Bear Trap Dunes Golf Club - Kodiak/Black Bear Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Bear Trap Dunes Golf Club sits along the Eastern Shore, sprawling across a scenic landscape of coastal dunes and grassy hollows. There are 27 championship holes at the club that are played in three different 18-hole combinations. The nines, Grizzly, Kodiak, and Black Bear, are all different though they share many of the same features including winding fairways lined with native wetland grasses and oversized greens flanked by strategically placed traps. The Kodiak/Black Bear combination follows the natural contours of the coastal terrain, fully utilizing the ample sand dunes that cover the landscape. There is also plenty of water that comes into play throughout. All three golf courses at Bear Trap Dunes are challenging but they are fair and player friendly enough to appeal to a wide range of skill levels.

Great courses
Enjoyed the round - really nice, well layed out and challenging courses. The time of year we played made it a little tough to play meaning the traps were wet and there was a lot of goose poop close to ponds. However, I have played during the summer and goose poop was not an issue. Has a nice club house and good off season prices at the restaurant. New golf carts with GPS and synthetic leather seats were nice to have as well.
Great day of Winter Golf
Wonderful day of golf. A bit wet in spots but it was expected after the thaw.
sun in February
course(s) in generally good shape. Greens still recovering from late season 2025 aeration plugs and did not track true. And range not open due to machine dispenser being frozen/jammed up. No Balls. Even the worst Pro's warms up a bit so amateurs definitely need it in order to have a respectable & pleasant round.
Enjoyable
Wide fairways large greens. Plenty of bunkers and water hazards. Very enjoyable to play.
The 2 toughest 9 hole courses, Black Bear and Grisley
The courses are long and tough. An unforgiving 18 hole but a good challenge.
Great course
The facility was excellent and the course was perfect
