Bear Trap Dunes Golf Club - Black Bear/Grizzly Course

Thoroughly enjoyed the course and interactions with all staff was extremely pleasant

The Black Bear and Grizzly 9's were so much fun. The layout is challenging, but very fair. Greens were slow. The problem we encountered was a foursome ahead of us, that was incredibly slow, and would not allow us to play through (we were a twosome). A very do-able 4 hour round turned out to be a 5 hour round. A ranger could have alleviated this issue. Otherwise, we definitely want to return!

Great course very friendly staff. Disappointed no one mentioned aeration prior to spending the money. Not able to putt really. Super bouncy and untrue. Definitely recommend calling to check before booking. Would certainly recommend and will play again.

Course was very wet so cart path only. That really slowed the pace of play. Greens had just been aerated and top dressed with sand, so putting was impossible. Rates seemed to have been adjusted, so round was still worth the price.

Had a great round at Bear Trap. The course was in very good condition given the fact that it is late February in DE. It was cartpath only which can and was annoying but understandable. But the course was in fact pretty dry. Not crowded which is unusual for this course. But it is Feb 23 after all.

Course was in great shape for this time of the year. Greens were punched but that is not uncommon. Pace of play was very good. Kind of cold and windy but unfortunately Bear Trap can’t control that. Great value!

Pace of play was to slow to finish 18 holes before darkness set in . Tee time was 1:03 pm. Bar and pub was reserved for a trivia contest and non players were not allowed in the bar.

Nice course but they had aerated the greens so slow and bumpy but it is off season so to be expected

Great course with no two holes alike and lots of interesting greens. Staff were friendly and very helpful.

We played in late November, hi 30's with a very stiff, constant wind. Only two tee box options and the greens were punched, but you could still see how this place must be good during better weather.

Look forward to getting to play it again when are back in the summer.

I need to give Eric Mson and Brooks Ward a "thumbs-up" for a very positiver customer experience. Eric came out of his office to help my partner and I with our Troon points (never an easy task without a prior written approoval). And Brooks for rearranging the tee sheet to allow my partner and I to play as a towsome (my partner recovering from an operation monts ago -- his first time out since the procedure).

Even though a windy day and cart path only -- the course is in great shape in such a nice community. When in area, add Bear Trap to your list of courses to play.

Also, compliments to the Starter (very polite) and for the nice lady working the Snack Bar.

We play here regularly and the course is generally well maintained and with 36 holes offers nice variety. We had some pace of play issues in the past but the starter today was very on top of it and did his best to route us to improve the pace. Much appreciated and it was just over 4 hours despite some waits not too bad for our twosome. Staff is friendly, greens were quite fast and true and the conditions were good. For $55 on GN it was a very good value for the money
