Holes 18
Type Public/Resort
Par 72
Length 6690 yards
Slope 137
Rating 73.3

Conveniently located adjacent to the DFW Airport, Bear Creek Golf Club serves up two Ted Robinson-designed, 18-hole masterpieces that are known for their stunning topography and outstanding greens. And with both golf courses playing around 6,700 yards from the tips, golfers can hit long irons and fairway woods off the tee to keep it in the fairway, which is mandatory for a good round on these tight courses. Bear Creek's West Course is demanding early, and is significantly more difficult on the front side. However, the back side opens up and allows some room for error, making this the track of choice for the high handicapper. Nos. 6 and 7 stand out on the demanding front. No. 6 requires a blind tee shot and an approach over water, and no. 7 might be the most difficult on the golf course: a 380-yard par 4 that plays into the wind and also involves water. The back side has the signature hole, the scenic 180-yard 17th, which plays along a lake.

Bear Creek West was nice

Played the blue tees with the three young guys I got paired with. It’s always fun to play with guys who out drive me. Y 100 yards, but still score better! It’s an interesting and complex track.

4some All Star trip

Great course. Good price. One mistake. $80 for rental clubs is a bit much. 40-50$ is good. Definitely not great for traveling clients who don't have their clubs. Burned $250 in rentals today. Easy fix. Otherwise offer premium clubs for the 80. Not your only style. Outside of that. Love the course.

Bear Creek East was darn good

Actually played here something like 20 years ago so it was still all new to me. Lots of interesting and challenging holes. Some but few and far between bare spots on the fairways. Greens in excellent condition.

This course was a challenge.

I’m glad that I chose this Bear Creek, out of so many and I will choose it again whenever I visit Irving Texas again. Staff were extremely friendly.

Hidden gem

Took me 24 years to finally get in this course. Played the East course. Very well kept, good pace of play, if you stayed in the fairway , it was a nice track. If you went into the rough, and or trees, you got hammered. . Will definitely play again.
