Perfect shape

The course was in amazing condition. The grass was green and perfect. The greens were amazing with a type of grass not too many courses down here in Florida use. The course is a par 70 and from the Tips it’s only 6200 but it definitely feels like a place longer. I played the greens which are one up from the Tips and it was 5700 yards but it felt like I was playing 6400

A first class facility

Challenging course. Impeccably maintained.. unbelievable diamond zoysia greens. Two island greens. A course you have to manage.

Great staff and training facility. Truly a wonderful day. It’s a Marriott resort course so not cheap. Only suggestion I have is a grill with outdoor seating by the 18th green.

Our first time playing Hawks Landing (tried many times previously without success). Definitely one of the best all round courses in the area though back 9 very challenging. Would thoroughly recommend

Solid course, target golf on some holes, lightning greens

Played here as part of a 6 day, 7 course golf trip. I usually don't play here often due to the cost but we splurged and the guys I played with loved it. The course is interesting as it is not long but requires accuracy and the greens are diabolical in how fast they are. I do appreciate the layout but some holes, like the first par 5, require two short shots before going at the green. Also, the last hole, which is a par 3, is a 200 yard carry to basically an island green that is the number 1 handicap hole. Strange to finish on that. I think flipping the 9s would make more sense. It is a gorgeous course and I definitely would play here again if it was on a discounted rate.

Great Course close to resorts

We had a blast playing this course. The excitement started after we hit the bag drop. Driving to park our rental car a ball came over the clubhouse and landed in the parking lot narrowly missing a couple of cars. The staff was very friendly and check in was a breeze. Hit some balls on the range and headed out. The course conditions were good and the pace of play was great. Overall a very enjoyable experience.

One note - we only saw the beverage cart twice and drinks are expensive.

Not sure if it’s worth the price point

Had a fun round at HLGC, but to be honest, not sure if it’s worth the true price point. Especially after the $60 rental club fee.

Course was in decent shape, dry in certain areas but manageable.

Greens were crazy fast but that really wasn’t a deterrent,

I’ve just seen courses in better condition for a cheaper price point.

poor pace of play

Poor course management, paired me with a 2 some that only played 9 holes. I paid for 18, but as a single playing the back was impossible, no one tried to help me "fit in". Ending up having to just leave. By now the pro shop was closed, I mentioned the issue to a few guys, but they could have cared less. $129 + tax for 9 holes .. pretty steep

Fun Day of Golf

We had a fun day, great weather, nicely kept course, A lot of water and lost balls but still worthwhile. The one negative - there was nothing open at the clubhouse to buy food or beverages. We were provided 2 bottles of water and told the beverage cart would be around. It's too hot and sunny not to provide more hydration. The beverage cart attendant did not seem eager to stop. She by passed us the first round when we asked for ice and told us it was in the cart - which it was but there were no cups, She wasn't going to stop the second and last time on the back 9 until we had to chase her down.
