Take with a Grain of Salt
Winter golf so a little more slack given but no bev cart and the course doesn't loop to the clubhouse. Great layout with tons of potential and great views while you wait 3-5 minutes every shot just to putt on greens that have been peppered with divots and scuffs. Tried going back in the clubhouse restroom after the round only to see the pro lock up the whole building and grab his sticks and hop on a cart... with plenty of daylight left. Might be back in spring to check for improvements

Challenging course
Always enjoyed playing in Bears Best from the bag dropped to the front desk. Ian was very accommodating with our request. It was a lot of fun to experience playing a compilation of 18 holes that Jack Nicklaus designed. If you have not played this course I encourage you to play. The customer service is top notch.
Thank you for your review. We will pass along your positive experience to our team at Bear's Best Atlanta. We look forward to seeing you again soon.

In the toilet
Bear's Best has been a favorite because of the unique holes and design.
It was a mess last September and we don't plan to return until we know someone who has played it recently. Bunkers were washed out, tee boxes in bad shape, bald areas everywhere! To pay a premium for a course in such bad shape helped convince us to drop Bear's Best from our list.
Possibly the best course in Gwinnett
Possibly the best course in Gwinnett, the staff was amazing, the course was in excellent condition and it was as very challenging for an avid golfer. This course has everything one could expect from a public course especially for the price.
We love hearing about our golfers' experiences. Please tell us more about what you enjoyed during your round. Thanks for choosing Bear's Best Atlanta!
Sadness
First time I’d been in a few years. Whoever currently owns it seems like they trying to run it in the ground. Friendly staff, but that’s ab it. A shame really, used to be great
