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!
The Hawks Eye Is Second To None
When most area courses are opening up at full summer prices, Hawks Eye golf course continues to remember that golf is for everyone and offers great spring and fall rates that allow the average person to experience one of the best courses in northern michigan. We drove 35 miles to get to this course and its worth every mile. Will golf again. Check out their 2 for 1 wednesday specials at Hawks Eye Golf course. Thanks again Hawks Eye
Great course
Beautiful course. Well maintained. Scenic. Played this course a few times before and always enjoyable. This time, however, back nine was brutally slow. Ranger went out two or three times, but no avail. 3 hr back nine. Nice elevation changes.
Course was wet due to much recent rains. Scenic value of the course is great.
Stuck behind 2 sets of foursomes who did not play ready golf and were hitting from the wrong tees for their capabilities.
Greens were aerated last week!!
I have played Hawkseye each year since it opened. Now I've had two very bad experiences in a row at this place. Called course to book and absolutely no mention from them that greens had been aerated just two days before......BIG MISTAKE (no other courses in Traverse/Bellaire/Charleviox/Kalkaska area had been aerated except the Chief and I did find out Chief was aerated before even considering to play it the next day). It will now take much cajoling from my golfing partners to ever consider playing this course again. Course from tee to green was playable and in average shape but the greens weren't even close to being playable.....and that's half the game. Also appeared that a ladies league were put ahead of us teeing off on the 10th to play nine (we caught up to them on the 11th) so the pace on the back nine was extremely slow on a Thursday afternoon well after Labor Day. Ridiculous.
We love this course.
We played this course on a beautiful cool day in Sept. They were aerating the front nine, so we had to do the back nine twice. It was no problem and actually quite enjoyable. The bag boy and the starter/manager were both so pleasant and helpful. They made our visit to this course a great experience. We can't wait to golf this course again. I can't think of anything we disliked about it.
Spectacular Layout
Course was in good condition although detailed trimming around tees and greens was somewhat lacking.
Nice course
Very nice course that was in excellent condition. Pace of play was also excellent
very very nice to play
did not play this course last year but got the chance this year and booked it.
beautiful course, great shape
This is a must play beautiful Northern Michigan golf course with breath taking views provided by multiple elevation changes.
Enjoyed the layout and views on the golf course very much.
We played after a heavy rain, but the course handled the water very well. The greens took quite a beating and were slow due to their soggy condition, but were true. Pace of play was a little slow due to a scramble outing, but once that was completed, we moved at a nice pace. We learned a lot about shot placement and look forward to playing this course again. The rough on the back nine was a little too long for my liking and there were a few spots that got burned from fertilizer applications. Staff were friendly and accommodating. It was a very enjoyable and challenging round of golf, especially for the price.
Fabulous course
Best course my husband and I have played in a long time. Good value through Golf Now. Course is beautiful and in pristine condition.
Great
Great, beautiful course. Friendly staff. Fast greens
fairways and greens
enjoyed playing this course and looking forward to playing it again
Beautiful Layout, well maintained, friendly staff.
Beautiful golf course layout and condition with generous fairways and greens. Near Shanty Creek Resort.
Looking forward to playing this course again
Really enjoyed playing this course. Challenging, yet not too difficult. The course layout was very scenic in a wooded area with just enough bunkers and water to make you place your shots. I look forward to playing this course again.
Great value through use of Golf Now. I felt like I was playing a great, top condition golf course for a bargain price!
Hawk's Eye GC is in great condition from tee boxes, to fairways, to greens. Only complaint would be that some holes need to provide first time golfers with info about blind shots or where they can drive through the fairway. Another issue is needing an additional club or two when going uphill. But various holes offer challenge and interesting layouts.
Fun, Fun, Fun
awesome course, great layout, fantastic price, what more can you ask for?
The course is very challenging due to all of the undulation and high rough.
The course was very scenic and undulating. It seemed like we were always hitting to uphill greens. When we didn't keep the ball on the fairways, we were heavily penalized with extra shots due to the exceptionally high rough. We forgot to ask if that's typical during the entire season. If you're not hitting the ball straight, your round will be very frustrating and your score will surely be higher than normal. If the rough isn't always that high, we would play here again.
Love this course
This is my favorite Michigan course. I play it every year. A challenging course that is still woman friendly.
