Beechwood in the springtime

Beechwood is always a challenge. The course was in great shape for this early in the spring in NW Indiana. Greens had decent speed and were smooth. Senior tees for the older crowd. Fairways starting to fill out. Great reception in the clubhouse as always. Just a great all around day.

Beechwood is a treat

If I did not live so far from this course, I would be a member. The course does a nice job from tee to green. Leaf control was very good, which can be a problem in the fall. Greens rolled true and fast. I really like this course.

Worth the Trip

I enjoy the older courses built in the gilded period. Nice layout with consistent greens.
Some of the fairway's were bumpy but great value!
Did a replay for $15.00 can't beat that. 36 holes for $40.00.

Always a great time at the Beach!

Beechwood is always a great course. With the lack of rain we have had some spots were very hard and getting a tee in the ground was near impossible in some spots. The greens as always were impeccable. The only thing that could make this place any better would be to have a place to eat on site where you can enjoy food and beverage after your round. If that's all you need I would say your doing pretty good.

Each hole presents a different challenge. There are many mature trees thru out the course. If you like fast greens, you won't be disappointed.

Maybe Just Good Timing

I played this course twice in this week and maybe I'm just pleased with my game, but the course played great. Good conditions on all fairways and greens even though there was a good amount of rain this week. Course is long but mostly a creative layout. Enjoyed playing there considering the very fair rates I've gotten.

Great Deal. Great Staff

We got a great deal on a tee time. The staff was very kind and friendly. He got us out on the course the best way possible considering there was an outing going on at that time. Very happy.

Great value

Beechwood is a long tree lined course that is consistently in great shape. Even this late in the fall the green are fast and in great shape. LaPorte is lucky to have such a fine municipal course.

Oldie and kind of a goodie

Old course. The white tees were long at 6300 yards by average standards so that made it a challenging round. The fairways left a little to be disired and if not for all the rain they would be very hard. As it was they were still a bit hard and we have had a lot of rain this summer. Lots of rolling fairways and some tight shots with trees as a lot of older courses always have. Very good value for the money with Golf Now price. Wasn't busy when I played but if you get behind a slow foursome with some age on them then you can expect it to pay slow especially since it is a lot longer then most courses. I probably wouldn't choose to play here unless I got a good value again because all else being equal on cost of play some other courses are in better shape.

If you need a cheap fix this will work in a pinch

This is an average muni course. When we arrived the gentleman behind the counter sent right out which was nice until we caught a very very slow 4-some. I think they might have been all first timers as we stayed behind them for a couple of holes (35 minutes per hole). They did not wave us through so we jumped a hole in front of them. After that it was fine but it was obvious that other golfers that played earlier in the day did not respect the course. Ball marks not even attempted to be repaired, sand traps were not raked. Maybe we just caught the course on a bad day as the layout of the course is not bad. It is a typical old style course and for the price we paid through golf now was very reasonable ($25).

The golf course is named for a tree: nuff said

Better stay in the fairway! You will encounter mini forests on almost every hole if your tee shots are errant.
I am a senior woman, there were maybe 2 holes that the forward tees were more than a couple yard advantage. That makes it tough to compete when you are playing with your son and husband.
