“Classic Florida club with some elevation. Beautiful surrounds as the club is woven through a protected wildlife preserve. It won't beat you up either. Very fun and fair course. Be prepared for an enjoyable time."

“Hawk’s Nest is a hilly (for Florida) course built on a sand ridge. It has many interesting holes, especially on the back nine."

Review
“Hawk's Nest has an exceptional property situated along a high (for Florida) sand ridge. It has outstanding Layout Variety and is quite difficult. Conditioning is improving steadily under the relatively new ownership of the Moorings. A legacy of under maintenance continues to hold this course back from a higher ranking."

“Hawk's nest is far from the typical flat, housing-surrounded, and water-laden Florida course. It is set on a sand dune ridge, with no surrounding houses and minimal water hazards. The course takes great advantage of the sand ridge, particularly on hole #9 and the majority of the back 9. This creates intrigue, interesting shot options and solid variety."
