Bear Mountain Golf Course

Others on the course were just as nice as the staff here... Will definitely be back for another round soon

Amazing helpful staff and beautiful course. We had a great time and will definitely be back. Probably have to bring the wives next time

This is my local course and I try to love it but the pace of play and the fees are a little high IMO.
The layout is fun and challenging and overall the course was in good shape.

Course was nice and views are even better. Pace of play was terrible the first five holes were backed up with a group of eight players 3 holes ahead. 2 1/2 hours to play 9. Had to buy a collard shirt in the pro shop per MANDATORY dress code, even though a threesome finished with one wearing a t-shirt and another in a tank top/wife beater , pro shop said they “must have got past them”

We had a 2:30 tee time, Pull up to the tee box with 3 groups ahead of us. A pair of walkers came up behind us and jumped in front of me and my son. I didn’t mind cause my son is 6 but then it Took 45 minutes to play the first hole. I left and demanded a refund after.

The people are great. My 9 year old son and I played some of the most enjoyable golf we’ve played.

This is the only course available to play in Big Bear Lake, California. Overall this course is fun. I had a good time. The only thing is that the rates are kind of inflated however, it's the only course available in Big Bear Lake, California. For that reason, it's a great course. The people I played with were really nice. They were dog friendly because I have a service animal and it came automatically with a card. Overall, this is a nice course staff. A little iffy, however they were considered it when it came down to me wanting to take my service animal on the course. I would play it again though

I live in Georgia and Florida so my review is biased but this course was an afterthought by the owners of the Bear Ski resort. 9 hole course with 2000 ground squirrel holes, no grass tee boxes and torn up greens taking 5+ hours to play because there are no marshalls to speed up play. For $70 (senior rate) you can play some very nice courses back East. Only play if you are desperate.

1) Cashier very rude. The group ahead of us walked out angrily swearing about her bad attitude. I went in and had a similar experience. Young brunette woman.
2) Waited one hour past scheduled tee time due to girls HS tourney. No good reason for this delay. It should have been planned. timing should have been understood before selling tee times to others.
3) more gopher eradication effort required
4) greens pretty darned good
5) Approach to #3 green both before and after walking bridge needs MAJOR improvement. Very difficult pushing or pulling a walking cart through there.

Greens are like lightning, super challenging. Course is in such a great spot. It’s 100 degrees down the hill and it was 72 degrees up here. Perfect Summer relief for the golf addiction.
