Great Value better staff

Staff was A+. Friendly and accommodating.

The course was in good condition. The greens are fantastic. In my opinion, the fairways need more grass. More blades per square. I gave the layout 3 stars because there are a few holes where the next tee is too close to the previous green. Possibly putting golfers in danger (11th tee comes to mind).

Overall it's a great value and I would golf here again.

I played Solo on a perfect weather day. Monday 11am tee time. Played in 3 hours. I didn't wait on a single shot and I was able to play at my own pace with no one behind me.

They had gotten some storms the night before, which had made many areas wet and a lot of limbs down.

Beechwood

My wife and I like playing Beachwood, but the course is set up for being too long for women. There wasn’t much difference between men’s gold and women’s red tees.

Beechwood Golf Course

This is one of my favorite golf courses in the Midwest. The greens are some of the best, if you like fast greens. It’s an older course with established tree lines. There’s an assortment of risk/reward holes.

Wow! Honestly Shocked!

I am shocked by this course! The price point is incredible for what you get. Staff is great and pace of play is fine. Fairways are like most any Muni and the rough is tough. A lot of risk reward scenarios and I enjoyed myself. THESE GREENS ARE INCREDIBLE. Some of the purest greens I have honestly played at any price point. 10/10 would

recommend to anybody of any skill level.

The course is in great shape. The best I've ever seen it. We played on a late Saturday afternoon, it was still busy but not super slow. I look forward to coming back.

Beechwood golf course classic

A great city course built in the 1930’s

A great layout with good greens. It was pristine in the 70’s but has undergone changes due to extensive overgrowth of large oak and maple trees and numerous storms which has resulted in loss of some trees . The tee boxes are just average but greens are in good condition. The fairways are adequate and well manicured but the rough is thick and the general maintenance is not fantastic. Obviously they need more resources and staff to take out stumps and clean up waste areas. The course has many areas of adjoining wetlands that are creeping in making some areas quite wet. The staff are friendly and everyone there is doing the best they can with limited resources. I’m prejudiced because I played it in it’s heyday but changes to holes 16 and 18 make the finish great(some big trees are gone and esthetically and routing wise is an improvement. # 17 is a par 5 dogleg right that is not my favorite due to low areas and tightness of landing areas—- you’ll see! I think it’s a challenging fun course for a muny. Give it a try!! Thanks to the grounds crew and pga staff.

Great greens.

Nice layout. Great greens. Great value. Lot of sticks and branches and leaves laying around. Stormed the night before so could've been from that. Otherwise no complaints.
