About

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.

Pace too slow to play a round

Had some type of tourney that morning, then I guess they decided to shotgun everyone they could off at noon, only got 15 holes in before dark. Thats too much to pay for 2/3rds of a round.

Rude Starter, Great course

We drove up to the number 1 tee box 5 minutes early and looked around for the starter and was nowhere to be found. We noticed the group before us already on the green so we decided to go ahead and tee off exactly at our schedule tee time (3:11) . The starter finally shows up with an attitude telling us we need to check with starter before we tee off and we shouldn’t have started without checking in. We told him we looked for him as was nowhere to be found. He said he was busy with the other course. He just wasn’t professional or friendly and rubbed us the wrong way. It wasn’t the best way to start a round of golf. Everything else was great though! The cart girl Sahara was friendly and helpful! Course is in very good shape.

Not worth the price

Use to love playing this course, but last outting it took 3.5 hrs to get to number 11, no chance of getting 18 in so basically the price per hole doubled. C'mon you gotta do better than this. 5 carts backed up every hole and 10-15 mins to wait between shots-

A pleasant round of golf

My wife and I played the East course for the first time. Lots of trees and several blind shots, but overall a great day.

Slow play

Hate to give this type review, but pace was completely unacceptable, despite several attempts of course officials to motivate the group ahead of us.

Great design and good conditions.

Probably the best condition course I have played this long hot summer. Really like the design. It was a little slow, but I think that may have been the groups in front versus overloading the course. The Marshall did eventually talk the the group ahead and pace picked up substantially.
