A little jewel in bfe

coooool course, greeens a bit slow but in great shape and rolled true. The layout is fun, a bit hilly vs the ocean courses, but good visually and interesting to play . Pick your tees carefully it plays a bit short, but really enjoyed the layout, there was just the usual summer sloggers out there gavin a blast. Get a deal online and go play this one.!

2.5 HI, played with an 18 and 20 handicapper, respectively; all three of us had a great time..! Amenities are sub-standard, but the course layout and course conditions were really good… It’s a fun track! Definitely be back!

Nice

Hadn't been here in quite a while. Pleasantly surprised by how well the course was kept. Lots of grass on the fairways, greens ran true. A most enjoyable day. We'll definitely be back.

Mid-week round

Course in good shape. Heavy rains left casual water on some holes. Sand traps are going to take a lot of work.

Challenge

A bit of a drive but worth it to Dare the Bear. Challenge yourself. Bring plenty of balls. Repair your divots and take care of the place for others and for future play! This is a nice course let's keep it that way!

Must play

I highly recommend this course for value and challenging layout. The course is in great shape tee to green. We played early and got around in just under 4 hours. Everyone from the pro shop to the starter to the beverage girl was pleasant. This is one of my go-to top 3 courses now.

Great As Always

Course is always in great shape. It was full due to it being a weekend and great weather, so the pace was a little slow. 4 1/2 hours. But that’s expected. I will always come back to this one.
