Bear's Best Atlanta

a fantastic course, but THE WORST TIME MANAGEMENT that I have experienced in my 1000's of rounds played. My foursome of strangers quit after 14 holes after playing over 5 hours, and estimating that it might be a total of a 7 hour round. And this was after waiting for 1 1/2 hours past our tee time. We also saw 2 groups immediately ahead of us quit.

The layout was spectacular. For women of my age and ability the layout was very fair. The fringes and greens need work. It could have been a function of the excessive rain we've had this summer and not necessarily the fault of the greens staff. I'm looking forward to going back when the rain stops.

The only real complaint I have is that I expect for a pristine course to have greens in great shape, which was not the case. The fairways however were immaculate. Highly recommended I just hope they can get the greens back in better shape without so much damage from people not repairing ball marks,etc.

A perfect day, sunny, blue skies and a very well manicured course! Enjoyed it.

Great course, Best short game facility (not private) in the Atlanta area! Great staff... I love the layout and it's always in great shape. In the Atlanta area this, i believe, is the best thing going as far as semi private courses go.

Rain! Rain! Rain! And more Rain! This course was soaked, the bent greens were toast! Wet, mucky, divots everywhere, 50% un-repaired, bunkers near wash out, I could go on but I won't. I am sure this is a real nice course under normal conditions. I am sure at some point I saw Noah and the Ark float by!!! Enjoyed the 7 holes we played but just couldn't judge anything, no roll out, rough high due to rain, greens so slow and wet. Sometime in the far future I will go back and give it another go just to get the full affect.

The course itself was in good condtion. The greens were extremely slow and beat up. I expect after paying that much to play that the greens woudl have been in much better shape and that they would have been much faster.

At a prime time list rate of $115, this course has fallen off tremendously. I have played it several times over the years and its by far in the worst shape seen. Greens are beaten badly, fairways as well with lots of crabgrass in spots and overall maintenance has declined. Can't tell if its due to over play, lack of maintenance, weather related, fore caddies not there to repair shot damage or all the above. I just know there are many courses for a fraction of the cost in much better shape.

Course has well maintained fairways. Greens were bumpy but we managed well.

The greens and sand traps were in unacceptable shape. I have played this course ten times over the last several years, but it is now at the bottom of my list given the poor current maintenance. As always, the layout is great and the staff friendly, but there is work that needs to be done to restore this course.

This is a must play course and well worth the price and the travel time. I was disappointed in the condition of the greens as it appears the public does not take the time to repair their ball marks. Very sad to see this as this is the third time I have played this course and the greens have been abused by the public. However I will return and play whenever I can as this is the BEST public course around.

Nice to say I have played it. Course was in Good shape but the green rolled at about an 8 and where pretty beat up. This is probably do to playing a tourist course late in the summer. I was not disappointed but did expect a little better greens.

Great course with fast greens. Very difficult and long. Par 3's are great.

I had a great time at Bears Best Atlanta during a recent trip. It was cool to check out each hole to see where the original hole was. Loved the 6 hole (original 12 hole at Muirfield villege). I don't think it's a course I would visit often as it is a little costly, but for a one time visit, well worth it. Staff was very friendly took care of you.

I was able to get a Hot Deal for a Friday evening. Teed off at 5:00pm for $35 and played in about 3:15. I thought the greens would be better maintained/faster than they were, but it wasn't the course staff's fault... there were a lot of pitch marks that weren't properly repaired by players. Overall, a great way to spend an evening on a premier course in the area.

Course was in great shape. Challenging holes and visually appealing. Nice staff. This was my first time at the course and it would be nice to have the hole layout made available on the scorecard. Found some hazards that weren't visible from the tee. Otherwise, great course and I plan to play it again soon.

1st time playing this course! Will diffently play here Again.

Great course with some great risk/reward options. Good course for all levels

This course has everything. Great practice facility. Friendly staff. The course is in impeccable condition. I had a wonderful day and b/c of Golf Now I was able to enjoy this amazing course at a discount!!!

the course was in great shape but a little more expensive than i think warranted.
