Bear Trap Dunes Golf Club offers one of the area's most unique and memorable golf experiences on the Eastern Shore and is located in Ocean View, Delaware, just 3 miles west of Bethany Beach. Winding bentgrass fairways are lined with native wetland grasses that drift into stunning sand dunes on this natural golf course. Impeccably groomed oversized greens and four strategically placed sets of tees beckon golfers of every skill level. After just a few minutes at this facility, you will see why these 27 holes of scenic beauty are the locals' favorite.

A former associate of Jack Nicholas, course architect Rick Jacobson has won acclaim for his course designs. In Rick’s own words, “Bear Trap Dunes is visually unique because of its ample use of sand dunes – adhering to the coastal area’s natural terrain. Because of strategically placed dunes, grassy hollows, bunkers and water hazards, players will have to ‘think’ their way through each hole."

Played there this past week. Honestly everything was great, Id give it 5 stars, except there was a member or an employee in their parking lot who was extremely rude. Berating us about driving the golf cart in the parking lot. (If this was rule we didnt know that as there was no sign, and its a reasonable mistake to make on a golf course) The guy wouldn't let it go and kept cursing at us about it. Told one of the employees there but I don't think anything was done about it. Like I said...it was a good time besides that, but that alone is enough to ruin the experience.

Golf courses are well maintained and very nice. I recommend this course knowing there are plenty to choose from in the area.

Nice golf complex. Can't wait to go back.

Yesterday I had lunch at Bear Trap Dunes Coastal Restaurant and a woman in my group encountered a life threatening medical situation. Mary Lou and Bill could not have been more accommodating and helpful. They responded immediately by calling 911 and were instrumental in coordinating the chain of events as they unfolded. They did it effortlessly. Mary Lou and Bill were incredibly empathetic, professional, and kind. Thank you for generosity!
