Beautiful and challenging, this 18-hole Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course navigates through natural cypress wetlands and towering pines, with packed pine needle rough, championship greens, and deep bunkers set over 650 acres of rolling land in the piney woods of the DeSoto National Forest.
The course is bordered by two rivers, featuring pristine white sandy beaches and Mississippi wetlands, including Pine Savannah, Wet Pine Flatwood and Bottom Land Hardwood.
Grand Bear has hosted Shell's Wonderful World of Golf (2000), featuring a match between Jesper Parnevik and Paul Azinger. John Daly's Make a Wish Tournament also was held here in 2004.
Grand Bear spans 1,746 total acres and offers five different tee levels of play. Facilities include a 400-yard driving range, putting green, and chipping area. Guests will also enjoy our beautiful 5,000-square-foot clubhouse with pro shop and restaurant, and a 6.5 acre man-made stocked lake.
