About

Holes 9
Type Semi-Private
Par 36
Length 3515 yards
Slope N/A
Rating N/A

Located just an hour south of Chicago, White Hawk Country Club is northwest Indiana’s premiere golf destination. It’s ranked as one of the top 10 toughest golf courses in Indiana. The 36-hole golf course consists of four nines called Red Hawk, Grey Hawk, Black Hawk, and Silver Hawk, which are rotated daily to give players a unique round every day. The Red Hawk nine measures 3,515 yards from the back tees. It’s not the longest nine but there are still some holes that long hitters will enjoy. Strategically placed bunkers and water hazards also come into play. The golf course will reward thoughtful strategy but it’s not overly punishing for the high handicapper. In addition to the 36 holes, White Hawk C.C. also offers one of the area’s most extensive practice facilities, which includes a driving range with tightly bunkered target greens and a short game area with a sand bunker.

Traveling home course

I was traveling and found this course, made a tee time with a great rate (Golf Pass), I played the Grey and Silver courses and enjoyed the challenge. Good thing I was paired with a local to guide me around thru the blind shots. I will definitely be back to play next time I'm in the area. Hopefully I'll get to try the other courses or all 4 in a day would be great.

Great course

Well maintained and I expected it to be pretty full but it wasn’t. Made for a great pace. Our 3-some finished in 3:20. WH is always in great shape. Reasonable rates.

Bring sunscreen and great strategy

Played the Black the Silver combo on a humid partly sunny day. The UVs were for real so prepare accordingly. There were at least 4 extremely challenging holes that must be thought through carefully ( unless you have an endless supply of balls and patience of a saint). Pace was good ahead of us , but experience a few shadow plyers pressing us from behind. It was still a great day!

Challenging but enjoyable

We played the Black and Silver courses. Black was challenging but if you made good golf shots, you could score well. The Silver course was exceptionally challenging, especially for first time playing it. Most of the hole contain marshy areas you have to hit over either off the tee or your approach shot, sometimes both. Having experience may make the course easier.

If you book through golf now you will end up on silver

They have 36 holes. It was a 27 and eventually they added the silver and 9 more. I have played out there 3 times and each time I got the same Red to Silver. You cannot get in the other two with the island green. Just know that when you book.
