About

Holes 9
Type Semi-Private
Par 36
Length 3489 yards
Slope N/A
Rating N/A

There are 36 holes of championship golf available at White Hawk Country Club. The club's four nine-hole golf courses are named Grey Hawk, Black Hawk, Red Hawk, and Silver Hawk. The Black and Grey Courses formed the original 18-hole layout when the club first opened in 1996. The Black Hawk nine is the shortest of the four at 3,469 yards from the back tees. It has a more traditional links-style layout that is player friendly enough for beginners but still offers a challenge with strategically placed bunkers and water hazards. The club's signature hole is the par-3 sixth, which is known for its intimidating island green. White Hawk C.C. has been ranked as one of northwest Indiana's best golf courses and it is conveniently located less than an hour south of downtown Chicago.

WhiteHawk

It was a bit wet . 1st hole in silver green was under water and the carts babysit you near tee and greens but guess that’s the new golf technology everyone is using . You have 10 seconds to get back on cart path …..

Don’t Play Silver

They have 4 nines (newest one is Silver). The lady at check in told us we were playing Grey/Silver. And that is what you get for booking on line. When we got to 1st tee the Marshall came up and was friendly. He said we would like the Grey 9. It was his 2nd favorite but nobody likes or plays the silver 9. He was right, we like the Grey 9, but the Silver was so hard it ruined the whole round. You are in the middle of a marsh with nothing around and you are constantly hitting long shots to carry all the reeds. You would need to be a consistently good player to enjoy this 9, and I am just a casual player.

They know how bad it is, they should give players a choice when booking.

White hawks Cart Path Only Day

Great course and friendly environment. Great bar and clubhouse. Only problem was cart path only on this course is brutal . Should realize what holes are just to far away from path and adjust the GPS carts to keep off all par 3’s and some 4’s but some how we’re completely dry to drive on but mile walk from cart path!

Watch out for additional $5 per golfer charged at course on a Hot Deal

Course was in great shape for beginning of November. Pace of play was slow however. Biggest disappointment was the additional $5 per golfer charged at the course when prepaying for a Hot-deal on Golfnow. Makes the Hot-deal Luke-warm. Argued to no avail at the course. Pretty underhanded for Whitehawk to implement the additional charge after you've already prepaid on Golfnow . Is Golfnow even aware of this? Very disappointed!

The golf courses are under no obligation to GolfNow... it's a courtesy which (in some cases) undermines the customer with GolfNow's deceptive and ridiculous pricing. Most courses are quitting GolfNow for that reason...
