Solid course
Great course to play when you can find a deal for around $25
Great course in great shape
Bear Creek is a challenging layout and is in great shape T to Green they were having a lot of trouble with there bunkers draining, but looks like they have that problem under control now and the bunker were dry and machine raked.
Good for the money
Some tee boxes very thin, bunkers mostly unplayable( all mud, very little sand) greens in pretty good shape, fast
Bear Creek
Got a good round in, was faster than usual. Pace of play has been an issue previously but was better this time
Good condition, average score, poor pace
Played on a weekend around noon so after the morning rush (it was hot so many started early). Course was in very good shape & we enjoyed our round except for the pace. We played behind a couple of guys who were hitting it all over the place. They were waiting too so we couldn't complain about them. When we made the turn the two guys were gone, but there was a foursome teeing off that we hadn't seen before. Thought maybe the back would be faster, but it was even worse.
Slow
The course was nice and seemed to be kept up pretty well. The pace of play was terrible. I was in a group of three and was backed up the entire time. It took us about 15 minutes per hole as we had to wait for multiple groups in front of us and we waited on every tee box for at least 5 minutes before being able to tee off, also due to waiting on groups in front of us. After completing hole 2, we could see that there were 3 groups backed up in front of us. This isn’t the first time I’ve experienced this on this course, I was hoping it would be different this time as I have this course another chance. Unfortunately it was the same result. I would not recommend playing this course, unless you are in absolutely no hurry and plan on playing a 6 hour round of golf.
Well taken care of course
Only issue was with the grouping and no starter to off set play. Took way longer due to a group of 4 and the Marshall driving around didn’t have them wait. To many in experienced people hitting multiple drives. Front staff kid was snarky. Good course and a lot of variables to play around with.
A Pandemic Gem
Simply put, the course conditions were phenomenal. This was my first round amidst the current pandemic and I was pleasantly surprised by Bear Creek. Typically, I expect course conditions to be reflective of the price, but they definitely bucked this trend. Every aspect of the course from tee box to green made it evident that the grounds crew take great pride in their jobs. I would consider this course one of the best bargains in the area.
Wonderful change in my coarse
I was always intimated to play Bear Creek, until the first time I played which was this year it is now my favorite place to golf. I compare it with Kanapali Maui but here local. Friendly patrons and also staff. I’ll see you all this Friday again!
Terrible pace of play
Don’t expect anything less than a 5 hour round here. They space out the tee times about 8 minutes in between each other. This course was like this about two months ago every time I went so stopped playing here for a while. Nearly two months later and the same thing is happening. At least a 10-15 minute wait on every tee box and another wait for approach shots. Couldn’t even finish 18 because it was so unbearably slow.
Sand traps away from Perfect
The course is in really good shape. The only downfall are the sandtraps. They are currently working on them, so hopefully before long this course will get a 5 star rating. Good job to Bear Creek and staff.
Also food is outstanding, almost too good for the turn. You may want to sit down and enjoy it.
Waterloo
This is a great course for the recreational golfer is challenging. Tons of water Sansa front of the greens, also nice greens well kept up.
Nice course, little pricey, Slow party
Nice course, greens in great condition. Pace of play was ridiculously slow. Cost a little high for the course.
Customer service
The staff needs customer service training at the front desk.
Slow again
Great public course, when you are able to finish it. For the second time in a month, I paid for 18 and walked off after nine. It took an hour and twenty minutes to play four holes and 3 hours and 2 minutes to play 9. Abysmal pace of play.
Good layout
I played the tips from 7,000 yds and it was a challenging but fair layout. A lot of well designed holes with some risk/reward on some. Conditions were good. Pace of play was adequate.
