Hawk’s Eye Golf Resort

Hawk's Eye has been a long time favorite course in the Bellaire/Shanty area. It offers variety, can be challenging, but is also fair and very playable. We've been playing this course for more than 10 years during and it's always been in pristine condition, until this year. We were disappointed in the fairways, and in the greens. Lots of brown patches and dead areas. Which was odd, considering the other Shanty courses we played last weekend were in fantastic shape. Hawk's Eye is still a perennial favorite, so I hope and trust the course returns to it's formerly terrific condition.

Phenomenal design! So many great looking holes with friendly fairways and challenging and well protected greens. Elevation changes on many holes are breath taking. Good test of golf on a beautiful setting!!

I put the course at extremely challenging because I have a hard time hitting a strait tee shot. if you hit the ball ball strait you should score well. Lots of rolling hills and some nice elevation changes with great views of Antrim county

Lots of brown spots and dead grass over the course. One green has sod replaced and it was not careful, leaving small sand bunkers on the green.

Overall, it was a fun course.

I play this course every time I go up north and every time I am amazed at how much I love it. There are a lot of hills and it is challenging. The 17th hole par 5, is one of my favorite holes of all time. It is just a great course.

This course is one of my favorites, because of this scenic views. Sometimes the pace of play can be exceedingly slow due to the challenging course. Today, it took nearly five and one half hours to play because there was a group of 20 golfers in front of us and you had to wait on every hole. The course frequently offers special rates and it's a bargain if you're not in a hurry.

white tees are plenty unless your single digit. great views and excellent condition.

Hawk's Eye is potentially a great course on a fabulous piece of property. Unfortunately, lack of play seems to have severely limited their maintenance budget. I think they do a good job with the resources that they have.
The course takes advantage of the northern Michigan landscape with plenty of doglegs and elevation changes. Landing areas are fair and generous, greens are very large and undulating. I think you will like the course but will feel as I do, that it is a shame they don't have a larger maintenance budget.

Great, hilly course with tons of elevation changes. Greens excellent. Fairways good. Well kept and a hoot to play. Winds throughout woods with great ambiance. Slobs play here & we picked up their beer cans but what can one expect for a resort course in this day and age. We'll definitely go back.

Beautiful course in great condition. Good challenge but very playable. Would love to bring a group out for an outing.

Wide fairways, large rocks in the bunkers some not playable. Greens hard but fair fore the average golfer. Fun to play!

This one one of the most enjoyable courses I've ever played! The course was in great condition, the elevation changes amazing. This course was like a big bag of eye candy! I will play it again:-)

Hawks eye is one of the nicest course I have played, actually the whole Shanty creek area is a great place to get away as a couple or groups, lots of great courses

Very Nice Northern Michigan Couse. Hills, Sand, Water and at 6400 yds from the Whites just the right length. Beautiful sculpted track well manicured. Can't wait to play it again

Tough course, but forgiving... I always love coming home to play it!

Course conditions were terrific. Staff was great. Perfect weather no push & no rush, just steady golf. Course is long from the whites. Still a fun challenge, but tiring. Due to length from the white tees, it required a lot of up and downs to score good.
Who cared about score when the course conditions are great, along with a cool day (65-70 degrees) and sunney, and a great buy from golfnow.
Course is worth the regular rate. Will play every time I come to Northern Mich. Too early in the season for the food and beverage. No beverage cart midweek this early in season. Couldn"t blame them hardly any paly.

The course itself is very well maintained, however
I was a little disappointed in the golf carts. They
where not very smooth and seem to lack the power
to navigate the hilly course. Over all we had a pleasant outing and the staff was friendly and helpful.
Good Time!

Highly recommended, Always a challenge.
Will play again.

tough but fair, great condition, terrific value ,would go back many times, its that type of course

This course is one of the value gems Up North. The course is well taken care of; challenging but playable for high handicappers. Never crowded -- don't know why. Very nice course that I would make my "home course" if just a little closer to - home!
