Tee boxes and fairways were awesome. Some of the greens need help, but it has been HOT.

Bear Creek falling off?

Used to love playing this track every year, the last two seasons have turned us towards another course in the area. A lot of dead places, bare dirt, greens are like minefields, and SLOW, mats on the signature par 3 was a real deal breaker. Cash only half way house. Just did not have a lot going for it this year, sad to see.

Nice Experience

The course was in great condition. Greens looked and rolled great. The only thing I was surprised about for a resort course is that most every tee shot is blind. You would need a little course knowledge to know where to aim and miss when playing. Other then that beautiful course and would play again, especially knowing where to aim and miss off the tee.
