Bear's Best Las Vegas

I booked our tee time online, got to the course just to find out it was in awful condition for over seeding. No where on their website did they say they were over seeding. I asked the person checking us in about it and he said "that's the breaks when you book online" really so this is how it is playing a Jack Nicholas course. He told me this is what all the golf coursed in Vegas are like this time of year. I live in Las Vegas not a tourist playing and not all courses are like this. I will never go back to this place. By the way we ended up playing another course that day and they were extremely nice and the course was in great shape. Management should take a hard look at how you treat people that are not members. Terrible service.

Views, Jack explains every hole and the pace was great.

This was a great course…from the time you arrive to the time you leave the staff was top notch…I loved the layout and hold from some of Jacks most famous courses - I even made a nice par at 18…my only complaint is that when you make a reservation to play and pay $180 for a round of golf it would be nice to know that the greens had been punched the day before…the greens were very sandy, bumpy, and slow…there could have been a discounted price for the condition of the greens…

Unfortunately, the course had some areas where grass was damaged, probably by weather. The real problem, undisclosed to us before we played, was the greens had been heavily sanded. Putting was not enjoyable or playable. This should have been disclosed by TeeOff, by the description on the course, or by a confirmation letter.

Second time playing here, good test of your game. Had some wind during the round which made it tough to find the right club. Pace of play was good.

A quick trip to Vegas and Bear’s Best is a highlight of the trip. Very interesting course and in amazing shape. I would highly recommend the course.

Course was in amazing shape. Such an interesting course and we all thoroughly enjoyed it!

First time to Bear’s Best Las Vegas with hopes of a Great round of golf and I was not disappointed.

Upon arrival, bag drop attendant cheerfully greeted us. Provided clear directions and took our bags to cart.

The pro shop was small and quaint, but not lacking in anything you might want or need for your golf game.

Practice range was in good shape, but the hitting stalls were packed and had to wait for a spot. Good thing all range balls were free.

It was also nice to see the junior golf teaching program in full effect, nurturing future golfers.

Everything awesome so far and I’m not even to the course yet.

The best part of the day was 18 holes of pristine maintained tee boxes, fairways and slick putting greens. (Running at least an 11).

The track is challenging, fun and beautiful all at the same time.

If you are looking for a great round of golf, don’t miss Bear’s Best. So far my favorite course in Las Vegas. Unless you can get onto Shadow Creek.

Weather was terrible. 40kt winds and rain/hail 30s windchill. Hard rain after 8 holes and received rain check half dues. Staff was excellent.

This course is not set up for average golfers. There are no tee boxes between 5k and 6k yards, so the front nine was a major disappointment with one drive and one chip on. There should be a tee box in between. I played from the whites on the back 9 and enjoyed the course more.

Challenging day of golf. Conditions were fine but a windy afternoon made this one mother of a course!

For the money, I recommend it if you want a nice course that is well maintained. You can find cheaper ones that are just as nice but they won't be a Nicklaus course. Desert style course that can be difficult when windy (and it was windy for all 8 rounds we played that week).

Well organized operation. Excellent course layout and conditions.

Bears best is an excellent course. The holes are unique and it was fun to see where each hole was from. Great conditions, it was in excellent shape. Some tricky greens but they were a good challenge. They have a great practice area and pretty good food.

Class act. Greens were a bit bumpy but no complaints other than that.
