Rating Snapshot
About
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.

Nice short course
We always try to play this course a couple of times when we're in Arizona for the winter. The staff is very friendly and the course is always in good condition. Most holes are very short, but you do get to use driver a few times.
Fun Course
The course was in excellent condition. The greens were fast. It's a good course to see how far you hit your clubs. Had a fun day.
Nice outing
Plays the Cub 18, not knowing it was a short course and not informed of the long course. Still ok as the course was in nice shape, nice day and paired up with a great couple
Great short course.
This course is just what you would expect from a well maintained executive course. For that purpose, it fills the bill well.
We enjoy this course as a hassle-free round of golf that doesn't take all day.
Apparently there are 2 18 hole courses here
I did not realize there were 2 eighteen hole courses at this place
I would have never booked this one as I like full size 18 hole courses
I will pay more attention in the future
Good Value
We were once again met by friendly staff who loaded our clubs and filled our cooler with ice. The starter was very friendly and we got out a little early. The course is in really good condition and the greens are fast. Some of the ball washers could do with a little more water. Same great service when we finished. Clubs were washed and carried to the bag drop area. As seniors we find the length of this course to be just right. Very good value for the green fees charged.
Nice little executive course
We played the Cub course as our first round of the vacation. It was a great way to warm up after not playing since October (we're from MN). Staff was great, practice facilities were great, beverage cart made it to us 3 times even though she had to cover both courses by herself. I will play here again!
Fun executive course
Course layout good. I like the no cart path feel. The course could use a few more trees, however.
Overall, a good experience and will play there again
Great staff and good course- Marshall needed!!
This is a fun course when groups move along at the appropriate pace. Today was a mess on the cub when I played. A slow foursome in front created all kinds of chaos. My group skipped a hole to get in front of them and I noticed that at least three other groups did the same thing. Time management on the course is part of the game. When individuals do not respect that they diminish the enjoyment for others who don't have 4 hours to play a two hour course like the cub. I would like to see the Cub show some leadership and marshall playing time.

Executive Course. Good to practice for short game.
Nice, short course
I have played at Bear Creek before but this was my first time playing their "Cub" course. This is an executive style course. I did not have time for a full round and this worked out great. 2.5 hrs. Conditions were good. Pace of play was great. Staff friendly as always.
A 4 yr hiatus from golfing finally over
The Cub was a great executive type course. Hadn't played golf for 4 years, but had my clubs along on a holiday to the Mesa area. I didn't want to start with a difficult course so this course was recommended to me. Couldn't be happier that I played here. It was great to get the irons and hybrids going again and not get punished for missed hits. Also had some good holes for driver use. Course was in great shape and amenities were very adequate. Staff were friendly and that means a lot to me.. I will be back next year and spend a lot more time on both of their courses. Thanks to this course for renewing my interest in golfing and also encouraging my wife to get back to playing again next year
One of our favorites
Was rather discouraging, didn't seem to be a marshall and we had a very slow foursome in front of us who were taking their time and made no attempt to allow us to play thru. Otherwise it was a good day.
Par 59, tough greens
Tees off at 8.18am, finished by 10.10am
Had 2 some in front, who only played 9 holes. So no delays, 3dome behind kept up till 9th.
Greens were good
Relax,relax, relax
Great short course. Loved the fact there were a fair share of par 4's. I hadn't golfed for 4 years so this was ideal for getting back into the game. The whole course was player friendly and was in good shape with very decent greens and fairways that always gave good lies. Great course for the ladies. Will take my wife there next time I go. She too hasn"t golfed for 4 years. Very reasonable pricing.
Good course for the $$. Staff are friendly but be clear this is a relaxed environment so if you are in a hurry don’t expect the staff to hurry for you, but if you are relaxed and a fair golfer you will enjoy this course. No trees to stop your balls but wide fairways and good greens.
Today the green and fringes were not that great. The ball bounced a lot due to the surface on the greens and near the pin placements. Difficult to find some of the holes due to signs being down and no cart paths.
