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.

Meh

Wouldn’t play here again. Greens were good but the rest of the course was dead. You pay a lot for essentially a par 3 course.

No Grass

If your looking for grass, this is not where you want to golf. Miss a green and your hitting off dirt.

A pretty good executive 18.

My wife and I played this course. A fun 18 on a pretty good course. Conditions tee to green were decent and the greens in good shape. Played 18 with minimal delay so the time passed quickly. All the courses in the are extremely busy so we’re lucky to find a tee time on a Saturday.

A good place for snowbirds to shake off the rust from winter snow.

The pro shop has a couple of items but primarily is a cash register.

We would play here again.

Fun course

Paired with a couple our age and enjoyed round. If you don't hit the green, most of your lies will be on hard tight lies. Think the flag had not been moved from previous day as there was an obvious "volcano" right around the hole. Also as first timers we felt there could have been signage directing golfers to the location of the next tee box!

They painted the fairways.to make them look green. It was sparse areas of grass, the rest was like straw.

Golf Surprise

This was my first time playing an "executive" golf course. It was great fun, but the price was too high and the fairways were rough. The greens were were very nice and challenging.
