The Links at Hiawatha Landing
Rating Snapshot
About
The Links at Hiawatha Landing sits along the banks of the Susquehanna River, nestled between the Finger Lakes and the Catskill Mountains. It's one of New York's premier upscale public golf courses. Despite the name, the course has more of a heathland layout than a true links course since it lacks the seaside location that is the cornerstone of traditional Scottish links golf courses. The design still has many links features though including windswept sand bunkers. The rolling terrain provides a variety of elevation changes that range from subtle to dramatic and the tall grasses make accuracy a necessity. Water comes into play on seven holes but there aren't any forced carries or blind shots, making the golf course approachable for even high handicappers. The Links at Hiawatha Landing finishes with a challenging par 5 that doglegs left around a large pond.

Challenging
There has been an unprecedented amount of rain lately which has many courses very wet. We were pleasantly surprised with condition of course. It was wet but very playable. We did have to do Cart path only on 11 of 18 holes which slowed play a little. Greens were in good condition. Weather was good to start and we got done before some imminent rain forecast. Overall good day.

Good course. Sand traps are iffy and cart path needs work
Great value
We were able to play a great course at a discount price! Great value and great course to play!
Awesome
Love playing this course! You hardly ever have to wait on the group in front of you if there is one and the staff is so friendly! There are some challenges and the greens always run true.
nice time.
I was visiting the area and found the course through golf now. Nice course in good shape, greens seemed a little hard but it is July. One "got'cha" hole, #18. Until you've played it once, it's hard to know where to hit your drive. It looks like you can cut a corner and get rewarded, but it is much further than it looks. Otherwise I enjoyed the round a lot. Staff was friendly and helpful.
Great Course Value
Loved playing this Links Style Course, we had +15 winds which made things interesting but it was a fun round.
PROs -Course conditions, Staff, great practice facility with a wedge green, driving range and putting green.
Room to improve - Not a big concern but if they repaved the cart path and renovated the hitting area of the driving range this course would be perfect.
Would definitely come back and play again.
Always Good
Had and enjoyable day, to the group in front of us who kept searching for balls in the water or high grass, just drop and go because you probably not going to find it.
Nice layout
Quite early morning round with rain coming at some point, was able to play quickly, every hole is different from the one before. Need to keep it out of the high grass very tough to find balls that go off the fairway. Very good experience and will be back.
Beautiful course
The course is in great shape as usual. Friendly staff reasonable costs. Play it if you get the chance
Good Course for a Rookie
