Bear Creek Golf Club - East Course
Rating Snapshot
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.

Food stand
I have played there twice in the last two weeks and made the turn right at 12:30-1 o’clock and both times there is never any hot food for sale from the food truck outside.
Course is not ready
The course is not ready for serious play as of yet. Areas of fairways are devoid of any grass and greens are slow and unkept. Sand traps are hard
Great Course
This course was well maintained and offered a challenging experience. I would rank this course as one of my top 10 in the DFW metroplex.
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
