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.

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.

Management stinks

So we paid $70 for 2:20 tee time. 3.5 hrs , for 10 hokes.

I tried calling for adjustment. And was not called back.

I called a couple times and was given the run around.

I was told to come down and speak to manager, but Josh even lied to

me., the manager was not even there!!!

What a poorly run course. Do not spend your money here.

Winter Golf

Layout isn’t overly challenging, course is easy to navigate. Fairways and greens were in good shape. Waste areas are very rough shape. Course gets a lot of play so you’ll get stalled for short periods

Overpriced

Unremarkable course with way too high a price. I expected more for the money. People were friendly, but the course is featureless and quite forgettable. Just some strips of green grass in a flat desert. I paid $110 for this “hot deal”. What a joke!

Great course

45 minute frost delay and with a scheduled tee time at 140 we weren’t sure if we would get done before dark. The staff moved golfers to the front nine again to speed things up and we were able to finish. Challenging and beautiful course.
