The Bear's Club
The Bear's Club is a private golf club in Jupiter, founded in 1999 by Jack and Barbara Nicklaus. Its course is the centerpiece of a private planned community. The property covers about 370 acres of sandy, wooded ground roughly a mile from the Atlantic, and the club presents it as the Nicklaus family's home away from home.
Jack Nicklaus designed the course and left the native brush in place where the design allowed. The holes pass oaks, pines, palmettos, cypress and wetlands, on a site crossed by a sand ridge about 12 feet high. The 18-hole layout plays to 7,164 yards, has 354 bunkers and includes a group of par-5 holes, among them the home hole, where a lake guards the green. A separate nine-hole par-3 course gives a shorter option.
The clubhouse was completed in January 2002 and has about 40,700 square feet. Its design draws on an old European village, with a limestone facade, a barrel tile roof and cherry wood trim, paneling and beams inside. It has casual, formal and private dining areas and six locker rooms. Members and their guests can use four suites in the clubhouse, and beside it are three cottages owned by members, one of which the club currently offers for short stays.
The Bear's Club is a non-equity private club, and membership inquiries go directly to the club. Aquantis Realty can show available homes within the club, help you plan the membership inquiry alongside a purchase, and represent you through contract, inspection and closing. Listings on this page update from the MLS as homes come to market.
