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 little disappointed
course was good but i was expecting a little more for the money. if you are in the area do not play Baywood Greens first because Bear Trap will be a letdown.
good course but certainly not great.
Hot day - fun time
We played as two couples (scramble). We are very average golfers but were able to stay out of trouble and enjoyed our round. You won't be disappointed playing this course.
want to recommend to my friends
course was very enjoyable and condition of the course was fantastic
Kodiac grizzly
Overall it was a very good day of golf
Staff is helpful and friendly
The sand traps need work
Perfect day
We as usual enjoyed Bear Trap. We liked the course, and we had no wait.
Best Value at the beach
I play this course 10 or 12 times a year and love it every time. The course is as good or better than any in the Ocean city area. The staff is great and I never seem to wait very long for the beverage cart.
not Bear bones!
real nice 27holes. Plenty of challenge for everyone. Play the back tees and buckle up. Play the whites and have fun. two boxes in between. something for everyone.
Great course but...
The course is beautiful and well maintained but the range was very beat up and there was no beverage cart service ( I assume this is because it's early in season but they should let players know)
Bear Trap Dunes
Great course. Always enjoy playing it. No trick shots needed!
Very good but tight.
Stupid windy day. Course was very good condition. Just tough to keep it in the fairway with 30 mph crosswinds. Really nice place tho. All around. I'll be back. Without the wind.
great course
course was in very good condition, greens were also very good. staff was very helpful. just doesn't get much better.
Bear Trap Golf
This course was in great shape and was a great value
Nice place to play when in the Bethany Beach Delaware or Ocean City Maryland area.
Nice layouts. 3 nines help create variety if you want to play Bear Trap more than once. I live in the area and play here often. Staff is helpful and friendly. Practice area is top notch. Courses are laid out such that you feel as if you are the only golfers on the course. Course is very well taken care of.
Great 27 holes
Awesome track by the beach! Troon management gives you a good bang for the buck! Great challenging conditions too!
Best course in DE
I play here as often as I can; in my opinion the best course in the State (DE).
Beautiful course and very well maintained
Bear Trap Dunes is one of my most favorite courses in the area. The 3 nine hole layouts are extremely well designed and scenic. The staff is friendly and the courses are well maintained.
This course is in great overall shape. The greens, fairways, and rough are in super condition which made for a very enjoyable round.
We played the Kodiak and Black Bear courses and they made for a fun day. We had the course almost to ourselves so we could play at our pace with no wait and no one pushing us. The greens, fairways and rough we're excellently maintained, but the sand traps need some attention, so try to avoid them. The course is scenic and has some beautiful views. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Overall, a great experience and we plan to return.
The course was in great shape. It hardly felt like a November day.
Greens were a little fast but the overall condition of the the course was excellent. Using GolfNow.com provided an excellent value and a very enjoyable afternoon of golf.
Good course with the reduced rate
The course is well maintained and I enjoy playing there. Great clubhouse and restaurant also.
Breezy but beautiful
My wife and I decided we wanted to play golf on Sunday morning so I checked tee times on GolfNow.com. We got a great deal for early afternoon. The course was in good shape with fast greens. We played in under 3.5 hours. The wind was blowing, but it was a wonderful sunny day we couldn't pass up.
