Bear Trap Dunes Golf Club - Kodiak/Black Bear Course
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 course, windy day
Great course, windy day
We played the black bear and the grizzly. For February golf, the course was in great condition. It seems that the greens were aerated not so long ago, but they were in great shape, still very true. Sand was fluffy despite recent rains. The wind was very strong on the day that we played.
The pace of play was good. We finished the round in just over 3 1/2 hours, which is excellent
plenty to come back for
The course is well maintained in winter and I look forward to playing this mix of elevation, water and sand again in-season
Good value in the winter months
Really enjoyed playing Black Bear and Grizzly. Pretty easy course, especially since it’s under repair in the winter and we played from the white tees. Good value for the money in the winter while the summer is a little bit steep. Not many areas to get in trouble along the fairway, but the greens make up for it with major undulation. I would definitely recommend this course to my friends and will come back myself!
Soggy wet course
Still can’t complain 60 degrees in January to play. Slow due to cart path only and the wetness of the course.
Course was in very good shape, greens were rolling true. Atmosphere is always fun during & following the round.
Very playable
Course was in very playable condition compared to other courses played in the area. Straightforward layout and fair. Enjoyed the round.
Course in good shape. Trouble with Golf Now
I have played here many times over the years. The course was in fine shape from the tee boxes to the bunkers to the greens. Good job!
I tried to use my credits on Golf Now to book a tee time where you pay Golf Now and not Bear Trap. I tried this twice and Bear Trap simply would not confirm the tee time. But when I reserved a tee time whereby I paid Bear Trap the tee time was confirmed. Annoying.
However, I had a fine round the following day.
