Golden Hawk Golf Club
About
Golden Hawk Golf Club is an 18-hole course in Casco Township, which is just south of Richmond. You won't find too many elevation changes throughout the course but you will encounter plenty of water. There are also 36 bunkers coming into play on 12 holes. The course isn't particularly long at 6,117 yards from the back tees, but the par 4s offers some good length and the ample room off the fairways gives the course a spacious feel. The fairways are generous and quite forgiving, but golfers will face tough approaches to the greens, which are often nestled into the woods or bordered by ponds. The slightly elevated, undulating putting surfaces require accuracy. Golden Hawk Golf Club is a fair test but it's player friendly enough for high handicappers to approach with confidence.

Hot Deal Twosome
Got a Hot Deal for $28 a person on a Friday Morning. Was busier than expected but moved along fine. Played my best round of the year so far.. I am a lefty and this course seems to set up great for me. Hadn’t played here much but will be back more often..
Please ball cleaners are bone dry??? No towels
Course was great needs water tho, greens are way better!! Better roll, more true! Please put water in ball cleaners with drying rags.
Golden hawk
Course needs to be watered properly making all this money Course packed but won't spend money to water a good Course
Pass on Golden Hawk
I am a current member at Golden Hawk and The Myth. I predominantly golf at The Myth and use Golden Hawk sparingly because of the distance (60 miles round trip). On 6/24/22, I had a 6:00 am tee time. Yet, the golf course was not open to accommodate my tee time. I texted and emailed Monique Lynch, the General Manager, at Golden Hawk for a round of golf for a guest because of my inconvenience, but both went unanswered. I further had to call Ms. Lynch who was short and curt on the phone and did not think my wasted time and expense warranted any further discussion. In fact, I have had prior discussions with Ms. Lynch, who previously said that “they NEVER miss a tee time” which obviously is not the case.
What makes this so infuriating is that as a customer I can understand that these things happen. Missing my tee time isn’t the end of the world. Yet, what matters is how, as the General Manager, you respond to it to make your customers whole. As an example, Debbie Lico is the General Manager at The Myth and my experience with her has been the exact opposite. Debbie introduced herself the first day I was a member, listened to my feedback regarding online reservations and has been extremely communicative with her emails and calls. Further, from her staff at the front desk (Brendan, Tom) to the grounds keepers (Donovan, Leigh Ann), my membership at The Myth has been much more enjoyable than Golden Hawk.
Granted, I have received very positive experiences with the Ranger and Staff on site at Golden Hawk, Yet, with Ms. Lynch as the General Manager I know that as one who spent $1,350 on a golf membership, I will look elsewhere next year instead of Golden Hawk and I suggest you do the same as there are so many better choices to spend your money especially here in Michigan.
We’re sorry to hear of your less-than-satisfactory experience and hope you will accept our sincerest apologies.
We value our customers' opinions and would like to make things right and determine how we can provide a solution that makes you smile.
Please contact us directly at the pro shop. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

Very Nice Course
Overall the course was very nice! Lots of trees, some water to deal with, and quite challenging in general. Pace of play was very, very slow, but not sure if this is normal or just based on the day I went. Would recommend!
Great experience golfing today
I golfed here 10 plus years ago and today was the first time back. They have done amazing things with the course. The course was well maintained, friendly service, good food. I will be back.
