Bear Trap Dunes

I have played these three nines many times over the years and I have to say course conditions were very good. The folks managing the courses accommodated several semi-large groups including a 12 some wanting a nine hole replay without disturbing the rest of the players out on the course. It took us a little over 4 hours to complete the round There was some waiting but not bad. 19th hole is great. Lots of TVs inside for watching sports and outside the patio has a beautiful view. Check GOlf Now for special prices, they change often. And beware the Oceanview PD speedtraps. Recently I was over the speed limit for all of ten seconds and they pulled me over like I was John Dillinger. Way over-reacted and wrote me a whopping ticket. Very unhappy about this. I think twice about going through Oceanview anymore.

We have played Bear Trap several times , when vacationing in the area. This year the conditions on the course were not good. The normally plush fairways were pretty torn up. Many bare spots and very thin overall. In addition, we had made a reservation ahead of time, arrived early, but some pushy guy came along and insisted that he get out on the course. They let them go out ahead of us! We didn’t appreciate that.

Course told me golf now wanted them to collect fee at course and fee was charged by golfnow direct. They honored the email confirmation and did not charge me.

Good vacation option. Not difficult. Plays quickly. Good bar. No issues here and will go again.

We had heavy thunderstorms in the afternoons prior to the day playing Bear Trap. Course was very wet in the fairways, and cart path only. Greens and tee boxes were in great shape. No fault of the course, just dealing with late summer weather. Staff was fantastic, very friendly and helpful. The course was a nice variety of holes and scenery. Played as a single and was paired with another single and a double who were great to play with. Very enjoyable day. Thanks.

Played Grizzly and Kodiak 9s. Greens were in excellent shape. Very friendly and professional staff, finished 18 holes just under 4 hours.

Despite the drought, course was in good condition. The greens and fairways we good. Tees and roughs were showing some signs of drought but still very playable. Played as a twosome on a pretty busy day and still made it around in 3 1/2 hours. Good day!

Even after a night of rain and cloudy skies the course was in great shape.

Many holes are straight aways; however, the dunes, sand traps and pin placements made the course challenging and fun to play. The greens were in great condition after one of the hottest weeks of the year and a night of heavy rains.

The benefit of having three 9-hole courses allows for Bear Trap Dunes to control the pace of play - I played the Kodiac and Black Bear 9s. I was in a twosome and we had a two hole buffer between the next group.

The staff was friendly and I will be returning.

Played with my dad for the $65 rate after 3 PM. My family has a home here and we are seasonal residents. My dad and I play this course almost every weekend in the summer, and come away more and more impressed each time we play. From the moment you step on the property, the friendliness and attentiveness of the staff is second to none. The clubhouse is beautiful, the practice area is the best at the shore, and the course is in phenomenal shape from tee to green. The 19th hole isn’t bad either, as the full service bar and food selection is excellent for a golf course. I highly recommend this course to anyone who wants to enjoy a nice afternoon on the course, regardless of skill level. It is absolutely worth the price of admission.

Awesome, cart path only because of rain, but all around wonderful!
