About
Monroe's Bear Creek Golf Club is situated in the heart of Walton County. It's less than an hour from Atlanta, making it a conveniently close getaway from the hustle and bustle of the city. The course originally opened in 1990 but in 2008 it changed ownership and underwent a major renovation that elevated its conditions to rival that of any of the area's best golf courses. The bunkers were rebuilt and re-sanded and the fairways were re-conditioned. Bear Creek G.C. has always been known for its excellent greens, which have a reputation for being some of the state's finest putting surfaces. The layout measures 6,585 yards from the back tees, which may seem short but there are some ups and downs throughout that will make it feel much longer.

Good Course and fair price
Enjoyed playing this course and find the improvements are starting to show. Greens are in good shape. Tee boxes need more attention but are being worked on. Clubhouse is improved with snack bar and a nice assortment of golfing supplies available.
Overall a good round
Overall the course is in good shape. The greens as always very good. Tee boxes as always need allot of help.
Grumpy
I only gave the staff because the last two times my friends and I played out there he was a pain not friendly at all he gets on everyone the guys that work there a gentleman and his little son could have been 7 or 8nat the most he complained about him riding his son and the course wasn't even crowded .ALL the other staff that works inside or very friendly except that older gentleman thats who i'm referring about but other than that its a great course.
Great course
Front nine is great
Gaz carts are old and should be replaced by electric ones
Back nine have a lot of short & tricky part 4
Great condition for the green and they are challenging
Too bad that fairways were soaked by past days rain
Really! Believe what the others say. Don’t waste your money!
Tee time was for 3:28 for 2 players. Arrived and paid and wasn’t told they didn’t have carts available. While waiting 3 young mean arrive in Crocs and sweatpants. When their cart arrives, they drive home with the cart to get their golf bags! At this point we are 15 minutes past tee time! Many other we’re waiting as well. No refunds are issued, rain checks only! Guess they have my money because I don’t care to come back to such a poorly ran course! Such a beautiful day to waste our time!
Great Greens
Greens in excellent condition; they were putting drainage and fresh sand in the bunkers….course is really shaping up and was a great value. I would recommend playing.
Don't waste your time or money
the course is in terrible shape. No grass on the tee boxes, fairways look like an off road park, all bunkers are holding water with mud instead of sand. Greens are laughable. staff is rude
Georgia golf getaway
My wife and I have been touring S Carolina, Georgia and Florida for the past month and have played a lot of golf in our travels. Ear Creek was recommended to us by a couple we played with the previous day.
The course and greens were great even if in dormant state. Our only hiccup was the lack of direction signs. Some of the cart paths and hole layouts we're a.bit confusing. But that is our only issue. You can't beat the course and price.
Semi retired 3
It’s like our home course it’s fantastic there Jeff is one of the most accommodating person that we have met at the front desk at any course that we play on once it get some sand in those bunkers you can’t go wrong playing there. Sometimes we have a little problem with the older guy there. But overall it’s outstanding they have done a great job there. Also it’s the best course we have played on in the winter months
Some player are drunk and can not control his body
