The Hawk Niagara Falls Golf Club - Red Talon
About
The Red Talon Course (formerly known as The Hillside Course) is one of three nine-hole courses at The Hawk Niagara Falls Golf Club. It is similar to the original course at the club, the Blue Niagara, in that water comes into play on four holes. This golf course, however, uses the many lakes scattered throughout its landscape in creative ways to provide a unique set of challenges. There are also strategically placed bunkers bordering the fairways and greens. The golf course starts out with the shortest par-4 at The Hawk Niagara Falls Golf Club but bites back with a tricky par 3. The fourth and fifth holes are built between two lakes, making them particularly scenic but they also demand hitting straight.

Golfer Reviews
Bring your best game
This golf course is the best deal on the Canadian side of Niagara Falls, as far conditions and value for money. It forces you use all your clubs. My advice is to club up. Greens are large and undulating. Make sure to take your time and you read them carefully. Enjoy.
Great for a weekend outing
Very nice facility and great staff. Very nice views and family near to Niagara for your casino needs :-)
One of the best best in Ontario!!
The fairways were in excellent shape, although the greens were recently aerated, were stiff fast and true. The views were breathtakingly beautiful, staff were friendly and courteous. Overall one of the best I've played in 38 yrs. of golfing!! Great job Pen Lakes staff!!
Still one of the Nicest in Niagara Region
I love Penn Lakes!. Not sure how my review will show but I'd give it 4.5 Stars. Points lost in value for money and I don't think they participate in GolfNow. Sorry I just want a better deal. Everything else is perfect. I've never seen the grounds and practice ranage more manicured in Niagara. It extends to the course. Fantastic lay out of all 27 holes. Fairways are like carpets. The course has a feel like you're playing somewhere special. Great greens! Bunkers too. I wouldn't say the course is overly difficult but it's challenging at the same time. Just right actually. There aren't any jaw dropping signature holes that blew me away, but they are all very, very nice. I'll play here as often as I can get a chance. Won't pay more 55 dollars though which I got through some Internet deal from their website. If you get a chance to play this one you won't be disappointed. Long known as one of Niagara's best. Definitely top 5.
One of the best courses in Niagara
Played all 27 holes on Thursday and the course is in excellent condition. Staff were very friendly and helpful from booking our tee time to getting us started. Marshals were around to check on us a couple of times and actually helped us find a wayward ball on one hole. Starter had a great sense of humor and gave us a few pointers on some holes before we started. The course itself was fantastic with some risk / reward holes and a great mix of par 3, 4 and 5 holes. Great value for the dollar as well. Tee off before 9:30 during the week and play 18 with a cart for only $55 and if you want to play the other 9 after that it is only an extra $20 with cart. Would definitely recommend this course to anyone no matter what skill level.
Best places
This is one of the best places to play in S. Ontario, we have been going here for over 20 years. The greens are top rate and the whole course is in tip top shape. They have a gift card sale every year and it is one of the few things we make sure we do. I am already looking forward to going this year as soon as the weather warms up.
