Bear Creek Golf Complex - Bear Course
About
The Bear Course is one of two courses at the Bear Creek Golf Complex; it is a championship-length course while the other, the Cub Course, is an executive length course. The Bear Course is an inland, links-style course with rolling fairways and well-manicured greens. Strategically placed bunkers situated throughout the course add some challenge to the course. A round of golf on this course can be played in less than four hours. The Bear Creek Golf Complex, in addition to the two courses, also offers a full grass driving range, two putting greens, and a short game area with a bunker.

Great Round
Course is in great shape, greens fast and in good shape. Friendly staff and very helpful.
Bear Creek review
The course was in good shape. The greens o. tge frint 9 were bladed which didn't affect play. Overall the course was in goid shape. The only issue I had was with the Marshall. For some reason he believed our group wasn't following the coursd policy. He came up on our group yelling that he had warned us about not following the rules and he was taking our cart keys. When he realized he had the wrong group he just drove off. No aplogies just drove away. People pay good money to golf at this course and it shouldn't be ruined by a poor representative of the course. I've let management know but haven't heard back.
Same old Bare (Bear) Minimum (Creek)
Greens were decent. Rest of course is dirt or gravel. Hadn't played here in many years and thought I would give it a try. Sad I did. General disrepair everywhere. It's clear maintenance is not a priority here.
Nice course
Pace of play was great. Course was on great shape. Friendly staff. Will play here again.
Forgiving Course
This course is really forgiving, especially since there are no houses on any hole! Conditions were good all around and pace was good.
Check it out
Best condition I've seen this course in. Played in 4 hours. Good fairways, greens were in great shape but hard to read. Will play again soon.
Bear course - very nice !
The Bear course at Bear Creek Golf Center is very nice. The tee boxes, fairways and greens are in great condition !
Expensive with slow play
Golf courses in the Phoenix-area cater to wealthy, slow playing inconsiderate golfers.
Excellent value for the money
Course was in fine shape and we found it very enjoyable.
Good course
Nice layout, most of course was in good shape. Tee boxes a little rough. Pace of play was slow. Only saw cart once.
Amazing Course
Probably the most underrated course in AZ. Had a really good time here!
