About

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.

Great track

Really like the West course layout...

You have to incorporate course management & are not hitting Driver on all par 4's and par 5's..

Course gives you a lot of different options to think about throughout the course.

A nice change from the same look /same feel tracks that have several littered throughout DFW,..

Looking forward to playing the East course next!

Thanks to the staff for a great outing..

Decent course

Overall not bad the greens were a bit bumpy and needing of maintenance. The fairway and bunkers were in good shape though. Nice course for the location.

Great Course

First time playing and I really enjoyed the course. A nice mix of water and green protection by bunkers. Course was in good shape and pace of play was great (tee'd off at 7AM). Look forward to hopefully playing the West course soon.

Pairing single players on the same cart

I like this course and always enjoyed a round of golf here. This time the starter wanted to pair me on the same cart with other single player. I informed him I may need to leave earlier and do not want to force someone to return to club house early. He insited that I need to pay extra for the single cart. I told him I paid through GolfNow and it does not indicate anything like that in my reservation. He said he is in charge and will report me to the general manager. He was very rude and combative. The management needs to retrain this guy how to talk to customer and be civilized in his job.

Moved to East course

Marshall was very nice and moved me to East course because there were several kids playing and walking on West course.

Greens were a little bumpy everything else was good

First Time Playing West Course in a few years

Played the West course for the first time in over a year. Fairways and greens are in great shape and pace of play was good considering how crowded it was. Will definitely be back soon to play again.

Good, fun course. A little pricey

Played on a Sunday at 10:18, pace of play was great, staff was very friendly, course was in decent condition and good amenities. A few things to work on: bunkers have actual piles of gravel in them, not awesome. New carts are nice, but the geofencing is a bit aggressive. I was also a little surprised that they didn’t offer a small bucket of balls to warm up with, especially at $90 a round, I felt this was a little steep for conditions.

Winter conditions

Had to wait at every hole for second shot. Greens were bumpy and hairy greens. Tee marker colors did not match score card. Card says Silver marker, but course marker was green.

Slowest course ever played

Played our round in Five and half hours! Incredible!

Likely a good course in the summer but during the winter - definitely avoid! Not worth the money but watched a lot of planes fly by.

We waited after nearly every shot with no Marshall in sight.

The cart girl definitely made money!

Try again under better conditions

Played this course once before and liked it just fine. Very slow pace of play that day. This time the earlier part of the week was wet and we had to play the entire 18 holes cart path only. There was no mention of that when we checked in and found out when we got on the course. The starter did not mention it either.

Course touts GPS and its mounter on the steering column where i is difficult to see. Very poor set up and its digital only no course layout available.

Might try the East course since I haven't played that side yet. For $75 not somewhere that will be a regular in my course rotation. Played this one because its conveniently located between me and the person I play with occasionally.
