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.

Return to hawked landing after covid

Having played,and enjoyed the course over the years,I was very disappointed with both course and amenities

They layout has changed and several holes which had make the course really good we’re either gone and replaced , altered

Being Very expensive I didn’t expect greens to have little tufts and fairways were patchy and bare in places

Finally

Except for a small free bottle of water, we had to pay $3 for any extra water

A slow 5 hours and a poor experience as staff seemed uninterested in us

Challenging but 2 bad holes

For the most part we enjoyed the golf course. My wife loved it with the ladies tees being very short. She had some trouble navigating around and over some the water hazards. For myself I thought the course was very challenging but came away disliking the course because of two poorly designed holes. 2 was a goofy double dog leg par 5 with a very difficult 2nd shot over water to a crowned fairway with water on both sides. 18 is an island green par 3 and for the length of the hole (I played from 165) The green is unfairly contoured giving a very small safe landing area that even the best golfers would have trouble hitting. Wouldn’t play the course again just because of 18.

Tricked up

The course is a little tricked up with its layout with lots of water hazards to contend with. They had a 90 minute frost delay but managed to get us off only 30 minutes late to our 12:15 tee time. That was the good news. The bad news is that they had no rangers on the course and it was a plus 5 hour round. Do not like the changes they made to 10 and 18. Made it a par 34 on the back. Probably not go back.

Cluster golf!

We were 45 minutes late teeing off. Staff said it was due to a frost delay but talking to other players who were doing a double loop said that they went off at 8 AM with no delay. Not sure what to believe.

We had to quit after 14 because we were so late starting, we were at risk of being late for our dinner reservation.

The course conditions were worse than a muni course but cost premium $. Never again.

Marriott should be embarrassed.

Thank you for joining us and passing along your feedback.

I can confirm on your date of play, we had a 1 hour and 40 minute frost delay with our first group teeing off at 8:40am. Our team was able to catch up some throughout the day but was behind when your reservation was scheduled.

I also apologize if you felt that our course conditions did not meet your expectations. If you feel to elaborate more, please call our golf shop at 407-238-8961 ext. 3.

Thank you again for taking the time to pass along your experience with us.

Jan golf

Tight, target golf with fairly poor conditions. Excellent staff and amenities. Have a foreign grass growing into greens. Some bunkers with thin sand with liner 1/2 inch below sand. I would avoid. Falcons fire is much better design (Rees Jones) but also fairly rough conditions with deferred maintenance.

It's fine, but very short and chopped up from hotel

Not terrible, but it seems like a lot of holes were worked around hotel expansion. Plays very short.

Nice conditions. Near highway detracts from experience

, very playable and nice shape. Really friendly staff. Not a fan of the surrounding area or overall course beauty. Played at twin rivers - much less expensive and much, much more beautiful

Not bad but not great

Played this course a few years ago and it was in better shape then. Most traps were beat up, a few muddy tee boxes but good greens. Some holes are in much better condition then others so it’s a little odd.

Can’t miss here

Great staff, great conditions, great course. My only complaint is the redone 18th hole. The island green is beautiful and brutal at the same time. Great finishing hole. But extremely difficult to hit and hold. I hit 8 iron from 165 landed middle of the green, appeared to check and just continued rolling right and fell into the water. Not the first time a ball has landed near the middle and spun/rolled into the water. Probably need to soften up that green. Other than that the place is great!

Enjoyable

It is a resort golf course with a fair lay out. The grass on the fairways is a bit thin. The best finishing hole is the new #18 a copy of the TPC. FUN ISLAND PAR 3

Where the club selection is key.

Staff very friendly. I would recommend and play again.

Low handicap from Michigan

I expected much better based on reviews and price. Kinda of a silly layout in spots. Not in the best of shape overall. Play was slow. If you are going to spend between $75 and $100 for a round I'd pass on this one.
