Course Highlights
Black Bear's hilly, non-traditional Florida layout consistently earns high marks for its challenging elevation changes and well-regarded course design. Friendly staff, smooth pace of play, and strong overall value make this a rewarding round worth revisiting.

Wow!! 🤯

It’s been a while since I had been there, but I gotta tell you it was one of the best days I’ve had at the golf course in a long time!

It’s kinda like one of those feelings when you’ve been gone for a while and you go back home. Everybody’s glad to see you. They treat you right and make you feel right back at home!

From the moment I walked into the moment I left I had an absolutely fantastic time. The golf course was in great shape. The range was impeccable. I had such a good time. I even stayed there for food! Which by the way was delicious.

Now there’s a place around here that gets it about service, everybody a black bear went out of the way to make me and my guest feel more than welcome!

So much so that we’re gonna go back there again and again and again!

We had a great time and I just wanna extend my thanks to everybody who works there because it’s been a while since I’ve had a day like that on the golf course!

And one more thing, we bought some merchandise which was reasonably priced and very fashionable. I might add!

Worst owner of a golf course!!

Been playing here for years…. Owner is some Spanish, maybe Asian dude who is the most disrespectful human I’ve ever came across… this guy runs a golf course?? Those poor employees! Absolute duesch bag, rude, disrespectful, doesnt know how to talk to paying customers or how to approach any type of situation on a golf course the right way. Talks down to you, enjoys being mean to paying customers lol. If you care about customer service as much as course conditions the course is in much better shape then the staff!

Shout out to Jordan in the cart barn! Great kid! Nicest guy there

Owners disrespectful and out of line

Don’t hit it over a fence or the Spanish/somoan duesch bag who runs the course will come out and talk down to you like youre a child who did bad. Absolutely the worst experience I’ve ever had after playin there for years… I’ll save myself $50, won’t be back. Guy who runs it needs to practice how to speak to ppl

Good course. Good value.

Enjoyed the round. Greens were a bit slow but kind of expected in such hot weather. A better place to play than two other courses within just a few miles.

Great Golf Course!

Black Bear is a gem! The course was pristine, boasting gorgeous green grass, an engaging layout, and an unbeatable price point. If you haven't already, add Black Bear to your must-play list - you won't regret it!
