Bear Creek Golf Club - West Course

If pace of play is an issue for you to be consistent, don't play here! We only played 14 holes and that was almost 4.5 hours, we left! At one point there on a hole there were 5 groups. For all of us, we are not PGA players, its called ready golf and for God sakes don't spend 10 minutes looking for your ball just drop and move on.

I just got sick night before and it wouldn’t let me cancel tee times ,my Fault

Overall about a 4* for me. Greens were in great condition. But being right next to an airfield... We probably had 100 planes fly over throughout the round. Pace of play was bad, but also labor day weekend

Horrible course to play. Bunkers full of water. No cart beverages on the course. Asked for hot dogs at the concession and received smoked, greasy sausage. Would not recommend this course to anyone.

To many people on the course Waited on every hole to play 4.5 hrs only played 14 holes. Quit and went home. Won’t play there any time soon.

The layout of the course is challenging but the pace of play is horrific and no one on the course enforcing the speed of play so I won’t be back. There was also a couple of guys behind us who felt compelled to hit in to us twice. There are plenty of better options in Dallas so I would steer clear of this course.

Had a 7:50 tee time. So you figure pace would be still fairly open. When we should have been on deck, the 1st was stacked and was told that we were 30 minutes behind and there was a twosome that is causing the bottleneck. We were informed that they had no Marshalls and that the GPS will tell groups if they are falling behind. The started then would tell each group behind the next that that group was a bunch of complainers about being bottlenecked. Our round was just over 5 hours. But I don't think it was just that twosome, as both courses seemed to have stacked up starting groups. Other than that. The course layout is great, nice to see large trees with plenty of shade to try and escape the heat.

Really good course for the price

Excellent condition

Starter extra friendly

Played with a member named John which made the experience even better

It took 5 1/2 hours to play. There needs to be a marshal on the course to keep play moving.

First off let’s start with the positives, great layout and greens were quick at times but overall true. Course is well taken care of when it comes to fairways but the bunkers are straight red dirt but this is understandable with Covid conditions. Honestly this course feels like a extension of the airport, the clubhouse fees like apart of the terminal and the staff both in clubhouse and on the course have no personality or courtesy. I really doubt people that love close to bear creek call the course a regular. Pace of play is really rough and there was no marshal the entire round. The course lacks personality and when your out in the Texas heat that’s what you come for. Great for a hot deal but wouldn’t ever pay full price to play again. This seems to be a standard of Arcis courses but whatever, if you profit you win. Probably a last resort if you live in the area.

My first time to play this course as I live in Austin, TX and visiting a friend at the time. I will be back to play this course no doubt.
