Bear Creek Golf Club

From our "scheduled" tee time, it took us 6 hours and 10 minutes to finish our round. I booked on Wednesday amd tee times were 10 minutes apart. We showed up this morning to an absolute log jam at the first tee only to find out groups had been booked since at 5 minutes apart. Went to go buy some range balls, machine was empty. Pace of play was terrible, our cart backfired and stalled on us numerous times. The group in front of us had a flat tire on their cart and luckily realized it while waiting in the traffic jamb for the first tee. Most tee boxes were dirt. The sign that said 16th hole was actually the 15th hole.

The whole day was just ridiculous and I used to love playing here, actually thought about joining last year. Very glad I didn't.

Disappointed is an understatement. Highlight of the day was the sweet lady working at the counter. Otherwise a pure cluster.

I grew up in this neighborhood. I worked here in high school. I have continued time and time again to play at this course against my better judgment. I had a 950 tee time today. Myself and 2 playing partners teed off at 950. While the woman I was playing with was on the tee we were rode up on by a group of 5 who stated they were playing through as they were with the group ahead of us who was also a group of 3. We didn’t really have a choice to let them play through as the one guy named Sam was speaking to us his group was teeing up balls and playing. I contacted the clubhouse and asked for a marshal and was met with immediate pushback. I explained the situation and my answer was,” it’s best just to let those guys do whatever they want. “ it took over 20 minutes for my group to complete the hole and then my partner contacted the clubhouse to see if we could just move to the back nine which they obliged. When it was explained to the staff in the clubhouse that we couldn’t have a 6 hour round of golf due to slow play and the mismanagement of tee times as the reason for that we were told “ no refunds, no rain checks”. Sam and his fellow group of rude old men were obviously regulars at this course and to be so bold to act in the manner they did, it was obviously not the first time they’ve done it, and it’s not the first time the clubhouse has been told. Today is my 31st birthday and was my playing partners 61st birthday. It took 3 hours for us to make it through 10 holes of golf. When we were finishing hole 18 there were 4 carts and 8 patrons on the tee waiting to tee off, a group of 4 on the green, and a group of 5 on the tee box of hole 2. While myself and my father were considering membership here I assure you I will never return. If anyone from the course would like to contact me. My tee time was at 950 and I booked through GolfNow. My contact information is on here and the paperwork I filled out on the cart sheet. Though I doubt I will be contacted.

One spot left in the lot, waited on a cart to get clean so I can line up to tee off. Overheard one guy say it took him 5.5 hrs to play. Took my 2 some about 5 hrs. The course is in major disrepair. They used literal bags of concrete, unopened and solid from wetting them, then half way peeled off the labels as pavers. Hands down the laziest work I've ever seen. There's only 3 courses I can meet a friend at half way, so I'll be back for hot deals only. They pulled all the water coolers, so pack some of your own drinks.

The course was in terrible shape, the greens, fairways, tee boxes, cart paths, everything was horrible!

New owners have done a great job over the last couple years improving the course conditions, adding a driving range, new carts, all without drastically raising the cost to play. Greens are always thick, and while there’s only a few straight putts, they are true and fair.

Good mix of tough holes and scoring holes. Highly recommend for the price they charge.

I drove an hour to be SCAMMED by this TERRIBLE course. The owner had the audacity to charge me $70 in the afternoon while everyone else in my group paid $45. As soon as I noticed and asked for a receipt, he refused, said “no refunds,” and KICKED ME OFF THE PROPERTY. My friends bill was cheaper with a $15 sleeve of balls!

THE OWNER SHOULD BE ARRESTED FOR FRAUD. THIS IS COMPLETELY ILLEGAL, AND I’M REPORTING THIS IMMEDIATELY.

I’m filing complaints with Georgia Attorney General’s Office for fraudulent business practices & Georgia Department of Revenue for failing to provide receipts and possible tax fraud.

This place is a scam, and I’ll make sure as many people as possible know about it.

The course has some construction areas and cart paths need lots of help. Holes 15-17 were confusing but overall what we really liked as an actual ranger to keep pace of play moving. That is key for us who play a nice steady pace.

Owners have done a great job with the improvements over the last couple years. Greens are always good, and the addition of a driving range adds to the value. Good assortment of tough holes and scoring holes.
