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.

Very good course

Played in February after a few days of profuse rain. The course was in very good condition, the greens very well kept. We played in less than 4 hours, and the amenities were nice with decent food. Very good value for money, and it's open on Mondays!!!

Bear Creek

Played on a cold and sunny Friday afternoon at 1150. Got there early and had lunch at the restaurant. Good meal with pleasant service. Check in was easy and friendly. Starter explained the course, and got us out a few minutes early. Pace of play was 3.5 hours (Wow). We saw the cart girl 3 times on the front and twice on the back. The greens were good, as were the fairways. There were quite a few leaves on the course, but we are about 3 weeks from them being completely gone for the rest of the winter.

Overall, we really enjoyed ourselves, and will be back.

Bunkers very uneven. Many greenside had less than 1 inch sand before hitting concrete liner. Most fairway bunkers had too much sand.

Good golf with good guys

I tend to make single player tee times and occasionally get paired with ……. Well this round I was paired with 2 great guys… both singles… and we had similar games. It was cold as a miners keester and a howling wind… but otherwise a good round (I SHOT 80) with great company. Can’t ask for more.

Tight fairways, quick greens

The course was in excellent shape for late November. Fairways were gorgeous! Very narrow course, not a whole lot of room for error. Had a couple tough holes. I’m a 3.9 hcp and carded an 85. A lot of that was knowing where to miss and I missed a lot lol.
