Pace of Play

BC is always in solid shape. Range and club house are nice. Staff can sometimes be uninviting, but are solid for the most part. However, the pace of play is awful. Consistently 5+ hours - almost 6 last round there. Its obvious the course overbooks tee times, because its not like people are playing slow, theres just too many people crammed together.

Bear Creek December

Course was essentially cleared of leaves which was very good. Tee boxes were in extremely poor condition. Pace of play was far to slow. Took 3 plus hours to complete 9 holes. Club in my opinion over booked number of tee times. They need to put a greater gap between tee times - hopefully they are not just thinking of revenue. Had paid to play 18 but there was not a hope of playing 18 once we realized pace of play and number of players playing.

Slow and unhelpful

Place of play was terrible. Went off 35 minutes after tee time and took 3 hours to play 9 holes. Staff also wouldn’t provide rain check due to it now being almost dark after 9 holes

Pace is SLOOOOWWWW

Back in August I got a rain check because 9 holes took nearly 3 1/2 hours. Returned last week and the pace was better but still slooow! Front 9 was actually decent but then had a group jump us on 9 and Marshal did nothing about it. Just sat and watched as we waited for them to wait for green to clear to tee off. Overall, they book tee times too close together and allow groups of 5 to play together.

Booking

Every time I play there they over book. We were 20 minutes behind teeing off. After the turn it took 1 hour to get through two holes I ended up leaving because it was a 6 hour pace of play. I will never play Bear Creek again.
