The Bear Creek Golf Complex offers two golf courses, one championship length course and one executive length course, the Cub Course. This sporty course is ideal for beginners and families. Like its sister course, the Bear Course, there are rolling fairways and well-manicured greens that have unique swales and collection areas. The design features five par 4s and the rest are par 3s, all of which vary in length. A round of golf on the Cub Course can be completed in less than three hours. The Bear Creek Golf Complex also boasts several practice facilities including a lighted driving range, two putting greens, and a short game area with a bunker.

fun

Fun to get some swings in on this course instead of hitting balls on flat ground at the range. The fairways and tee boxes are pretty well kept. the greens are the best part

Got Game

This a great course to work on your short game. The par 4’s were long and not too easy. The par threes were challenging with narrow fairways and challenging greens. I’d recommend this course to anyone who needs to work on their approach and short game.

Love this course

Bear Creek’s Cub Course: perfect for when you want to golf without the pressure of impressing anyone — including yourself. Great for sharpening your short game, or just your excuse game. Bonus: you’ll only lose half as many balls and twice as much dignity. 10/10, would duff again. 🐻⛳

The Executive course was in good shape, green fast and pin placement challenging. Well worth working on short game.
