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.

A very nice golf course.
Considering all the play it gets the course was in excellent condition. Lots of tee choices, too
Quality course
Highly recommend, course was in very good shape, greens were reasonable speed!! Unlike other courses I played in the area this week were incredibly slow. Much accolades to the Bear trap crew!!
Needs some TLC and Mich Better Pace of Play
Great layout and staff. Bunkers in bad shape. Greens inconsistent and bumpy. Tee boxes beat up. Fairways surprisingly lush. Worst part was pace of play. No staff on course to move things along - Wild West with backups everywhere.
Good course conditions
With a discount from Golf Now, the playing experience was very good. Having range balls included along with the course conditions, we had a great time. Greens were rolling well too! The only knock was an increasingly slow play as we approached and made the turn. Didn't see much course help to move things along which is always definitely appreciated, especially on a hot summer day.
Rata
Good course for value & quality at a beach course. Good greens, clean tee boxes, fairways could be cut a bit shorter. Club house & restaurant are top level for a public course.
Great walking courses
First, the Staff was Excellent! Everyone from Starter/ Cart guys/Pro Shop. Everyone was very Professional and had Great Customer Service skills. That goes a mile for me. 3 9 Hole Courses that when I play again, I will walk. You don't need a Driver if you hit over 225 yards. 3 wood is fine. The real test here is keep in the Fairway and your scoring is 100 yards in. Alot of bunkers so be careful. I enjoyed my round. A little pricey but what's not now a days.
Great course
Country club feeling for the day. Course in great shape staff is super friendly. Will definitely be back
Awesome
One of the best in the area, country club amenities. Starter is awesome, very accommodating staff, course conditions are top notch. One extra club at sea level. Love it each time I play here. High fives to the crew, great work!
Good Course To Play If You Snag A Prepaid Hot Deal.
Enjoyed it very much.
Nice layout (Black Bear - Grizzly).
Would play again when I’m back in the area, especially for a Hot Deal.
Didn’t get to play - rainout
It’s a shame golfnow states they do not offer refunds on hot deals. Rained out by the first hole. $100 down the drain.
