A victim of the golf recession

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.

Tough Course!

I'm a 16 handicap player and this course was too difficult to be fun. Too many blind shots, large bunkers which discourages people from raking, and course does not seem to flow well. Greens were nice but a wee bit slow. Staff was friendly and helpful. Dinner at Pelican's Nest after golf was delicious.
