Bear Lake Golf Course — Local services in Laketown

Every year for the last 6 years, I have played this course as part of a golf trip with some friends. We love this place!!!

The course is so fun to play. The layout is interesting with several challenging dogleg holes and slope changes that make it moderate difficulty. The scenery is amazing with beautiful Bear Lake as the backdrop. The course is typically well kept and is well above average for similar mountain/rural courses in Utah. The management is terrific. They are very friendly and make you feel like family.

Each year when we come up in the fall we play the course for several days usually getting in 72 holes over 3 days playing the same 9 over and over. It is a blast. We are excited that there are plans to built another 9 holes to expand it to 18.

If you take the time to come play this course you will fall in love with it too.

Note: I was looking at some of the other reviews. Some have commented on the rough shape of the course. We just played this weekend and it is in good shape. See the pictures. In talking with the management it sounds like they had some challenges this spring but they have done a great job recovering from that. It isn’t perfect but again, for a mountain/rural course it is well above average.

This is a family friendly course. You will often see golfers on this course of all ages. As a result, sometimes it does get backed up. If you are a golfer in a hurry then maybe this course isn’t for you. It definitely has a calmer and slower feel. With that said, most of the time we are able to play nine in...

The employees that work there are terrible. I was up there one weekend for a family trip (6 people). We know that 6 people is more then what they allow but we booked 2 tee times and asked in advanced if we could play together since we were going to play a 2v2v2 scramble. They said yes to us playing together. Before we could finish the first hole (we were tracking to finish 12 minutes on hole) we got approached by someone who was on a mower and he was so rude to us it took us off guard. He immediately was yelling at us saying how we were stupid for even thinking playing 6 people was ok. He said "no golf course would ever approve Sixsome.". After we tried to explain that the clubhouse ok'd it he still was continuing to be extremely rude and unprofessional towards us. He didn't let 2 of us finish the hole and made 2 of our group go to hole 2. The house we were staying at was on the golf course so we had a really good view of the course all weekend. THERE WERE MULTIPLE groups ALL weekend long that were more then Foursomes (Biggest group we saw was SEVEN). For some reason we were specifically targeted and not allowed to play with our group when they allowed it all weekend. Unbelievable how rude...

Really solid place to play minus the girls lemonade stand on hole 5. She is going to get someone seriously hurt one day. You she has a stand 15 feet to the right of the fairway (on their property albeit), but you can’t see it from the tee boxes because it’s occluded by trees. So you if you are 15 feet off the fairway with your driver this teeanager is eating a ball to the face from a driver which is 100 mph, and you can’t even see them to yell four if you haven’t played the course before you have 0 idea someone is at risk.

Even worse we saw the previous group down By the tee box 363 yards from the white tees. Our first person tees off. As the second person is hitting and there ball is in the air heading down the middle of the fairway a cart comes out of nowhere from this lemonade stand we didn’t know about darting across the fairway and the ball goes right over it as we yell four.

Definitely scared both groups.

I feel like this is just an accidental waiting to happen really bad spot because you can’t see it from the tee box but you can definitely hit it from the white or blue tees.

Other than that well...
