Bear Creek Golf Complex - Bear Course
Rating Snapshot
About
The Bear Course is one of two courses at the Bear Creek Golf Complex; it is a championship-length course while the other, the Cub Course, is an executive length course. The Bear Course is an inland, links-style course with rolling fairways and well-manicured greens. Strategically placed bunkers situated throughout the course add some challenge to the course. A round of golf on this course can be played in less than four hours. The Bear Creek Golf Complex, in addition to the two courses, also offers a full grass driving range, two putting greens, and a short game area with a bunker.

Pleasantly surprised
I've played this course previously and it wasn't in as good a shape as it is now. The pace of play was fine. Finished in 4 hours. I would imagine it also helps that it was a Tuesday. I like the layout as I'm partial to link style courses. Good deal for the money. I will play here again.
Exceeded my expectations
I haven't played here in years and was pleasantly surprised by the condition of the course. Fairways, greens and bunkers were in very good shape. Pace of play was better than I thought it would be, 4 hours start to finish. I will be back!
Nice course for moderate cost
Very flat course with little water and few bunkers. Great for beginners and fast play. Well maintained. Gas carts are very slow, but do you really need fast ones.
This course was a disappointment!
I thought this course would be a great course to play since it advertised as Jack Nicklaus team designed golf course. The pictures looked really nice but it was nothing to brag about. However, all the employees were super nice and friendly.
Great course
Always golf here. Greens are always in great condition.
And fairways were good as well.
Course is Looking Nice
Had an afternoon tee time and took just over 4 hours. Would have been faster but a tournament group in front of us was 2+ holes behind. Course was in good condition. Greens run fast and true. Very happy with conditions considering how a lot of courses in the East Valley are just crap as they are maintained poorly and charging way too much. Haven't golf here in a while but need to get it back in the rotation.
Great Golf
We had a great time and had a lot of laughs with the staff. We would play that course again and hiighly recommend it to our friends.
Overall it was a great day.. the staff was super friendly and super accommodating. One of the guys I was golfing with was running late, and they pushed our tee time back a half hour. We hit the course and we were not disappointed, from tee to Green the course was in great shape. The greens were in great shape, they held shots and putted true.. give this course a try, you will not be disappointed
Fun, fast and Forgiving
Played the same ball all day. Definitely hit a couple off target too. True greens, some tough pin locations. Fun course would play again.
