Bear Creek Golf Club - West Course
About
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 shape for winter golf
The course was still drying out from heavy rains earlier in the week and most of the traps were washed out. That part was great because you could pull your ball for free drop; ground under repair. The fair ways and greens were well maintained. Marshall’s and beverage carts made frequent rounds.
Beautiful course
Lots of trees, par 3’s are challenging
Course is well kept,. Played the east course
Greens are well kept...
Would consider this course on a regular basic
Great Course
Beat Creek is a very nice course that requires some good shots to play. I 100% recommend you play this course if you never played it before.
Greatest Course
The course was one of the best I have ever played. I will definitely play it again. The golf cart was terrible. We barely made it through our round.
5 1/2 hr day.
How can you expect to get any repeat business when it's a 5 1/2 hr day. Saturday morning at 9:00 am. The Marshall showed up on hole 18 and was only interested in the tourney ....behind us. The layout is very good. The greens were in very good shape but I'd rather drive an hour, play 18 in 4 hrs and head home.
No thanks on the replay. We'll go somewhere else.
Packed, terrible pace
Two and a half hours to play 7 hours. Two group wait at each tee box. Construction on at least a third of the holes hindering play. We used to play this course a lot. Now over crowded and not worth 80 bucks (two golfers) for a round. Won’t be returning any time soon.
First time will be back!
Played west and was great! Bring your putting game. Only complaint was the carts, had issues and died on me on the last hole... but they came to rescue quickly! Need new carts.
sand?
everything was fine except for "sand traps".let's just call them bunkers.
Great Shape
Entire course is in fantastic condition especially the greens. Good pace of play never had to wait. Marshall’s are on the course monitoring play.
Nice track
Bear Creek West is a nice track. It is in good shape and the ace of play was great except for one slow foresome but they let me play through in short order.
Slow play. Great conditions, except for bunkers.
check in staff and starter were extremely friendly and helpful. Fairways and greens were perfect. Bunkers are not sand, but some clay dirt mix with a hard base. Chunk and run bunkers shots are about all you can do. As usual at Bear Creek, play was very slow. Four some in front of us were holding up the entire course.
Stable course
Played this course several times and each time have had a mixed bag experience. This time was different and had a great experience...the fairways and greens were in great shape.
Get out and play this course!
An hour wait for a golf cart
Course was overbooked due to a tournament on Saturday, and had no carts available for daily fee players. Waited an hour for a cart. Then the course was backed up, we waited 20 mins on 1 tee for 4 other foursomes to tee off. Its 100 degrees out, and non of their water stations had water.
Terrible experience. Paid for 18 holes, but left after 9. And, will never go back.
The planes don't bother you
This is a great little course with 2 full length 18-hole courses on them. So the variety is great. The holes here are tricky and are in great shape all year round somehow.
During the last winter, somehow their fairways were bright green.
Very nice. Fun to play
I was told that the greens were aerated about 3 weeks ago. Just starting to come back and was a bit slow. Course layout is nice. I think better than the West course. Great Hot Deal online then when I arrived about an hour before my tee time I was asked if I wanted to go early and was sent out right away. Lots of trees and really, a nice fun course to play. Give it a go. Thumbs up!!!
Love these two courses
Pretty course, in great condition, greens are in great condition. Some very interesting and challenging holes. Definitely will play again.
