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.

Good walkable course.

We wanted a little exercise so we walked the Cub. It was just long enough to be interesting, and short enough to walk easily.

course is good value for the money

Course is fun to play. The only suggestion I would make would be to add a bench to sit down every 2 or 3 holes and more ball washers.

This is a great course for any skill level.

The cub is much harder than it looks. That is a good thing. Always in great condition. Speed of play is excellent.

For the money, it really is hard to beat.

Bear Creek cub course

The course did not have a cart path entirely throughout. Hole locations were a bit confusing at times.
