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.

One of My Favorite Courses

Though it has been wet, cold and windy, it is always a pleasure to play Bear Creek! The staff and owners are friendly and fantastic people! The course is always fun and we always hate to finish a round! If you haven't played here...you need to give it try!

Need to upgrade

The course has really gone downhill. We were also chased by the lawn care staff for three holes.

Good for the money just needs some work

The signs are a major problem. Need directions to next tee boxes can really be hard to navigate where the next tee boxes are if your not familiar with the courses layout. Really get turned around quickly on which way to go. Fairways have a lot of bad spots to hit from such as rocks and dirt. But all kidding aside not a really bad course for the money. Just need to keep a little more up around the cart paths and fairways. Could really be a nice course with some work

Great greens and value for the money

My friend and I played this course for the first time on 11/24/2020. It was a last minute decision and they appeared to have plenty of times available. For the money, this course is fantastic. The greens are wonderful, fast and true. The layout is a bit tricky, with a few blind shots, and for the first time we didn't have anything to go off for landing areas. However, for the money, it is a great deal. They offer an all you can play $35 flat rate, which in the summer I would take full advantage of it. Pace of play was solid, bunkers weren't too bad either. Also, most tee boxes were in pretty good shape. Overall, if you want a course with really good greens, I would say give it a shot.

Need to use every club

This is one of my favorite courses since you have to use every club in your bag. The greens were a little fast, which required precise putting.
