Northern Michigan Gem
Very nice layout in good condition. Tee boxes and fairways close to perfect. Adding divot mix to the carts would be a good idea. Greens cut but not fast. Bunkers and areas around them need some work. Pro Shop poorly stocked but that could be due recent sale.
FYI no liquor sales yet due to recent sale of the course, awaiting transfer to new ownership.
Last thing was that I called to use my First Tee of Michigan discount and was told they were not partnering up players due to Covid yet I was allowed to book a single with an existing twosome on Golfnow.
Favorite
My absolute favorite up north course!!
Not What We Expected
(Played on 6-12-20)... We prepaid for all 16 of our guys rounds via phone about a week before our tee times. We showed up around 20 min before our tee time and there was nobody there to greet us when we arrived. Our tee times were from 3:40-4:10pm on a beautiful Friday afternoon and we never saw one attendant from the course. We have played this course several times over the last 10 years and this was also by far the worst condition the course was in compared to all the other Shanty courses (Cedar River (the best one) and the Chief) in the area we played the same weekend. The greens were fuzzy and not fast like they usually are and the tee boxes and fairways were also unusually long. The fairways were also somewhat brown in spots which we have never seen before and the was not manicured how it typically is. Definitely an very underwhelming experience for usually such a fantastic course and layout.
Nice Vacation Round
Played on a Monday. Friendly staff, nice layout, not crowded at all mid-day. Fairly long (Senior gold tees were 5600 yds). Red tees shorter. Would not hesitate playing there again.

Gorgeous Course!
My husband and I absolutely loved this course! Stunning views, great elevation, excellent greens! We have played several courses in the area and Hawk’s Eye is one of favorites, if not our favorite. Play here!

Will be back
I made a good choice with this course. I loved the layout and the elevation changes. Beautiful course. Can't think of a negative so good in my books. It was a very cool with some rain at the end of the round but had the course to myself pretty much. It was a cold Tuesday midday tee time and I got there early and they let me go off alone.

Your feedback is important to us, Tsizzle. Thank you for sharing your 5-star experience. We look forward to seeing you again at the course soon! Thanks for choosing Hawk's Eye Golf Resort.
Gem in the Woods
This is a beautiful championship style course located just outside of Shanty Creek resort. If you visit the area, you won’t find a better course for the money. The course is challenging without being unfair. Along with many of the other courses in the area, the scenery alone is worth the price of the round. You won’t be disappointed with your day here.

Wow, we are so happy you enjoyed your round, u380323530! We look forward to seeing you again soon.

pretty simple course to work on your game
not a course you would go to play if you are looking for 4 star.
It is good for working on your game.. they are very friendly here
Greens were crazy slow but it had rained the night before so that may have contributed to it.

Hi rlamirand! Thank you so much for leaving us with your feedback. We value our customer experience, so your review is important to us. We will make note and we hope to see you back!
Well Run Operation

Hawk's Eye
Always a pleasure to play. Great design, conditions and pace of play. No issues at all. Just wish the pro shop had better deals and a little more selection. No deals even on hats. Good advertising if customers buy something. A missed opportunity here!!

Thank you for your review, VikingPro. We will pass along your positive experience to our team at Hawk's Eye Golf Resort. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Wonderful Course
Course was in terrific shape. Starter was really friendly and helpful. I thought the price to play was a little out of line for a Thursday mid morning. The club house food offerings were disappointing but maybe that was due to the Covid. Overall, I look forward to returning and playing here again.
