Black Bear Golf Club

Overall great, fairways, greens, tee boxes all money. Staff was awesome. Pace of play perfect even on a Saturday morning. Only complaint is that greens are small and tough to hit but they’re in great shape and makes it more challenging. 5/5 for sure go play it if you can

Thus course has probably the narrowest greens you will ever play. Some less than 10.oaces wide and almost 50 long, and quite often at an angle.

Course had seen some damage from Ian, sand washed from bunkers so they were compact but playable.

Enjoyable layout and some interesting holes.

Definitely one to play again.

I enjoyed Black Bear. It was nice to play a course that has grass (where it matters). I will play it again soon. Great price and a great course.

We booked for a foursome but do to a hurricane 2 day's prior one of our guys had to back out last minute. When the rest of us showed up the person at the register said that the understand and that was okay, now the course is changing me for the tee time because we didn't cancel 24hr in advance. I don't feel this is far due to the hurricane damage.

My first time playing. I’m a 10 handicap and play quite a bit and thoroughly enjoyed the course.; fairways and greens were great. The course layout was challenging but not overly hard and was very fun to play and experience. It’s a shot makers course and was great to test all the clubs.

Stopped in at the turn to grab some food and a beer was told the kitchen was down and just a couple of sandwiches in a warmer. . A few of the greens had weed patches in them along with some of the tee boxes. But over all enjoy playing this course

So first. Course conditions were fair. Some greens diseases and need work but overall average. Pace of play was great. No one in front or behind us. Now the bad. I had a 752 tee time for four. One person woke up with a sore throat so deceived not to play with us. So we showed up with three people and told them we were only three. The guy that runs the pro shop told us no problem, course was empty. We could go off early if we wanted and there was no one behind us for two hours. Well today I get a charge from golf now as black bear told t when we had one no show. So they charged me 60+ dollars. I called the pro shop and explained but they weren’t hearing any of it. They said this was their policy and that’s that. I will never play at this course again. I am a local that has played there many times. But this has left me with a very bad taste and a very poor business decision on their part. But the pro shop manager isn’t a very sharp guy so probably doesn’t look at the big picture .

Fun relaxing day at black bear. Course was in very good condition. Greens had very good pace and were true. A couple of greens were a little bumpy due to being plugged. Fairways and tee boxes were in very good condition. Pace of of play was excellent - played in 3.25 hrs!! Definitely visit and play!!

While some parts of the course were a little scruffy, the fairways and greens were in good shape and the ball was actually rolling in spite of the overabundance of rain we've had in Central FL during the entire month of September. I'd always heard about the green complexes were difficult, but I found them to be fun and not overly penal when you missed the green. While it rained hard enough for me to call it quits after just 9 holes, I am eagerly waiting to play again even though it's a 45-50 minute drive from my house. Loved it!

Had a great time on the course with my wife, who was able to ride along for free! Club house staff was great and very helpful. Course was in good conditions and not busy at all. Would recommend to a friend and will be playing again.

Have not played here in a while and was pleasantly surprised at course condition. Very well maintained and all but one green was in great shape.

Staff very friendly

Very nice challenging course.
