Excellent shape
The service and snack bar are very well managed and efficient. The course itself is always in tip top shape. Regardless if your are in the middle of a 60 consecutive day drought, or it is raining, or you are playing in late November, their maintenance staff makes the course perfect every time. The also have an excellent green fee for seniors. I play all over central Indiana and Bear Slide rates up there with the best.

Love this place!
I've played here for years. The staff, course & beauty speaks volumes! Mark Wisman is the PRO such a great professional, he will help in any way from a simple lesson to planning an event outing for 100+ After playing here, if you"re bot impressed, chances are, nothing will!
Hi, thank you for your kind words! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing Bear Slide Golf Club.
This course has great layout.
Was a fun course to play. The only draw back was when we checked in, we were informed it was cart path only and greens were recently aerated. Unfortunate for us, because this course is truely a BEAR under these conditions Course was wet, causing the course to play longer, and requiring a lot more waking then if we would have had a pull cart. The course was in excellent condition except for being wet and recently aerated, has a great layout and was fun to play. Look forward to play it again when course conditions are dryer and green are normal.
Hi, we appreciate you leaving a review and rating us. We will make sure to inform the entire team, so they know their hard work is paying off. We look forward to having you back at Bear Slide Golf Club!
2.5 inches of rain overnight does sorta causes wet conditions which is why there were very few mowers and other equipment out. It is aeration season at courses all over as well.
Great Course
We went on a very raining morning and the course was still in great shape. There were a few wet spots obviously but that can’t be helped with the amount of rain the night before.
The course conditions were still amazing and the combination of a great layout, elevation change, and some tricky hazards really made for a wonderful round of golf.
I highly recommend this course to anyone and will most certainly be back.

No discount after aerification
I realize that it's the time of the year for aerification and top-dressing, but when we were charged $75 per player when we booked online, I thought maybe they had not started theirs yet. We were very disappointed to pay a premium price for less than premium conditions.
I have always been a huge fan of this course and the variety of holes it offers; just disappointed that the first timers in my group did not have the opportunity to experience the table greens it usually has to offer. I don't know of a course that doesn't offer discounts immediately following aerification.

Must Play
The course could use a Marshall. We waited on every shot. There were at least two holes open ahead of the group in front of us. Except for that, it was a very enjoyable round. All the staff we interacted with was great. I played the course five years ago and it is every bit as nice now as it was then. I would absolutely recommend this course to the better than average golfers.

Course was generally in good shape, but Very wet in some places. Need to work on their drainage in some fairways.
You played Monday. After letting the course dry down for a tournament over the weekend the fairways got extra water Monday morning. Isaac Newton called it gravity. Knobs very dry as water runs down hill making lower spots wet. Even more difficult during a DROUGHT. Sprinklers turn in circles thus not providing even coverage.

Beautiful Course
It is a scenic course in excellent condition, especially at this time of year. Extremely challenging; a shot makers course. The layout of the back nine is very contrived. It seems like they really struggled with the topography.
Your feedback is important to us. Thank you for sharing your 5-star experience. We look forward to seeing you again at the course soon! Thanks for choosing Bear Slide Golf Club.

One of the Best Courses in Central Indiana
This course is just perfection. Wonderful links style front nine with a back nine that's more of what you would see in America.
It's well-maintained. Pace of play is excellent. Overall one of the best courses to play in Central Indiana.
Wow, we are so happy you enjoyed your round with us! We look forward to seeing you again soon.
The course has a great layout with great sight lines which test every club in the bag. Must hit fairways and greens or pay the price. Greens were in pretty good shape that rolled with great pace. Enjoyed the round and will be back.

Bear Slide still a gem
Not sure I've ever seen the fairways in as pristine shape as today. Greens soft . . . maybe too much so? Regardless, this is my favorite piece of property in the state of IN. Walking in mid to upper 80s was a workout but we were ready for it. The closing holes were the tough stretch to walk.
Thanks for the great feedback. The crew really appreciates when I pass the comments along. Have to water a little heavier sometimes as our college and high school kids are gone. Not enough staff to back off on the water and drag hoses to hit the dry knobs etc. like we can when in the summer.
Hi, thank you for your kind words! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing Bear Slide Golf Club.
Beautiful course
Love this course set up with the front nine a links style course to the back side like a western (US) golf course. Plenty of tee options for the difficulty level you would like. Greens and fairways in great condition. Even in the world of covid the bunkers were in great condition.
Wow, we are so happy you enjoyed your round with us! We look forward to seeing you again soon.
