I really like Bear Trap Dunes
Winter golf rates are so.affordable through Golf Now. Played Thursday and Friday and my rate was $25 per round. Staff is great, and the course is in pretty good shape for mid-February.

Price is great this time of the year
I don’t often get to play out during the summer because of the rates going so extremely high however, through Golf now this course is extremely affordable and in great shape for the winter. I truly wish all coarses around here would offer rates to residence of Delaware, So that the locals could play all year round at affordable rates

Always fun
Fun course - every hole is different and clubhouse is great. Greens were punched, but we knew that in advance. But when there’s 12” of snow in Canada, we were delighted to be at Bear Trap.
