The 18-hole Hawk's Landing Golf Club in Orlando, FL is a resort golf course that opened in 1986. Designed by Joe Lee, Hawk's Landing Golf Club was later remodeled by Robert E. Cupp III.

At just over 6600 yards and carrying a slope rating of 134, the Hawk's new layout differs markedly from its predecessor designed by Joe Lee. Water is in play on 15 of its 18 holes and the entire back nine. Consistently recognized for its great greens, Hawk's Landing is conveniently located at exit 67 off Interstate 4. Winding around three sides of Florida's largest resort and convention center, this course offers an exciting 18-hole challenge and a great golf experience.

Meh

Greeted by a friendly pro shop attendant and then the starter, but it basically never really took off from there. Had to warm up in mats. Teed off at 9:30. A group of 3 Foursomes held up the entire course. At one point I counted 5 groups on 2 holes. Literally waited on every shot. Never saw a marshall. No water stations whatsoever.

Course hadn’t been mowed in 2-3 days so fairways were high. Greens were true but very slow. Layout a little weird including a 5-minute meandering path to the 18th signature hole. Unless it’s one of your last choices, I would look elsewhere.

If you like 6 hours rounds and Mickey Mouse designs, this course is for you

Took a little over 4 hours to play 12 holes which is just unbearable - ended up just calling the day - not a fan of this type of design. It’s either ya really like it or ya don’t. I’m in the don’t like faction. Also don’t like spending this kind of money and quitting halfway through due to slow play…along with a course design that’s just not for me.

Fun course in great shape.

The course is roomier than it looks. I steered it around and didn’t need to. The entire place is obviously well maintained. The greens were consistent, medium speed, smooth, with minimum undulations.

Well groomed, but need more tee options

Hawk's Landing is in very nice condition. They had punched the fairways/tees about a week or so ago (there is an aerification alert on GolfNow), but it was completely healed, and everything was lush and green. Greens are beautiful but slower than many courses of the same caliber in this area. Bunkers are all well maintained (and plentiful). The snack bar closed well before I made the turn at 5pm, so don't expect to get any food/drink in the afternoon, although they give you two small bottles of water on ice per cart - nice touch. My biggest complaint about HL is that they don't have enough tee options. There's a nearly 500 yard difference between the back tees and the next ones up and almost 400 yards between the next two. With the proliferation of combo tees, this course definitely could use them, especially given that there are several short holes, which means there are a few that are incredibly long from the back tees.

Nice layout.

I like this course but I think turning the 18th into an island green was a mistake.

I like island greens but I don’t think it should be the last hole of the day.

Great course

Played Hawkes Landing on June 30 and enjoyed it so much. We came back on July 1. The course was an excellent condition. The greens were very good. I would highly recommend this course if you’re in the Orlando area. You will not be disappointed.

What happened to this place in one year?

Played last year, same week, for a birthday event for a golf buddy, always eight of us and we play fast and play all day, even cocktail golf in the evening, so sometimes get 54 in. Last year, had to hit irons only on practice range (why????) but course was immaculate. Greens were fast, fairways plush, lots of water, fun holes and there were amenities - water on holes, trash cans on holes, drinks available from cart girl, window service for bfast and all day - and we had a blast. What a difference a year makes. This year, still had to hit only irons on practice range??, but greens are at least 2 stump meters slower, fairways still plush, t-boxes in bad shape on many holes and the course is still fun but seems to be struggling. BUT, course manager politely told us no water, no trashcans, no ball washers, no cart girl - instead he pointed to the window walkup for anything we wanted before, during, and after our 36 holes in 92 degree Florida sun! What type of Marriott resort can't get a cart girl on a course? What type of resort can't put a water cooler on a hole, or 10 of them during the summer??? We left completely dissatisfied and shocked honestly, and the poor window girl was struggling all day, not to mention they closed the window at 4 pm!!! Won't be going back because you pale in comparison to your competition and we can't take a chance on having to play another full day with the option of passing out by three or four with no supplies in sight. This place needs some management upgrades asap.
