    The Bear Mountain Valley Golf Course opened in June 2009 and combined with it’s sibling Mountain Course, positions Bear Mountain Resort as the only 36 holes of Nicklaus Design golf in Canada, and one of the finest golf offerings in North America.

    The Valley Golf Course meanders through forests, borders lakes, and traverses creeks throughout its 18 holes while offering spectacular views of British Columbia’s beautiful landscape.

    The par 71 Valley Course measures 6807 yards from the Golden Bear tees – about 400 yards shorter than its sibling, the Mountain Course.

    Factor in elevated tee boxes, more generous fairway widths, fewer bunkers and larger greens and the Valley Course will likely be considered a ‘friendlier’ version of the original Mountain Course. Rolling through terrain at elevations of between 300 and 500 feet above sea level, there is still plenty of challenge, and many holes that could be considered the signature hole.

    This (Bear Mountain Resort – Mountain Course, on the Vancouver Island Golf Trail) is my new favourite golf course – I just love the layout. It’s really one of the prettiest golf courses I’ve played in my life, I’ll come back here on vacation, it’s that good.

    I always treat golf courses as how many poor holes there are. This (Bear Mountain Resort – Mountain Course, on the Vancouver Island Golf Trail) is a very good one. There’s not one poor hole on this golf course.

    Colin Montgomerie, PGA TOUR Champion

    Great job on the initial booking and subsequent changes requested. Easy check-in at the golf courses and the hotel made the trip hassle-free. Nice touch with the driving directions and discounts at recommended food and beverage establishments. Will definitely recommend your service to friends and business associates.
