A little dark, but black bear in a dark tree, hole # 6...appropriate for Black Bear Golf Club! Photo submitted by relivgolfers on 09/29/2013
It always great to Dare The Bear!
Always a wonderful experience. Staff is very friendly. Challenging course in great condition.
Green fees are a great value.
Fun track with gaping flaws
I play this course 5 or 6 times a year and really enjoy it.
So during my past visit I decided to look at it as if I was a first-timer! As I walked from the parking lot I noticed that the landscaping has been largely ignored, and the American flag was shredded on the end.
As for the course, the fairways and greens were quite well maintained, but for some reason the bunkers are totally ignored. Most bunkers are ringed with foot-high weeds, with many bunkers having high weeds growing within the bunker itself.
NO course should have foot-high weeds anywhere! If I wanted that I'd visit Eagle Dunes!
Get out the weed-eater, clean up the bunkers AND the parking area landscaping and you'll be good to go.
I'll be back in November with hopes of those improvements!
Management needs to ban this
The 4some in front of us were recording their round like good/good wannabes. Not simply using phones but set up tripods and cameras to record every shot everyone made. They never offered to let us play through and with no Ranger on the course we finally had to skip a hole to get around them. This ruined what would have been a great round on a great course. We won't be back until I hear that this practice has been banned.
Holy cow
Hardest course I’ve played. I wasn’t hitting good, but still. Craters everywhere
Coming along nicely...
tee boxes, fairways and greens in good shape. Worth the trip out to play.
Nice driving range with shot computers too.
Great shape and a quick round
Course is fine....played in 3 1/2 hours. Fairways, tee boxes and greens all in good shape.
Fun, fair course
Course was in great shape, tough but fair, hard to lose a ball out there. Would recommend
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!
I play heavy to irons over woods. This course plays PERFECTLY to my style of golf. The fairways run like carpet. Very friendly staff. 10/10 will be back soon!
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
