Reviews of Golf Club At Bear Dance (Golf)

ray castellano

Beautiful course!

Tim Vaughn

A fun and scenic course. It is great shape.

edward flyer7

Great course just minutes from any Front Range location.

Steve Powell

Nice course open to the public.

Tom MacEgan

Not a golfer at all. I did some work here a while ago, but holy cow is this a beautiful place!

Joe Shmo

This place could be soooo much better if it were only for a couple changes. First and most Importantly the Head Pro (Mark Pfingston) might just be the Most unapproachable person I've ever met in my entire life! Seriously a head pro should be nice, helpful, and always pleasurable for any customers to be around. Mark is the complete opposite. Secondly is the way that they treat the very people that work for them. its disgraceful how badly they treat the outside service employees that work for them. they have the toughest job of any of the people at that place and they get treated like pieces of crap! Also just to make it worse i know for a fact that they don't let their employees play until after 2 only Mon-Thurs NO WEEKENDS! hahaha what a joke! The course in itself is great, but I'm not going to go out of my way to play there when i know ill have to deal with people like their head pro.

Jonathan Donalda

Nice culg club Dinner with friends We had a good time

Denver Native

What a beautiful course this is! I really enjoyed my round and I wish to go back soon. Greens are tough and fast. One of my favorite courses in Colorado, price is more than others but its worth every penny.

Jamie Yeomans

Great menu that changes seasonally with wonderful staff.

Scott Beard

Amazing mountain course right in our backyard!

Tim Cobbett

Wonderful every time

Donna Weatherly

We had my brother's birthday party there and it was really awesome

Jim Jackson

Challenging course, must add to your list when in Denver area. Always great greens. Friendly staff.

Paul Harris

Great food and service. My wife and I love this place.

Jake Miller

Fairways has plugs from aeration, greens still showing signs of being aerated/stamped which results in tricky putting. Pro shop items over priced!! The staff downstairs serving at the turn efficient. The staff upstairs serving large golf party not so efficient. Botton line, just an average golf course!

Garrett Metcalf

Bear dance made my trip to Colorado memorable, I loved every minute of my time at this course. When you show up the guys get you set up on a cart and send you up to pay, the facilities are well maintained and high end. Range is in good condition and balls are fairly new, pager system for the tee times is a great idea and was implemented well. I played Arrowhead, Omni, and fossil trace on my trip to Colorado/Denver area and bear dance was my favorite. This course is challenging and long from the tips but you feel as the course is your own private area. We did encounter a fivesome on 12 and they didn't let our twosome through until 15 but I filled the time waiting with photo taking so I wasn't too upset. If you're within two hours of this course pony up the cash and try it out, we played at 230 and only paid $75 which felt like a steal compared to the $140 we paid for Arrowhead in the morning.

Marshall Spezman

An all time favorite place to eat. Fine dining or casual fair, always a great experience!

Mark Ricketson

The BEST public track on the front range. Not cheap but well worth it. Awesome practice facility and well maintained from tee to green. SMOKE FREE facility meaning you CANNOT smoke on the course. This is real due to the fact that the course is a gas soaked rag in a tinder box waiting to catch fire. NO JOKE! I have seen sparks from a golf club start a small fire on #11 when the group ahead of us hit a shot from the waste area to the right of the fairway.

John Robison

Excellent course, staff and in very good condition. My only beef is that it is a bit expensive.

Kris Tower

Solid, challenging golf course. Scenic views. Pace of play was great. A mountain/foothills course without gimmicks. Definitely recommend.

Colin McGuire

Fantastic golf course with a friendly and helpful staff.

Walt Goshert

My favorite Front Range CO golf course. Challenging, great course conditions, solid practice area. Great golf experience for the money for better players.

sroon

Lived in AZ for 40 years and use to post about 125 rounds a year all at various courses. You name it in AZ, very good chance I've played it public and private including Whisper Rock. Many rounds in Florida, Texas, Oregon, Vegas and California. Bear Dance is hands down one of my tops. Gorgeous. Outstanding design. Awesome use of hills, creeks, forest, rock formations, natural contours. Ya.... it's my favorite.

Steve Wilson

Wow! Have played a lot of courses, this is by far the best public course I have ever played. Ranks right up there with some private courses I've played. This is a must play if you are in the Denver area. Definitely going back to play again when I return to Denver.

Mark Scheribel

My favorite golf course in Colorado. Food and service are always exceptional also!

Denis Burns

Brilliant golf course, stunning views. Unfortunately the greens let the experience down because of all the unrepaired pitch marks.

Jennie Johnston

Wasn't playing golf, I was just walking it, beautiful sight though.

Jeffrey Gerretsen

If i could give 10 stars i would everthing and everybody was awesome. A definite must play.

Nic'les Long

Beautiful mountain golf right outside of castle rock. Wildlife and pristine course conditions make for a phenomenal round. Don't be upset if you shoot 10 over your handicap these greens are tough.

Kaela Edwards

Beautiful & majestic for a hidden getaway!

Alex Wernimont

Played in early and late may. Super nice conditions. Equal to Keystone and raven golf courses. The staff was friendly and cleaned my club heads and all. They have pagers to remind people of their tee time. Like being in the mountains but still close to Denver. The greens here are very challenging, multi tiered, roll like glass greens. The back nine is very scenic. Would play everyday if I could.

Maximilian Hornauer

Marvelous golf course @ 2200 meters above sea level. You should hit it straight. I'll be back !

Heather Kimler

Nice place

Doug Seaberg

Great layout. Amazing vistas

The Paiks

This is a really nice course that we finally got to play. The reviews make it sound terrific, and in person, it did not disappoint. The course is well designed to give you almost a private feel to each hole. The course plays fairly narrow with trees that line most holes. The greens are fairly quick, especially on the downhill putts. There are a number of fairly blind shots, so having prior knowledge of the course will definitely help. Many will wisely choose non driver on a handful of holes, e.g. #4, #6 the signature hole, #14, & ?#18. Deer, elk, and even bear have known to frequent the property... even adding footprints to some greens. One thing, make sure to have the group ahead of you get to the green on #16 before teeing off, even a middle aged guy can get it to near the lake off the black tees. The food is quite good afterwards. Enjoy!

Andrew Halfman

Bear Dance is the best! Voted Top Denver Golf Course 2017 for good reason. The course is in great shape and the views are unbeatable. The GPS system is on point and the staff is awesome!

Ian Peters

Great golf course, amazing views. Tough though. A little expensive but it's one of the best in the state.

Skyler Reynolds

Good except it was a non smoking course. Which is understandable but still a bummer

Eric Beavers

This is a great course! The views are well worth the drive.

Doug Phelps

Great track, impressive facilities, friendly knowledgeable staff

Debby Pramberg

This place is spectacular absolutely just spectacular the atmosphere the people the customer service it's a hit it's a winner

Fathead Production

Great course but the pro( Cy? ) and the ranger ruined the whole experience. He personally sent a foursome at our tee time because they were playing for money then told us not to hit until those players were off of the green? He then had the ranger follow us to tell us we were behind....I think that would go with out saying when you have to wait to tee off so late. Refused to refund money when we decided to quit early. Won't spend my money there again....esp since the greens at my local club were nicer.

les allen

Beautiful place to play or have lunch

Mike Meyer

Played on Saturday Oct 29th. Course is a beauty but I have to say the greens were incredibly slow, the range is a mess (hitting on mats that are old, hard and not level) and the pace of play was awful. It took us over 5 hours to play 18 holes. Marshaling was a joke. They were out there but doing nothing to keep the pace of play up. Almost 3 hours to play the back 9. I spoke with a marshal and he simply stated, welcome to a Sunday afternoon. What kind of response is that. Do your job and marshal to get the pace of play up. While I enjoyed the views and the company I was with , pace of play has to be addressed and the speed of the greens about a 7 or 8 are simply not worth it. This time of year, this course is not a $90 course.

Martin Cella

My son had his wedding rehearsal brunch at Bear Dance! It was wonderful! Michel and his staff were so accommodating. Food and service was top notch and the price was so reasonable! Scenery was an added benefit. thanks so much! Lisa and Marty Cella

Wyatt James

Nice course, friendly staff

R Fitzgerald

Nice club.

BRAD Little

Sucked

Chris Teem

Beautiful golf course, but definitely not the best one around. Food was good inside. Drinks were strong, however expensive. The bartender was great and took care of us for our drinks and food. The course staff were very attentive as well. I will go back, but more for the dining and not so much the course. Don't get me wrong, it's a nice course. It's just not as nice as some others that are close by.

Black Swan

Came down for a golf tournament with the realm of caring! Beautiful course and really friendly staff. Enjoyed my time here.

Brad Eggspuehler

Beautiful Course! Well worth the drive to Larkspur. If you want to play one of the most challenging courses in the state, look at amazing views and enjoy being treated like a member then go play. If you want to give any out-of-state friends or family a memorable Colorado experience take them to Bear Dance Golf Club.

Richard Cooper

Bear Dance is my favorite golf course in Colorado

Jim Friedlander

Fantastic course, great people

Will Arnold

Beautiful golf course will be coming back again

Liz Shortt

The food is great! I had the kale and beet salad. My husband had the pastrami Reuben. Both were excellent. It's our favorite place to eat in Larkspur.

jean sertich

Bear Dance never disappoints-always fun and always challenging!

Paul Jensen

Beautiful golf course

Eric Bauer

One of the best in Colorado. Course is in near perfect shape...

dj bruner

Great course!

Chris Geiger

One of my favorites. Beautiful Colorado setting. Very challenging. A true Colorado golfing gem ! Enjoy.

Larry Fouts

Great staff, from the head pro to the bag handlers. Cart service is great also. Enjoy the fabulous course conditions with the best front range views in Colorado!!

Rob Martinez

Great conditions and awesome views. Staff is very attentive.

Daniel Whited

Greens are the worst,,, enough said.. Over Priced

Jiewei Cao

Second time there. Beautiful course.

Jeff May

Great golf course and staff.

Bethann Cisneros

Amazing service and amazing views, couldn't ask for more!

Brenna Ashlyn

It has good food, but the people can be kind of judgy here

Jeromy Prosser

Best course I have played to date. Greens were in immaculate condition and the course was beautiful. Everything was as expected from this caliber of course. I will be returning as soon as possible!

Eric Koller

Scenic, challenging course

Steven Lechner

Fantastic

Deanna Castle

Beautiful!

Kevin Bowersox

Course was in excellent condition and very challenging. Greens rolled true and held nicely.

Patrik Mattle

WOW! I played Breckenridge, Keystone, Pole Creek and Raven's, all great mountain courses and this place is up to par with all of those! Perfect conditions, very secluded and you feel like the only group on the course. And all that 30 min. from Denver! Highly recommended, especially at twilight prices.

Ricardo Behrens

Great golf course!

Jay Jackson

What a joke!! $135 round, and we can't have a drink in the bar after the round. They booted 8 of us out, of course right after we settled our course tabs. We asked why, and they said it was the wedding. So clearly, amount of money being spent matters. Really? Great course ruined by crappy customer service!! I called back 20 minutes later, and Michele, the bar manager told us it was because we threw a beer can, and the saw our tab on the course, and needed to cut us off. Wow, how did customer service get even decent rankings prior?

Matthew Harkema

One of the best courses in Colorado

Chris Sallee

Great course

Jesse Huebner

One of the best golf courses in the area. Tee times are spaced appropriately to allow plenty of time for a good pace of play. We were never held up from the front and never rushed from the back. Each hole is well separated from the previous hole and next hole which makes it feel very exclusive and premier.

kim ardito

Great food nice place to just relax

Joe Joe

Good times but I can't hold worth a Shizz.

Bill E

Awesome course friendly staff..great food..good prices..casual

Mike Hester

Awesome club and beautiful course

Dan MacDonald

Best golf along the front range.

Kyle Stark

Awesome course. Love the hills. However, during my weekend of play, it seemed like everyone had the same idea I had. LOL. Pretty crowded. But great course

Robert Green

Beautiful course, tee shot appear challenging but fairways generally open up, greens are like glass and definitely the most challenging part of this course

ONEGREATFIRE

One of the best courses I've played. Great condition, wonderful experience.

Scott Knox

This is an amazing golf course. It has amazing views and a great overall layout. It is pretty long from the tips at 7700 yards, but has lots of options for all players. Make sure to take lots of pictures as there are great views of the mountain range and some picturesque holes like #6. Also, keep your eyes open as wildlife visits are quite frequent at Bear Dance. Everything from Deer and Elk, to Mountain Lion and Bear. So many fun holes at this course for you to enjoy. Definitely recommend playing a round here! Just wait til later in the summer as early spring months can be rougher.

Thomas Chisholm

I love this course. The scenery is unbelievable. It is playable for all skill levels. We come back every year.

Dayle Menges

I love this course! It has become my favorite course in Colorado thus far. My husband and I have played it a few times and it is always in great shape. The people who work it are equally great.

Steve O'Neill

Great golf course and it's in beautiful condition.

rjenkinsgreen

Beautiful course and well kept. Excellent representative for a Colorado golf experience!

Sean Hakes

I FINALLY made it out to Bear Dance a few day ago and I must say, best experience to date. Friendly staff, challenging course and a lot of fun.

Ken Turbull

Wonderful clubhouse for a breakfast meeting.

Michael Leiter

Inadequate parking!!!!!!!!!!

Randall Fitzgerald

Nice place.

James Coleman

Ok

Ron Newsome

Saw Two bears on 7th hole. Loves the course

Mike Johnson

My father, brother and I came here last week on our vacation. We had a great time. The staff was incredibly friendly, the course was in great shape and the views are stunning.

It's Paaat!

Gorgeous course, friendly staff, great beer and food at the clubhouse. Cannot recommend a better time if you want to hit the links.

Jesse Glassman

The back nine is just like Castle Pines Country Club. Totally worth the drive. The reviews about poor treatment is doubtful-- shirts and shoes are required. When you see the scenery and the meticulas grounds, you'll wonder how anyone wouldn't rate this course as a five star.

Bob Larkin

Excellent!

Woke

Nice

Barry Lervik

Over the top service; in a great way!

Sue Beck

Absolutely beautiful, the course was so fun to play!

Matt Cloutier

Course is in good shape for November. It's a tough course, not for the beginner. Great views and nice forest setting.

Bob Castle

Love the course

Karen Mellentine

Gorgeous views....

Tim Schnabel

My favorite golf course I’ve played in all of Colorado!

Robert Rogers

Very friendly staff even with aeration the course played true and the greens were in fine shape. Pace of play was amazing, staff was friendly from bag pick up to the snack bar to the starter. Amazing layout the course offers something for everyone! Will definitely play again and again!

Mile Fenton

Best golf in Colorado

J Dinkel

Great golf course and great service

Kevin Audino

Great course

Darin Senseney

Unfortunately, I cannot say this was the best of experiences! Amazing course with less than sub par customer service! A gem of a course that could use a lesson in custom appreciation.

Adam Reihl

Amazing course

Ekinne Jackson

Big and spacious

Trent Meakins

Great course. Great service

Dustin Jabin

Very nice course has already become one of my favorites after playing just once will be back soon.

Jill Tarver

Scrumptious! I was not disappointed, rather surprised and very much enjoyed our meal.

ava cohen smith

The place was absolutely gorgeous we feel blessed to play there. The staff was very attentive on the course and in the club and yes I'd love to move there.

Alex Mihlstin

Cart path only and this was still one of the most amazing rounds of golf I've ever played. Having played all around the country, this club goes above and beyond. Cart GPS was invaluable. Ordering food from the gps screen. A clock keeps track of pace of play for you. We rented a set of Nike lefty clubs. They were the nicest set of clubs I've ever played with. Went home to get a price on a set for myself and was blown away by a $2200 retail price on everything in that set.

Dave Lorenc

Great time, great course

mike cullen

Course is in great shape. Starter paired us with a fun couple. Great day.
