The green fee pricing is much like the Texas weather. It seems to change about every 2 hours. If they had some consistency to their pricing, I would play more, but they occasionally get full of themselves and over inflate the green fees, which makes the course non-competitive for the area that has many excellent golf courses. I love the courses at Bear Creek, but not enough to over pay for a playing privilege. My favorite is the West, but the East is good too. I have played here on and off since it originally opened as one 18 hole track with Don January involved in the design of the original 18 holes.
Would travel: 10-20 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Better than average course for the area, Fair priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
Layout, Price, Ambiance, No Houses on Course, Pace of Play
