Always fun to play BB and this was no exception. Some of the tee boxes were chewed up pretty good and the greens were slightly inconsistent but neither was that much to dampen such a great course.

Main bad news is that the starter informed us this course is going private and will close for this conversion at the end of June. Get your Bears Best rounds in while you can!!

I love this course up in the mountains. Beautiful homes and views. The course is fun with 18 Famous holes developed by Jack N. They said it’s going private soon, so go before they shut it down to us regular golf folks. 😜

Play this fun and challenging course while you can. It’s been acquired and is going private after a huge renovation.

Mediocre track. Not worth $220. Some scenic holes but mostly dull.

Had a great time and snagged a hot deal for $169, group didn’t show up so I played with some members. Course was fun and challenging. I’m a 10 HDCP and Ranger suggested I play from the whites but they were a bit too short.

One of the Marshalls literally stole my ball once I teed off. Weird. Course was in trash shape.

Fun golf course. Not walkable. The greens were bumpy and were in need of rolling. Not Championship Quality.

Greens were little slow and bumpy but overall nice premium golf course

We thoroughly enjoyed playing. Staff was great and pace of play was as very steady w very little waiting on group in front.

Course was in great condition and the scenery was beautiful

liked the course layout as well

As a local, hands down my favorite course in Vegas. I say that even after launching my first shot into the water left. Always well manicured. Challenging, fast greens, makes you think about each shot. Have to play every club in the bag. Beautiful views throughout. Will most definitely play again. If you’re visiting, and only get to play one course this is it.

Enjoyed playing the course except the bunkers were difficult to non-playable. Course to close over summer and going private.

Bears Best is one of the nicest golf courses in the Las Vegas area. If you did not know, the 18 holes on this golf course are modeled based on some of the signature holes from various Jack Nicklaus golf courses across the country. It is quite challenging but fair, and the golf course is set within the affluent "The Ridges" community where every surrounding home and neighborhood is beautiful. It's just 15-20 mins off the Vegas strip in the Summerlin area and all the holes are properly maintained with lush fairways and well managed greens. The greens played a bit fast the day I played (probably around 11-12 on the stimpmeter) but fair nonetheless. I really wanted to play this course one last time before it is no longer available to the public. Rumor had it that this golf course will turn private this summer (June/July 2025), and after talking to the staff they had confirmed it. So play this golf course while you still can. You will not regret it.

Course was in great condition with fast smooth greens in the middle of winter! Pace of play was super - we finished in just under 4 hours.

I played this course about 17 years ago. I now have an injury that prohibits a lot of walking. I think the course should honor a standard handicap process and allow carts within 30 yard of greens
