Bears Best Atlanta

Have had the chance to play this course a few times, and have enjoyed it more and more each time.
While the course isn’t very long from the tees, & the greens are typically rolling fairly quick. Your approach shot is key to scoring on this course.
The course has been in great shape each time I’ve played it, and the pace of play has never been an issue.
Only reason I didn’t give this place 5 Stars is due to the price — $ 100 plus on the weekends during peak season.

I visited Bears Best for a wedding. The best part of the wedding were the pictures of the bridal party taken in front of the golf course. The part of the course I saw is beautiful and even though I don’t play golf, it looks like a great course to play on.
The wedding itself was lovely, as weddings are. As for the facilities, it was a bit like having your wedding in a conference room. It was nice enough but there is only so much white bunting can do. The food was okay — chicken with a weird outer later (soft but not in a skin-​on way), beef with an au jus, flavored rice (not a pilaf or something else identifiable), and roasted vegetables. I would have rather had mashed potatoes and Swedish meatballs. : — l
The cash bar was basic and expensive. Twelve dollars for a Grey Goose cocktail. I dunno about that, son. It wasn’t made by a Midtown mixologist either.
The best thing about the wedding facilities was the staff. What a great group of young people. Super friendly and helpful when I asked about the bathroom, the Wi-​fi code and the possibility of turning down the air-​conditioning.
Overall, I would say that Bears Best is better suited for a business conference than a wedding, but they did a decent job all the same.

An easy course that is usually well maintained but a bit overpriced for the area.
The pro shop staff are friendly and helpful. Playing later in the day shows the signs of those who went before as the bunkers are not raked, ball marks on the green not fixed. They also offer a Player Development Program for $ 700 per year that includes unlimited practice range use, a couple of group lessons per month and one round of golf (Mon. — Thur.) per month.
I showed up for two of the scheduled group lessons and they were both cancelled because not enough people were there. Probably best to skip this program and just pay per round and buy individual lessons if you want.

Played here on a company tournament on a picture perfect early spring day. Sunny skies and 70 degrees all day!
They call it Bears Best because it features the best holes designed by golf legend Jack Nicklaus. Course conditions are great. Well marked holes, tee boxes are clean and level, fairways are green and kept, greens are smooth putting, traps with fluffy sand, cart path is smooth, grounds are pretty. Service is awesome from check in to starter to marshalls. they will keep you moving thru the course in good pace.
Its gonna cost a pretty penny to play 18 here but very worth it.
I would play more often if not for the long drive to this place. If you already live up north on 85, this is a great place to play.

I played here on a golf trip w some friends. The course was in pretty good condition but the greens were not in excellent shape. The staff greeted us at our car and cleaned our clubs after the round. I’d play there again if I’m in ATL.
