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.

Decent

Course was in good shape. Fairways were cut well, sand in the bunkers was fresh, and greens were fast but true. It was a tough day because it was so windy and the course was pretty booked, so that made for a slow round. I’d love a chance to play it in better conditions. Also looking forward to seeing how the clubhouse turns out.

Super fun course!

This course has invested a ton of money into bunker sand, seeding, and building a brand new clubhouse set to be complete in about a month. Staff is very friendly. They have a big putting green, snacks and drinks even without a clubhouse presently.

The course is super fun, not very narrow, attackable, but the greens are challenging in a good way. You won't be bored playing this course!

Beckett is Back!

Beckett is Back!

We recently had the pleasure of playing our annual tournament at Beckett Ridge Golf Club and I must say, I was thoroughly impressed with the course's immaculate condition. The greens were rolling, fairways were in great shape and bunkers were actually full of sand. This was an enjoyable and challenging round of golf. We were a little skeptical prior to booking as the course was in poor condition the last few years, but they have totally changed that perception. The course was in awesome shape.

But what truly sets Beckett Ridge Golf Club apart from other courses is the warm and welcoming hospitality of the staff, particularly Zach (GM) and Tony (Pro). From the moment we arrived, they made us feel like family, ensuring that all of our needs were met and that we had a fantastic experience.

The attention to detail and personal touch didn't go unnoticed, and it added an extra layer of enjoyment to an already fantastic round of golf.

Overall, I would highly recommend this course to any golfer that has not played Beckett in a few years due to the poor conditions of the course due to prior owners. The fantastic condition of the course combined with the exceptional hospitality of the staff made for a truly great tournament. They are still working on the clubhouse, but Zach hoped the club house should be open very soon.

Undergoing Renovations should mean cheaper price

Course is undergoing a full renovation but still charging a decent rate. That’s not cool.

Cool Design, fast greens

One of the better & unique designs in Cincy. Course was in good shape and greens were very quick. Priced appropriately for course quality in my opinion. Would recommend for better players. Those with Handicap >10 will likely struggle on the challenging greens.

Shocking Experience

Had an 8:50 tee time Sunday morning. I was a single paired up with a group of three. After checking in I walked over to the tee box. At 8:49 a group of four shows up and says they're 8:50.

The starter says he was instructed by Zachary, course manager, to give the tee box to the "four" sum.

I walk back to the club house assuming there was a mistake. Zackary tells me they booked for three but showed up with four so he give them the box. He said "I should be able to squeeze you in at 9:40"

I state how ridiculous that is and he proceeds to tell me, "That's business. I've been doing this for 40 years, larger group always get priority. If you don't like it leave."

Left and wont be back.

The gentleman and lady working in the restaurant were very kind.

5 star all around

Just finished playing this gem. Located on a ridge in Cincinnati this is one of the tougher courses I’ve played in the area. I was told the course record was 65. I didn’t even sniff that. Shot a solid 82. What a track. After I finished 18, I asked the guy working the pro shop if I could pay and play another 9, he told me to get back out there and have the cart back before dark. Ended up playing 5 holes on the back 9 that gave me trouble on the first go round. Greens were fast and fairways were clean. 10/10 course would recommend to anyone in the area.

This place is a joke

Had a 7:00 am tee time on a Sunday 7/15. Pulled into the parking lot only to see the find several groups waiting for the staff to arrive. After waiting for forty minutes for the staff to arrive my group decided to leave without playing. By the time we left the parking lot was packed, and the staff had yet to show up. Total disaster… This was my last attempt to play this track, what a shame…
