Hamilton on the escarpment, this municipal course is an absolute gem. With a variety of par 5s and 3s and a thoughtful layout and great price, you can’t go wrong.
