White Hawk Country Club - Black Hawk Nine
About
There are 36 holes of championship golf available at White Hawk Country Club. The club's four nine-hole golf courses are named Grey Hawk, Black Hawk, Red Hawk, and Silver Hawk. The Black and Grey Courses formed the original 18-hole layout when the club first opened in 1996. The Black Hawk nine is the shortest of the four at 3,469 yards from the back tees. It has a more traditional links-style layout that is player friendly enough for beginners but still offers a challenge with strategically placed bunkers and water hazards. The club's signature hole is the par-3 sixth, which is known for its intimidating island green. White Hawk C.C. has been ranked as one of northwest Indiana's best golf courses and it is conveniently located less than an hour south of downtown Chicago.

very nice variety of holes short and long
it had been 2 yrs. since we played white hawk. the course was in great shape except for a few of the sand traps had not been dragged for at least a week in looking at them. tees fairways and green well above average.
Great Course
Awesome course. Very busy and they over booked the course. Lost a ton of balls.
This course is sweet!
I love coming to this course ( White Hawk), The people are friendly and the course is always in fabulous shape. I travel from Orlando to visit and always make a point to play White Hawk as often as possible.I consider this course challenging but golfer friendly.
I'll be back in the spring,see ya!
Always a clean track
With the exception of playing after a huge outing, White Hawk is creeping up on being the best couse in NWI. With the new owner, alot of issues and course related problems are being addressed. Silver has been completely redone, and is carved into the woods with pristine greens and beautiful, elevated greens. Best value for the money. Just watch out when you book, verify there are no outings or your pace will be 5hrs with hacked up fairways.
Great course, unbelievable bargain!
For only being an hour outside downtown Chicago, this course is a great bargain! The course was in phenomenal condition. It had rained quite a bit the night before so the bunkers were slightly washed out but nearly all were still playable. Greens were a touch on the slow side but I attribute that to how wet the course was. Overall, great find and I will be back!
Course is fun to play
Course is well managed and staff is excellent. Pace is 4 hours. Course is well maintained and in great shape.
Worth the Drive
From the time you step on the property you feel like you are at a private country club. The course is just in perfect condition. There is four nines that they rotate. Greens roll like PGA tour greens. Just an overall great course! You can not beat there prices either for these types of golf courses.
I love the wide inviting fairways.
There are four nines at White Hawk. We played Red to Black. Red is fairly flat while Black has more rolling hills. Both have plenty of big bunkers. Most greens are well protected and are large and multi-level. My only complaint is that we followed a fivesome on the back nine. We were just a twosome and they never offered to put us through. However, even that was forgivable because a member of that group aced #6 and we got to hear them celebrate. It was fun.
Excellent facility!
Links style well kept course even after a week or more of no rain and high summer heat. 4 nines all slighty different. fairways and greens excellent shape. Greens fast but fair. GPS on cart a great touch and helped pace of play. Houses on holes on 3 of the 9's but set far back so as to be out of play. Multiple sets of tees so fair for all with good space between. Great clubhouse bar restaurant. Best value in greater Chicago area
THIS COURSE HAS GREAT FEATURES
THE COURSE WAS FUN TO PLAY. EVERYONE WAS VERY NICE,GREAT CLUB HOUSE. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT.
Excellently maintained challenging golf course
Played as a single and finished in just over 3 hours. Beware if you have to play the Silverhawk course, I have never lost so many golf balls in 9 holes in my life. If you have played golf for a while and want a challenge, this is it.
Well kept
Golf course was well maintained. Would of liked the pace of play to be a little quicker had to wait on a few holes
great course, lots of variety in hole designs
Great place to play, good value for price, 4 nines make for lots of variety
Very nice complex.
Whole facility was very nice. Four -9 hole layouts. Interesting design, and well maintained. Well worth $35.
Great track every time
I love this course because the greens are pretty well maintained, challenging but not unfair, and with 36 holes there are always options.
Great value
Only drawback was the water coolers were not full and it was hot. Lot of forced carries pick your tees wisely.
Greeat layout, chalanging approach shots.
I love the coarse, however, there ary many spots where you can get in trouble. Greens are fast but true. Lots of traps, however, some could have more sand addded, especially around the greens. Overall good pace of play. I will go back!
great total golf exsperience
All around great day. staff was great and the course is coming alive famously.
Tough but fair
Nice clubhouse and pro shop. Course is in great shape and was a very nice experience. It gives you nothing but not so tough to be discouraging. Would love to play it again.
