Switzerland of Ohio (Alternate Tees) Course
Switzerland of Ohio Country Club
About this course
Switzerland of Ohio Country Club occupies rolling terrain in southeastern Ohio's Monroe County, near the village of Beallsville. The course takes its name from the hilly topography characteristic of this part of Appalachian Ohio, where elevation changes and wooded valleys create a landscape distinct from the flatter farmland found elsewhere in the state. The region's natural contours provide the foundation for a layout that moves through varied elevations and requires golfers to navigate both uphill and downhill shots throughout the round. The course serves a rural community in an area known more for its natural resources and small-town character than for golf tourism. Like many country clubs in smaller Ohio towns, it functions as a social and recreational center for local members and their families. The routing works with the available land to create holes that reflect the surrounding landscape, incorporating the ridges and hollows typical of this part of the Ohio Valley. The "Alternate Tees" designation indicates multiple teeing options that allow the course to play at different lengths and challenge levels, accommodating various skill levels within the membership. This flexibility is common at clubs serving diverse player populations, from competitive golfers to recreational members and juniors learning the game.

Getting there
The journey to Switzerland of Ohio Country Club begins at Pittsburgh International Airport, roughly ninety minutes northwest across the Pennsylvania-West Virginia border into the rolling Appalachian foothills of eastern Ohio. The drive traces the Ohio River valley before turning inland through quiet farm country and wooded ridges, the landscape growing increasingly remote as you approach Beallsville. This is golf at the edge of civilization - no private terminals, no resort signage - just a winding country road that eventually reveals one of America's most enigmatic and fiercely protected layouts, hidden in plain sight among the hills where Ohio, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia converge.
