Nice day
I teed off around 12:30, and the pace of play was a little slow (a couple of multi-group backups on the next tee), but got done in 4 hours, so not too bad. Greens looked very lush with few blemishes in them, with the tradeoff being they were pretty slow. The bunkers have now been filled in with good sand, and are very playable, which was nice
Same old song and dance
I seem to never learn on this course. Pace of play has been abysmal for years now, and 2023 is no different. 20 minutes per hole, like clockwork. Quit after 9 holes, due to it being 3 hours and 2 minutes into the round. As I told my playing partners “ I enjoyed it, but not enough to spend another three hours out here.” Probably the 5th or 6th time I’ve quit, after 9 holes, despite paying for 18, at this course, in the last 5 years. No marshals either.
Typical Behavior
Used to play here all the time! Stopped due to ridiculous practice of unregulated and unorganized tee off schedule coupled with 6-9 min tee times. Went back to give it another shot on & will never be back! The cashier check in gentleman has zero customer service and just is an old grumpy guy. Clearly hates dealing with people. Booked to play 18 (wasn’t allowed to book 9) and when I arrived I was told we couldn’t do 9. Of course I didn’t agree so the manager came over and changed the rate to 9. After paying we were told we have to tee off on back 9, no problem. However, it took 30 minutes to play hole 10 and wait on 11 tee box until I said screw it. 10 mins to play 10 and 20 mins wait on 11. We decided to not wait behind 4 groups of 6, 3, 5, & 1. When I went to ask for my money back I got huge attitude from the grumpy old gentleman and he only gave me a rain check and claimed the manager wasn’t there. No apology; no explanation; just attitude and displeasure like I was a nuisance. I walked off with my rain check and threw it in the trash. It is unfortunate that a golf course such as Bear Creek has lost all its ability for customer service and good experience that it should be able to provide to its patrons. Will never go to play there again. It is a shame.
Bear Creek
Greens were rolling very well. Cart path only was not necessary, slows play. I don’t know when it rained last there but no puddles on the fairways. Should have known, Walters management
Great Course, better during warm months
As most courses, it suffers a little during winter months. Lots of rain has left it quite wet (my excuse for all the fat hits I had). I genuinely love this course, just wish the on-course amenities weren’t so lacking. Bathrooms disgusting and no ball cleaners or water on the course.
Fun and low key course
I have played this course many times. Always fun. They are still working on a few areas, but it is easy enough to get around.
Pace of play big problem
Had a tee time in the AM and didn't even finish the round. Waited 20 minutes in between every shot. It wasn't even that busy either. Two foursomes of older guys hitting from the yellows backed the entire course up and had a careless attitude as to they didn't really care they were backing everyone up. At one point there was 5 different groups on hole 10. Took 2 and half hours just to get thru 4 holes. Seems to be like this every time i play here which is why i won't be back.
