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.

I thought I made a tee time for the other course so I wasn’t sure I would like this shorter executive course, but it was one of the better executive courses I’ve played I highly recommend this course if you challenging but not a hard course to play

Below Average Condition In-Season

Forst time playing this course. The layout is good and challenging, though only one sand trap and one water feature... great for a beginner golfer. With February being peak season, i expected the tees and greens to be in great condition, but really only the greens were in good shape. The rough was virtually non-existent and there was excess irrigation water all over making for a muddy mess. No cart paths either. I was expecting better for a $70 executive course fee. At least our playing partners were fun.

The Cub course needs upgrades

Greens were good, the other parts of the cub/excutive course is poor at best.

Very poor pace of play

The course was recommended to me as local short round. We live in Cali and we were in town for a few days. Very surprised of the pace of play. My wife and I walk off the course after 9 holes.

Needs work

Some greens to tees had cart paths - some did not. . There were some direction to the next tee but not all. As I said - it needs work.

Very Accomodating

Decent course that was a bit expensive due to being near the start of the Waste Management tournament.

Neighborhood Course

I would like to see the course clean up the grounds by removing falling branches. Pick up the trash, I think by upgrading a couple things you would really improve the looks of the course….. add benches around tee boxes and maybe add shrubs around tee box to border them add trash cans to keep golfers from throwing trash on ground.
