Beckett Ridge Golf Club was designed by Jack Kidwell, a well known name in Ohio golf. The course has a classic design that is inlaid with meandering streams that weave through stands of mature trees. The rolling landscape was deftly incorporated into the golf course. The layout offers a variety of holes ranging from long to short, tight to open. It is definitely a course that requires some strategy. One of the most memorable holes is the par-5 fifth. It measures 541 yards, but this downhill hole plays much shorter. There are out-of-bounds on either side and the tricky fairway slopes right to left but with some strategy and a little skill it is possible to make it home in two. Beckett Ridge is one of Southwest Ohio's best golf courses.

Course being upgraded.

Has been 3 years since I last played Beckett Ridge. There is a new owner and you can tell he is trying to get the course in much better playing condition. The fairways and greens were in excellent condition today with a few brown spots on the fairways but did not hurt playing condition. Sand traps are in need of sand as some of traps are rocky and muddy (why not fill in a few of the traps, like a few other course, to minimize maintenance cost). Cart paths are in need of repair as holes makes for rough ride. All and all if new management continue improvements this course is going to be a gem in the future. Off course amenities are lacking currently. Highly recommend playing this course as it is a good layout as long as you can keep ball out of the bad traps.

Consistent

Course is consistently in good to great condition. Layout has more elevation change than I'd remembered. Greens were fast and relatively true. The day we played a few pins were in, frankly, unfair positions, especially for weekend golfers. No ranger presence to keep groups moving quickly, which held us up a bit, but it wasn't egregious. Price is right. Recommended.

Has come a long way

I can tell this owner has put time and money into the course. I have played here many times over the years but haven’t been there in a year of two. When I got out this time it’s was a new course. Will be back soon.

5 some

Had a five-some in front of us but at least they kept it moving. Couple of them playing best ball.
On the bright side we were early and they let us go off as soon as we got there

Great Course

One of the best natural course lay outs in the Cincinnati area. The new management team is turning the course around. Some areas are still in process but it is still great to play. You'll definitely use all the clubs in your bag.

The staff are friendly and helpful and made the day even better for my son and I.

Most underrated course in Cincy area. Challenging but fun

New owners/management staff have revamped this place. Plays long, super fast greens, amazing conditions. New cart paths, new carts, new parking lot, new club house. Only thing missing is a driving range!

Most underrated course in Cincy. Challenging but must play.

Always in great shape. Very fast greens. New cart paths, new club house, new carts. Course management has put in a lot of work. Challenging, but fun. Highly recommend. Some fringes need a little bit for work, but that’s about it.

Best around

I'm telling you this course is now the best around!!!!! Every hole is different with tons of character. The course itself is looking/playing awesome. Also, there's no more knocking them for an unpaved parking lot and cart paths.... they're all asphalted. No more travel trailer either, because the clubhouse is done. The bunkers are even 💲. If you haven't been here lately you need to get on over there. CONGRATULATIONS to everyone associated with bringing this gem back!!!!!

Great Course w/ new clubhouse and new cart paths

First time playing Beckett. Nice, old school layout. Everything was in great condition even for November 13th. New clubhouse and cart paths show the owners are working to improve the course facilities. No driving range, though.
