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.

Over priced compared to others.
Fairways and greens very good.
Off fairway conditions not good.
Excellent time, beautiful course.
Incredibly surprised at the friendliness of the staff, the professionalism, and attention to details that make this a great course. Beautiful course. Overall a great experience. I see why this is one of the more popular courses. We will be back!
Nice course
Nice course in good condition and friendly staff. Expensive but better deal than other courses in area.
The course was in great condition
this is a good place to play golf just a little overpriced but generally speaking the best within 15 miles
Nice layout
This course is a nice layout with some great looking holes. Enough water to annoy you but if your striping the ball you will be fine. The starter sent a twosome on the bear course and when I finished Kodiak there was a foursome and a twosome waiting at the 1st hole or the 10th for me. That is annoying and causes back ups. It is not right, I teamed up with the twosome so it was not that terrible. However, do the right thing and don't let people cut into the rounds.
Fantastic course
Course was in prestige conditions. Rewarded for hitting fairways as some pins were tucked nicely and required you hitting from the short grass. Staff was great too. We will for sure be coming back.
Great time
Course was in fantastic shape, pace of play went smooth, staff was great.
Love this course!!
Really enjoy this course every time we play. Always in good shape, great staff.
Nice course
We’ll laid out course. Course has 3 different nines. I played the twilight time with a cheaper rate. Not sure in my opinion it’s worth $125 for a round.
The course was really nice. The greens were firm and rolled well.
Bummer that the carts don’t have gps on them.
I had a twosome in front of me that could have let me played through. They were younger and one played 2 balls on a few occasion off the tee box while I was sitting there waiting. I wasn’t in a huge rush but the offer would have been nice.
Awesome day
Had a PERFECT weather day on Monday at Bear Trap. Played two of the three nines in the early afternoon in about four hours. The only bad news for me was that the range was closed on Mondays so I couldn't warm up.
using the Tee off app saved me a TON of money too!
Excellent time
Great course, friendly and helpful service! Always enjoy Playing this beautiful course.
B4 Memorial Day weekend
Course was in great shape from the tee box to the greens including the sand traps. New carts. Great practice area. I got around in 3:45 which was unusual but enjoyable.
Fantastic Experience
Thoroughly enjoyed the course and interactions with all staff was extremely pleasant
