Bear Trap Dunes

Great little community close to the beach. Pools, golf, shuttle to the beach, and a restaurant. Great for an evening walk after dinner.

My biggest concern with our dinner here was: it was our server's first day & she was completely incompetent. She left out drinks on the bar for 20 minutes even after we asked for them. My dinner was not the one that I ordered but was the special that evening. I got the queen size prime rib with mashed potatoes & it was delicious. My daughter got the salmon & she was very pleased. The brownie sundae was terrific. The server recommended a grapefruit crush & that was a big hit. In summary the food was very good & reasonably priced because it was not the body season yet but the server needs to get some more practice before she goes it alone. Oh, & there was a live band. Very fun & not too loud.

I love this course. The fairways are nice and wide for the most part and the grass was in great condition. The only thing that would have been better would be a natural grass driving range. I love the layout though. Nice sand and just enough hazards to keep the game interesting without making it overly difficult for the average golfer. Very fun course.

Bear Trap – The Den – has a fresh modernized look and feel at the combo bar and restaurant for an upbeat spot that servers both the golfers and now days more locals. I am excited to see the new head chef next time and new plus ups to the menu.

Last week in the -5 degree wind chill weather at the beach, The Den was fully open - now days thru the week for lunch and dinner all week long. Daily specials are greats in the deal off-season. On Sunday we tried the prime rib sliders – awesome for $8 with real prime rib shaved meat. Wine selections are simple and good per wife. All the key football games were on and it was a great relaxing time spent there. We ate at the bar on Monday and had a nice conversation with John, bar manger over the cream of crab soup – real white lump crab meat at $7 and a turkey club since we were pressed for time. The variety of the daily specials except Saturday, great service and quality food keeps us coming back on each trip.

Great course, great play, fun times. 3 9 hole courses for a short round or a long show down with the guys. Plenty of water and sand traps to offer a challenge. I played on a busy afternoon and I still played pretty quick. I would recommend checking out this course if you have the chance.
