The Links at Hiawatha Landing
Rating Snapshot
About
The Links at Hiawatha Landing sits along the banks of the Susquehanna River, nestled between the Finger Lakes and the Catskill Mountains. It's one of New York's premier upscale public golf courses. Despite the name, the course has more of a heathland layout than a true links course since it lacks the seaside location that is the cornerstone of traditional Scottish links golf courses. The design still has many links features though including windswept sand bunkers. The rolling terrain provides a variety of elevation changes that range from subtle to dramatic and the tall grasses make accuracy a necessity. Water comes into play on seven holes but there aren't any forced carries or blind shots, making the golf course approachable for even high handicappers. The Links at Hiawatha Landing finishes with a challenging par 5 that doglegs left around a large pond.

Difficult course, very well kept.
Definitely a difficult course for a beginner golfer, lots of hazards but it’s very well kept and great views as well.
Love to play again
Me and my boys were traveling up to Ithaca and found the course on our way. Reviews looked good. Seemed like best in the area that was available. Poured as we were getting to the course. Was a 20 minute delay from the rain but the course drained well. Was very impressed with the greens, lay out was nice. Coming from North Jersey, the value for the price is unbelievable. I’d make it a regular place to play if i lived in the area.
Early spring
Course was in great condition, especially for late March in NY.
Fall golf
Played on a beautiful fall day and the coarse was awesome. My favorite time of the year. Not many leaves to worry about with the staff clearing the affected areas. Wish it could last another week
Layout is Great
This course has great potential and more than likely its downfall was my timing. Greens were punched, but not dressed making putting impossible. There were several tee boxes under construction, but that didn’t alter play much.
I think this course would be excellent in July and August. All in all I really enjoyed this course and felt that if the practice greens were any indication of what the greens would normally be like, it would be a phenomenal course. The Staff was extremely friendly!
Fall Play
Usually a $75 charge to play here. With the app it was $45/pp - extreme bargain. Leaves all over the place including tee boxes (I get it, it's Fall) however, someone literally could have went around and blown the leaves off the tee boxes to either side and it would have been fine. That person that was on an extremely loud lawnmower and stood there in neutral while we tee'd off, could have done that. It was an okay round. Will probably only play here again if there's another sale.
A great test
Many different type of shots and decisions to be made On this tough but fun track
