Great layout
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.
Another great round at Bear Trap
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.
Great
Awesome, cart path only because of rain, but all around wonderful!
Fun course
I often play as a single and the staff are excellent at either pairing me up with other players or allowing me to play as a single on whichever 9 isn't crowded.
The course was in excellent condition with moderately paced greens.
Always a beautiful course to play
some very big greens, a little bit of everything s far as water holes, pin placement, traps, trees etc...I am not good golfer by any means, but one of my favorite courses to play. Grass was high today which made it extra challenging. Never a bad choice for a round of golf.
3 good nines.
Played black bear and grizzly. A few days before we played they plugged all the
greens, they forgot to mention that to us. Course in good shape for all the rain they had. We got paired up with 2 guys who wanted to play the blended tees. Par threes were all good, lots of bunkers, lots of water.
First Outing Of The Season
Staff was a #1 & the course was in excellent shape, for so early in the season.
Two half’s
The set up was crazy! The front Kodak course only had forward tees and a combo tee that was moved all the way up. Waaay to short. Most of the par 4 left me with half wedges into green. Course was in ruff shape after winter but loved the layout and staff was nice and friendly
The back 9 was black bear where all tee boxes was available, I played from the back tees to make up for the short front. That 9 was in better shape but not as pretty as the other one. Great value
Good course.
Got a good deal under 20 bucks. Very cold today mid 30s. Three nine hole courses. I’d go back to try the one I we didn’t play. Lots of sand traps some water. Fair challenge
Best value at the beach using Golf Now.
Played 2ce this week using Golf Now. Closed out 2018 and started 2019 at Bear Trap Dunes. Great time. Looking forward to coming back
Wonderful and a real value!
Great rates on golf now they have three 9 hole courses all super !
