Beekman Country Club - Valley/Taconic

About
The 27 holes at Beekman Country Club enjoy a serene mountain setting nestled within the foothills of the Berkshires, just as they rise from the Hudson Valley. The golf course is divided into three nines: the Valley, Taconic, and Highland; that are played in three different 18-hole combinations. The Valley/Taconic course offers both scenery and challenges. The Valley nine tumbles across rolling terrain and its sixth hole is home to one of the country's largest oak trees. The Taconic nine is the most difficult of the three. It is just as scenic as the other two nines but you can't let that distract you. Accuracy is needed to maneuver the tight fairways. There are also several tricky water hazards throughout the golf course, most notably protecting the front of the green on Taconic's sixth hole.

great muni
great pace of play for a Sunday. course in great shape and walk able if you like. close to highway and easy access.
Great day at Beekman
First time at Beekman for all four in our group. Played the Highlands and Valley. Course is in great shape...very friendly staff...great pace of play....excellent lunch in restaurant. No negatives. Highly recommend
Great course, great value
Had a morning tee time on 10/17/20. It's a really nice course! We played Valley and Taconic. Valley 9 was challenging, a lot of hill shots - I preferred the Taconic 9.
Staff unfriendlisness
2nd and last time. During Covid all courses should offer you the opportunity to drive solo. Their plastic divider is not the answer. They are the only course that I've played that won't allow you to drive solo. Very unfriendly people that work at the starters jailhouse. If they could just be nice and welcoming. If you're not from the area, you're treated like an unwelcomed guest.
Great course
great course, even better price! Would love for the leaves to be cleaned up a little better as we lost a couple of balls on the fairway due to leaves but other than that it was great, will be back to play more rounds
View of some holes were breathtaking.
Many golfers were gathering and playing in one hole. It was 5 hours playing time. Mostly senior golfers were playing at this golf course for this reason it was so slow. Anyhow I saw some holes were a great view on top of Mountain side. Specially this Fall season it was much more beautiful scenic around hole.
Length of back of tee was not too long but it was challenging and needs managing how you hit the ball.
I drove 1h and half from city. It was also enjoyable driving mountain narrow Tanconic Pkwy. Relax and enjoy view of mountain.
Unacceptable
I arrived more than 20 mins prior to my 8:40 scheduled tee time. As I pulled into the lot I noticed a huge crowd of golfers (approximately 30-40) and nobody on the course. I checked in at the booth and was asked to load up and provide my cart number. I did, as instructed and was not informed what the delay was about. After about 15 mins I asked another golfer who was waiting and learned they were running an hour and a half behind because of a frost delay. I wouldn’t have gotten out until after 10am for my tee time (on a football Sunday, absolutely NOT!) I drove all the way from CT to play this course. I went into the pro shop and asked for a refund (paid green fees upfront on Golf Now). They indicated they would “handle it” and not to contact GN as it may delay my refund. I’m still waiting for my $70+ to be put back on my card and have no confirmation number that they did so. Needless to say, this was a horrible way to spend a Sunday morning that I woke up early for. I feel as a loyal GN customer I should be compensated for my inconvenience... just saying.
*** Note I tried to upload a pic showing the backlog at the starters booth but your app constantly makes me start over and won’t save my information ***
Very nice late afternoon nine holes
Good, challenging course (Highland nine), well kept. Helpful staff.
Great hidden gem
first time me and my buddy played this course and absolutely loved it. Fair, fun and challenging at the same time. 100% will be back great hidden gem i found. Played 18 and loved it so much played all 27. All 3 nines great.
Beekman Rookie
Course was in great shape. Check in was very "unfriendly". Asked for an individual cart and was told "no". That's ridiculous during these times. Need to be more accommodating. Everything else was great. You find that the starters at most of these courses seem to have a chip on their shoulder. Just be nice and let people enjoy their round of golf.
Good Day Golfing
Great course for the money. Friendly staff, well maintained. Not too challenging but still fun and different.
