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.

Bear Creek Championship course
After 4:45 minutes , the speed of the course was so slow and Marshall did not keep 4-somes moving along . I was not able to complete 18 holes because Marshall’s aloud players to search for too long for lost golf balls or were permitted to hit multiple balls on each hole. The speed of the game needs to be kept.
Bear Creek
This course is a busy, over booked, with 2.5 hour for 9 holes, or 5 hour, 18 hole rounds, type of course. Course loc. in the middle of large suburb, and is well run. Driving range, putting greens, and chipping greens, are nice, if you can get on them, as it appears a lot of the locals use them regularly, for practice only. Rates are high, not for quality, but because of high demand, due to few courses in area. Wont be back.
Bear creek “PUBLIC COURSE”
It’s over 100 dollars to play this course on a decent day , ITS NOT EVEN WORTH 40 $ there’s absolutely nothing too this course, play it once and you’ll know to never waste your money there again
Fun course but pace of play was slow
Bear Creek is in great condition and is a fun layout. Great mix of holes and the greens were very good.
At 5 hours plus, pace of play wasn't the best but it was a nice day and we enjoyed it.
Worth a play but not at the premium prices they calling for now in high season
Fairways and greens in great shape. Pace of play, even late afternoons is an issue I’ve hit not more often than not. Waited on every single shot today. 3 groups on every single hole from #2 to #8. The Ranger came out and said all was fine in front of us, even saying he did not believe me there was 3 groups on the holes and 4 on the par 5 3rd (I should have taken a picture); after he left it then took us 30+ min to play the par 3 from putting out on hole before to teeing off on the next hole after. I guess this is the price we pay for peak season in the valley of the sun.
Nice Track
Had a nice round of golf here, was very busy 4 group wait when I arrived, probably because it was Super Bowl weekend as well. But the course played nice greens were quick and after the round the girls in the bar were fantastic with our service.
The Bear!
Arrived 1.5 hour early to warm up and hit balls. Staff were super nice and directed me to where I need to go. It was very busy so my 11:50 tee time turned into 12:50 but it was WMPO weekend and Super Bowl. I just hit more balls and worked on my putting which I needed anyways. Ended up the group ahead of us bailout after nine do we breezed through the back nine. The staff in the Bar were awesome after our round and took good care of us!! Will play there again for sure.
Nice Course
