Amara Golf & Social Club

The course was in great condition. The staff was very friendly and informative as well. We would definitely play here again..

After hearing all the fabulous reviews about this course from previous trips, I was slightly disappointed after playing a round. The greens were bumpy, especially on the back nine. Average speed when compared to other courses in the area. Really disappointed to warm up on matts, especially in the chipping area when the grass looks like it’s ready for play. I can respect if the course is dry or winter conditions don’t allow for continuous driving range use but when the grass is green, healthy and ready for play, hard to justify to warm up on matts. Staff was friendly, helpful. Not sure I would play there again when there are other courses offering a far better Jack Nicklaus experience, especially for the price.

It's a good course but they should create a hybrid scorecard between 6000 yards and 6600 as it will players more options. Also think the rough should be overseed so it looks nicer.

Great course and fun.

Greens were little rough and bumpy.

Interesting set of holes.

Got behind a couple of groups that were together and seemed to connect back up at tees and greens slowing play for everyone. Eventually walked off on -6 as it passed back by the clubhouse because it was taking too long for the round.

Beautiful course & views all the way back to the strip- awesome experience- JP

Course in good condition. Pace was much slower than expected and marshals said try were speeding things up but it didn’t happen. Fortunately 16 ends back at the clubhouse so it was easy to walk off at which point there were 8 people coming off the 18th.

Great pace of play and friendly staff.

Conditions were great, staff was fantastic. Fun course.

Avoid this course! No par mates come here that is a sign this course is not a main course selection in the Vegas area. I could not visualize where the fairways are on the course and it’s because most of it is rock bunkers and lousy sand traps. If my plane crashed in the middle of the desert, and I had my golf clubs that is what Bears Best is like playing. Just 18 flag sticks scattered among desert terrain and rocks. To top it off the ranger harassed us all round for slow play and yet we watched a group in front of us playing all day. Never coming back here again!

Great course/layout. Worth playing at least once. Price was a little on the steep side for what you get. If you’re a “resident,” you can play for the right price. If not, be looking to pay about 30 - 50% more.

Overall, great course. It’s nice to play a course that a legend put together of some of his favorite holes.

Course in great condition even with a lot of the turf in dormancy. Still plenty of green grass in fairways. Spectacular views of mountains and strip, along with unusual architecture of ritzy surrounding homes.
