    When you stumble on a place after looking for something and it feels like kismet...that is what Grand Bear Golf Club is to us. My husband (fiancé back in January 2020) and I were looking for trails to ride ATVs. Traveling on the winding, 6 mile stretch reminded me of "The Dragon" in Deals Gap, NC and Lombard St in San Fran. The incredible part was when this road opened up to this specular space, a rustic log cabin and manicured greens. Of course, we wanted to see more and, as perfect timing would have it, Mr. Brad Kale was there and welcomed us in without hesitation. The immediate smell of the logs assured us this place was special. It was so special that we asked Brad if he'd host our wedding. We were elated when he said, "Yes! We've never hosted a wedding before. So, yours will be the first." KISMET Unfortunately, COVID-19 had other plans and the venue had to be closed three days before our wedding. Talk about devastated! Regardless, we pressed on and tied the knot in our back yard. The Grand Bear Golf Club remained a special place in my heart. So much so, that I came up with the idea to surprise my husband with dinner there for our one year anniversary. So, I stopped by, reconnected with Brad and was introduced to Mr. Allan Martel. They agreed and my idea came to fruition. Alan set a private table for us by the big bay window. Chef Arnold hit the nail on the head with the meal request. We laughed as we realized we had to eat slower to savior the gourmet burgers, but they were too juicy to do so. Ms. Paige provided such personable service,and was a wonderful host, too! They executed everything I asked for. John was surprised and we couldn't be more pleased. I cannot thank you enough, Brad , Allan, Chef Arnold & Paige. The Grand Bear Golf Club will always have a special place in our heart.

    Menu at the turn.

    Well, this is a review from someone (9 handicap that used to be a 1 handicap) that bought their Winter membership, and I've played there about 9 times now. I'll start by saying that it is a solid, challenging, golf course that is well designed with no slouch holes. Seriously, it's a good course. It's as long as you could possibly want. I play the golden tees and almost no one plays those with me and there's still the grizzly tees behind that. The greens are usually just true as can be. Here are a couple of the catches to help you navigate - you can run into some pretty obnoxious casino guests that can ruin your day. I played the other day, and if I hadn't just been able to give the pro a nod and grab a bucket of balls for myself I would've been at the cashier for 30 minutes while a group of 16 checked in and I think everyone needed rental sticks, then balls, then naked lady tees... you get the picture. I get this suspicion that the casino would much rather people be at the tables than the golf course. It's kind of like a movie set sometimes - the facade is there, but when you peek behind the curtain, the people running it, while highly qualified, just feel understaffed. Good luck getting a marshall to keep play moving - there isn't one (although I hear they will send out someone if you call, but what're they gonna do when they've got 8 groups in a row playing 5 hour paces?). One day I had a tee time for two and I was on the tee and the starter asked us to step aside for a threesome that "plays fast" to go ahead of us. I play fast, and we were a twosome, only to just sit there behind them because the course was backed up all day. I've never, ever been pulled off a tee like that and it just kinda ruined the day. Oh, the one thing course related, the bunkers couldn't be more inconsistent. Sometimes they're hard, sometimes they're 6 inches deep. I hear they might spend $300k on a bunker upgrade, but we'll have to wait and see. Enough with the complaining - two of my favorite gems I've found here are Theresa, the red haired bartender/cart girl if they're busy, and my man Arnold running the grill. If it's morning you have got to try the grilled ham, egg, and cheese, and if it's lunch get the grilled ham and cheese - they are really stellar. If Arnold has his collared greens made, get em. Now, with the movie set theme, just know that it might be 3:30 and the grill is closed - so if you are looking for an after round meal...

    Deep on the forest you find a gem.

    Oh and if you've got the time, or staying in a nearby hotel for another round the following day, you've got to hang out in their bar, restaurant area.

    Great view! I had the gumbo and po'boy catfish and loved it…read more The establishment has seating inside, on the balcony and semi outside with the possibility to open the garage doors when the weather allows it. Service is fast, friendly and attentive. It is place to go with a few or a larger group. you have to walk a couple of stairs, but you can also choose the elevator.

    Update on spoiled flounder, I got terribly sick yesterday starting couple hours after eating and I…read moream back being sick again this morning the next day. it's terrible! I've had to cancel my day. Fish was swimming in a greasy sea. I was told it was seasoning. It was gross but I didn't have to eat that part so I didn't. The waitress assured me that the Black degraded slime sludge at the head was perfectly normal because of the location on fish. When I was finally able to get online with the password AI told me the fish and the slimy black guck was unsafe to eat and to discard it. I've never eaten flounder before, what do I know? I really felt deceived by the waitress as she completely changed her opinion after a second confrontation after a little online research. AI said: "That texture typically comes from: * Bacterial growth (biofilm formation) * Protein breakdown as the fish degrades * Time/temperature abuse (sat out, reheated, or not stored properly)" Beyond disappointing. I'll never forget this the illness that occurred while I was trying to shop in a store. Horrable!. My partner said we will never return!

We ordered Shrimp smackers and Cheese Bombs for appetizers. Both very good! I ordered the Seafood Nachos. Our server recommended to have the tortilla chips on a separate plate so if you take it home they will not be soggy. Smart lady because the order is large. The Nachos came with a sweet chili sauce on top. It was great at first then it became too much. I would have it on the side or order without it next time. My husband ordered the three shrimp tacos with string fries. They were so good! If you have never been here I would highly recommend it. You are missing out.
