About

Holes 18
Type Public/Resort
Par 72
Length 6670 yards
Slope 138
Rating 73.4

Bear Creek Golf Club's East Course is considered a tad more difficult than the West, with tighter fairways and smaller greens. Fourteen of 18 holes dogleg, so its label as a target course is accurate. Elevation changes make club selection a challenge, and the par 5s are tough to reach in two. No. 5 stands out on the front: a 385-yarder that doglegs left and involves an approach over water. No. 8 is longer (418 yards) and features water in the fairway landing area and along the right side. On the back, no. 15 is the signature, playing 432 yards and tricky because of the blind approach shot.

Bear Creek always offers a challenge.

The course was in great shape and offered a lot of risk reward opportunities. The greens were fast and true. Putting at these speeds were challenging to the average golfer used to playing on slower greens. Be prepared to pay close attention to the amount of break.

Lots of elevation changes

Played the West Course from the silver tees, which on many boxes were only a few yards in front of the blues (which are not back tees). Love the hilly setting here, with many elevated tees. Fairways are really nice. They had applied some fine-textured treatment to the greens, which made them unpredictable and extra fast, so maybe wait a couple of weeks if you want best conditions. Overall good challenge.

Greens were inconsistent and range was closed

I would never pay full price for this course. In my opinion, this is a $60 green fee during prime time. If you can get it for that or less, play it. Otherwise, there are better courses out there.

Bad Day at Golf

Pace of play was terrible. Kids holding up our group all day. Marshall allowed us to play through them TWICE. Yes, I said TWICE. Go figure.

Bad Pairing

The course was in decent shape. The greens had recently been aerated and sanded. So the greens were kind of slow.

My only complaint is with the staff and or starter. I was a single player ( 3 handicap ) who paid to ride.

I was paired up with 2 young boys 14 years old that were walking and not very good.

As any advanced golfer would say not the ideal playing conditions.

One of the best courses in Dallas!

Hands down, one of the best courses in Dallas. I’ve played both East and West, and both are challenging yet super fun. West offers blind yet rewarding tee shots, tight fairways and excellent greens. Highly recommended!
