Set against the backdrop of the Niagara Escarpment, Chedoke’s Beddoe Course is Hamilton’s most scenic municipal layout. Don’t let the public tag fool you - this is a serious test of golf, wrapped in some of the best urban views in southern Ontario. The course climbs and dips dramatically through the escarpment, demanding creativity with club selection and shot shape. Many holes play either steeply uphill or downhill, giving you a different kind of challenge than most city courses. Fairways are tree-lined, bunkers are smartly placed, and the greens have subtle movement that rewards touch over power. Beddoe’s front nine tests your accuracy; the back nine rewards those who keep their focus late in the round. A few standout holes - like the par-3 that plays across a ravine - are worth the walk alone. It’s a course that feels natural, not manufactured. Add in affordable rates, reliable conditions, and easy access from downtown Hamilton, and you’ve got one of the province’s best public golf values.
