Always golf ready!

Well managed and plays fair, except for the bunkers and low areas after Spring rains; be aware that CPO is determined the morning of play. Tee to green conditions are above average; depending on the tee box, requires some course management as you play, Range and clubhouse amenities are above average. Overall, a fun course with reasonable green fees.

Nice course!

This course was very well kept especially considering it is early March. Tee boxes looked great. It was a challenging but fun course. Only complaint is that the layout of each hole felt repetitive. Almost every hole the greens were elevated and surrounded by bunkers on the right and left. Great deal on golf now for 18 holes, $54 for 2 people. Weekend rates are around $50-$60 per person! I would love to come back and give this course another try.

Long day at Beat Creek Golf Course

It took 3 HOURS to play the first nine holes. 2 foursomes and sometimes 3 on every hole. Teed off at 12:14pm and could not finish the round due to overbooking and darkness. It’s a shame because the golf course was in good shape.

Bear Creek October 2023

Driving range facility is good.
Tee boxes in poor condition and mostly rock hard making it difficult to insert tee into ground. Lots of repair work throughout course.

Constant maintenance challenge

The course started out in great shape in mid to late spring. Then, after many, many public tournaments,, the course became far less maintained. several greens have damage, and several fairways have lots of dirt and mud along side cart paths entrances, and beside the greens The carts were very dirty yesterday, and appeared to be under there third or fourth golf course lease. The Golf course maintenance budget must have got severely cut this year.
