Beekman Country Club - Taconic/Highland

About
Tucked away in the foothills of the Berkshires, Beekman Country Club sits right where the mountains rise from the Hudson Valley, which provides spectacular views throughout the 27-hole golf course. Divided into three nines, the holes offer three different 18-hole courses with unique but equally scenic vistas. The Taconic/Highland combination starts with the most challenging nine of the three and ends with the most picturesque. The Taconic nine features narrow fairways and tricky water hazards. The back nine hardly gets any easier. The Highland climbs up over 500 feet, giving golfers a panoramic view from the valley to Stormville Mountain. The par-3 fourth hole on the Highland nine is the club's signature. Noted for its beauty, the hole is especially stunning in the springtime when the dogwood trees that line its fairways are in full bloom.

Solid course
Played Taconic and Highland in the p.m. We seemed to wait on every shot but still finished in 4 hours. Looked dry but didn't play like it. Overall in good shape considering the play it gets. Generous fairways. Seemed to play longer for some reason. The greens are it's best defense. Subtle breaks you cannot see unless you've played before. Restaurant also worth a stop. Standard fare in good portions and good value, served hot. Nice selection of beers on tap.
Wonderful Course
Well-maintained, beautifully landscaped golf course. I thoroughly enjoyed playing at this course as did my entire foursome.
The tees and greens are beautifully kept and the fairways were very well groomed. Enjoyable course.
Good course
Had a good round today, the course was in good shape. No divot repair spread in any of the carts / maybe a Covid thing. The food was very good back at 19 and a good selection of beers. Would definitely come back!
Good Condition!
Good value, Nice green, tee box, fairway. Only issue was little pack, waited almost every hole, but still manager to finished 18 in 4 hours, first 9 Valley took 2 hours 15 minutes, and Taconic 9 took 1 hours 30 minutes. Will play here again!
Not bad for the price
I've played Beekman a million times in my life. For the longest time, I had always played the Highland 9, and the Taconic 9. Recently I was really hoping to play the Valley 9 because I hadn't played it in about 10 years. Well the past two times out, I've had the opportunity to play Valley, and I have to say... Please put me on Highland/Taconic going forward. Valley is not a very good 9. 3 par 5s, 3 par 3s, and 3 par 4s. It just feels like they really tried to squish 9 holes into the corner of that property. #12 is an awful hole. #16 is also an awful hole.
I'd only recommend this course to someone if they were guaranteed not to play the Valley 9. Serviceable course, but rough around the edges on the Valley 9.
Highland
Tees: 3.5/5
Fairways: 3.5/5
Bunkers: 3.5/5
Greens: 4/5
Valley
Tees: 2/5 (Don't even get me started about hole #11. There isn't a single flat spot on that tee box and there's probably a 3-4 foot rise from the back of the tee box to the front of the tee box. Just terrible.)
Fairways: 3.5/5
Bunkers 1/5 (These bunkers are just 100% different from the Highland bunkers. Hard and packed dirt. They aren't sand)
Greens: 4/5
Cloudy day
I found the course to be in great shape and I totally enjoyed it.
