Bears Best
Got a really good price on golf now for a 1 pm tee time, unfortunately the 2 groups in front were slow backed up all day starting with the 4th hole . It was an exceptionally hot day but still finished in 4 hours
Course in really good condition except some very wet spots that were beat up by carts. Only complaint was rock hard bunkers with lots of rocks. It also looked like they filled in a few bunkers which to me took away from the hole since this course represents a hole at Jack's courses across the country. Course had the absolute best views of all the courses played so far and some extraordinary homes on one side of the course. Will be back staff great and a very pleasant experience even though I had trouble keeping it in the fairway, need to be straight when playing from forward tee.
Excellent
Love playing the course, surely would play it again
We are so happy you enjoyed your round! We look forward to seeing you again soon at Bear's Best Las Vegas.
We're glad you enjoyed your 5-star experience with us. Please comment or reach out to our team in the golf shop to let us know more about your round at Bear's Best Las Vegas!
Bear’s Best is the Best
Fabulous course, super fun and scored my first ever eagle on hole 11!
Wow! We are so happy you enjoyed your round - and congrats! We look forward to seeing you again soon at Bear's Best Las Vegas.
I recommend it
Fairways and greens are in great shape, rough is manageable. Only downside is the bunkers if you find yourself in them. Extremely hard pan under the top coat of sand. Due to the wind and heat out here, it’s understandable that the bunkers are thin. The best bunker on the course is the 18th at the edge of green next to the water, that’s where the sand is. The cost of the course is reasonable, but the getting a snack at the turn is not. Was told 3 minutes wait for a brat, ended up being 20 and the brat was served on a heavy and dry hoagie roll, made for paninis lol! Out of buns so they improvised. The range is one of my favorites out here. Range balls are premium condition, always hitting on good grass and No Mats! Pace of play was better than most.
Thank you for your review. We will pass along your positive experience and feedback to our team at Bear's Best Las Vegas. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Vegas golf
Beautiful course on a beautiful day. This course is surrounded by multi-million-dollar homes and great views of the mountains and the strip.. It is a great layout with several challenging holes. Some bunkers were full of rocks, and some had sand. The greens were aerated and covered with sand which would have been nice to know when we booked the tee time. The staff was outstanding. I would probably play it again, but I would ask about the conditions of the greens before I booked it.
Thank you so much for leaving us with your feedback. We value our customer experience, so your review is important to us. We will make note and we hope to see you back at Bear's Best Las Vegas!
You’re Kidding Me…
Staff was absolutely electric. Every single one of them. Seriously amazing. Course is in PERFECT condition too. Butter greens so make sure that flat stick is on point. Played 36 and paired with some members and they were equally biblical. Get me a house boat so I can put it in the right side water hazard on 18 and I’ll toss all the players glizzy’s before they head home.
The place rules.
Thank you for your kind words! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing Bear's Best Las Vegas.
We love hearing about our golfers' experiences. Please tell us more about what you enjoyed during your round. Thanks for choosing Bear's Best Las Vegas!
Awesome course
Amazing course on a hot Vegas summer day. It was 110 degrees , but still wasn't terrible. The course conditions are amazing for the summer time and each hole is a unique challenge. Tee boxes, fairways, and all but a few greens are immaculate. Some bunkers have a unique black sand which was interesting to hit out of. The off fairways desert was challenging to hit out of, so fairways are your friend. Other than the heat, the only issue I had was staff friendliness. I'm from out of town and needed to rent clubs. On their website it says $70. When I was charged, it was $90! When I showed the staff that, he said they've raised their prices, but ultimately after my complaining that that's not what it says on. Their website, he relented , but then like a child, took away the 6 balls they were gonna give me with the rentals. Extremely petty considering it was their mistake. Everything else was too notch! You won't be disappointed with playing golf at Bears Best!
Thank you for sharing your 5-star experience during your round. We apologize for the confusion on our rental price and for the negative experience you had with a member of our staff. We are updating prices on our website but must have missed that one. We hope that you'll give us another try in the future!

Designed for a great experience no matter your handicap
This was my first time playing desert golf and what a great experience. Great selection of merchandise in the pro shop. A fantastic staff from check in, to the rangers who offered helpful advice about the course. Special thanks to Liz for being so pleasant while serving us a hot dog and ice cold beer. We were paired with two lady members and had a great time. The course is designed to be a great experience whether you are a high or low handicapper. The scenic views are breath taking and playing in the mid 90's was comfortable. Never worked up a sweat. From a fellow Buckeye, Thanks Jack.

Cost to much
As a NV resident Bears Best has way over priced the course. Want more than $300 in prime months, and close to $200 in off months is asking to much. There are so many other courses of this quality in Las Vegas that you can play for a lot less. Very sad to see them become so greedy.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. We are going to pass on your feedback to the team. Thanks for visiting Bear's Best Las Vegas, and we hope to see you again in the future.
