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.

Golfer Reviews
Great day for golf in Chandler
MY reservation on golf now was delayed to the next tee time and everyone had to wait for cards to get out on the course. I played the Bear Championship for the first time after a couple rounds on the Cup course while the over seeding grew in.
Once we got off, the day was fine, play was a little slow, but the course was definitely full of all types of abilities.
Not enough golf carts
Course is fun, conditions are good. We had to wait in line with a bunch of unhappy people waiting for golf carts. You'd think they'd plan for enough golf carts to cover both courses. Our tee time got pushed right because of this and it got dark before we finished. Too bad because it is a really fun course. Staff was friendly and did the best they could. Just wish they had enough golf carts for these worst case scenarios.
Overseading
Still on cart path only which certainly slows things down. Took a full 4 1/2 hours to complete the 18. Not super slow, but we waited at each tee box. Greens are in great shape for this time of the year.
some confusion
I booked our 4 some on line. I paid a deposit and the balance was due at course. I was told that deposit was not going to be charged by the booking site. Wrong. We did pay the balance at the course. So now I have to ask my other three players for more money? I consider it a leaning experience/ The counter person was not informed of how it works.
Great course
Staff was great, course was awesome - exactly what we hoped for.
Overseading
Still cart path but have to say the course for this time of the year is in a lot better shape than others. Greens are filled in. Little slow and inconsistent, but considering it's still cart path only, they're in pretty good shape.
Good time
Course was in good shape…it was cart path only but play flowed well…we were paired with a very nice couple…it was a fun Tiime
Very slow play made worse by post-overseeding "cart path only".
The real problem was the starter that allowed a 2-some without a tee-time to squeeze in front of us. One of the 2-some played in flip flops and the other may have never played golf before. With a 12:16 tee time we made the turn at 2:55. So, we asked for a refund and did not play the back 9. This a very poorly managed golf course with a bad starter and no ranger to be seen.
October Golf
Course was in transition. Fairways were brown and greens were in ok shape. Greens were hard. No drinking water on the course
Bear Creek Championship course
The course was in excellent shape and the fairways were fantastic. Hopefully the overseed will be good because of the course conditions now.
Overcast and rain
Cool day, excellent course conditions. Even wet putting was good and true. A pleasure to play today
