Bear Creek Valley
Great little golf course. Kind of hidden, but a good course to play. Pace of play is usually good, except Day I play 9 July 2019. Had some cronies out playing and it was slow. Still played 18 in just over 4 hours. I will play this course every time I’m in the Ozarks!
Great place to play
The course was in great shape and very challenging. The layout makes it impossible to walk it- but the hills and design are a treat! The water hazard on #1 hole is creative and beautiful. The back nine provides large hills and slopes and Beautiful scenery.
The lady behind the counter at the pro shop is a very nice and professional person.
It was a great time playing here and we will return every time we visit the lake!
Great Sunday afternoon
The Best kept course at LOK that I have played so far. Cart paths in great shape, greens are fast, fairways mowed close.
One of my favorite Lake of the Ozarks courses and best value.
The course is always is good conditions. Very interesting layout with different holes. Course is not tight; but,, you must keep control of your golf ball because it is not wide open on most holes. It is just an exceptional value!
Great Course grouchy lady in pro shop
Had a great time playing the course and it was in great shape! Get to play this course once or twice a year and this time it was in the best shape I have seen it. The day started off a little rough with the snarky gal in the pro shop.
Good round of Golf
Excellent Golf Course, some difficult holes and some short Par 4 holes
Beautiful course
Very nice course with challenging layout and perfect greens. Extremely fair.
First Time Bear Creek
First time playing Bear Creek, very friendly staff at the club house. Sent me out :25 early. Played the first 4 holes on pace but then ran into a very slow Fivesome. (A Fivesome, really?) a single was also ahead of me. He waited on the fairway and I at the tee box for this Fivesome which took :12 on the green. He reported it but saw no Marshall to come and break them up or hurry their pace of play.
Course was a little wet in sports as the area has had a lot of rain in the past week. Greens were tough with very subtleties as I had numerous 3 putts but that could be my putting stroke just stunk that day. Most greens had some bald and under repair spots and most were not marked so “rub of the green” played a problem on some.
Fun course to play but with the layout and possible difficulties I could see 5 hour rounds durning a busier day.
A+ Fairways, A+ Greens
Really nice course, 5 tee boxes, The greens are in great shape, plenty of elevation with tee boxes and greens. The fairways are very wide open as well. Not penalized too bad if you miss a fairway. Pat 5 hole 17 is one of the best par 5’s in public golf
Gorgeous views
Definitely a must play ! Course was in great shape. The greens were verticut yesterday and had fresh sand top dressing and I hate that but the ball still rolled well. Just a beautiful course with amazing views !!! No houses on any hole and fairway grass was perfect !
Beautiful course
Played here couple times before. Course was in good shape and well maintained. Restrooms were very clean out on the course. Get a styrofoam cup of ice/water just inside the golf cart garage and then can refill throughout the course.
Amazing Course
We loved this course. Going up and down the hills...it was so much fun!
Great Value
Challenging course, fun to play...Good value and always in great shape
Beautiful Day On The Course
A nice course with lots of variety and different elevations.
Always a pleasure to play.
beautiful day
Course is in beautiful shape. Greens were very good. Fairways were very nice. The views are stunning on some of the holes. This place is fun to play.
Great except for the weather
If it hadn’t been cart path because of all the recent rain I’d give it 5 stars across the board. Still one of my favorite courses.
Great Deal
Nice course with great GolfNow bargain rounds. Friendly staff. Great lady at snack shack hole 9 & 10. Owner keeps course good shape. Had green maintenance before this particular round but still played well. Needs bunker work but weather has been difficult until now this year in Missouri.
Course in good shape
Greens had been sanded but were still ok. Good layout and TeeOff locations are fair for each level
