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.

Fall golf

Played on a beautiful fall day and the coarse was awesome. My favorite time of the year. Not many leaves to worry about with the staff clearing the affected areas. Wish it could last another week

Layout is Great

This course has great potential and more than likely its downfall was my timing. Greens were punched, but not dressed making putting impossible. There were several tee boxes under construction, but that didn’t alter play much.
I think this course would be excellent in July and August. All in all I really enjoyed this course and felt that if the practice greens were any indication of what the greens would normally be like, it would be a phenomenal course. The Staff was extremely friendly!

Fall Play

Usually a $75 charge to play here. With the app it was $45/pp - extreme bargain. Leaves all over the place including tee boxes (I get it, it's Fall) however, someone literally could have went around and blown the leaves off the tee boxes to either side and it would have been fine. That person that was on an extremely loud lawnmower and stood there in neutral while we tee'd off, could have done that. It was an okay round. Will probably only play here again if there's another sale.

This course was in good condition considering its still winter. But the temp was 65* and comfortable considering its only March 4th! Was surprised they were open, but was a gift that they were. The course was wet (expected) with cart path only on the front and for the 11th and 12th holes on the back. Greens still showed small holes from the Fall aerification, but were rolling pretty true and pretty fast considering. Fun Links style course with some personality. One of my favorite courses. I live near Syracuse, NY, but was well worth the hour-15-minute drive. I strongly recommend this course! When the course gets back to summer perfect it is definitely a 5-star course. IMO one of the best course in NYS.

Fantastic links style golf course, But....

Always a great golf course to play and one of the big three courses in the Binghamton area, along with Conklin Players Club and En-Joie golf club. Three negative takeaways were the greens hade recently been poked. But were about 74% healed but slow and still slightly bumpy, Give it another week or two to be fully healed. (not mentioned that GolfNow never mentioned the poked greens) Also, the bunkers were unkept. And some of the cart paths were in terrible shape. Some of the holes were cart path only, but I had to ride out away from the cart path as otherwise my back would not have survived the hard bumpy ride. I am mostly talking about the cart path along the river holes.

And now back to the good. From Tee to green was in great shape for this time of year. Love the course design, a beautiful professional style layout. Extremely picturesque. Course is full of possible signature holes. Staff was very friendly. Overall a fantastic experience minus a few negatives. Would strongly recommend it. Well worth the over hour ride from the Syracuse area. And the GolfNow rate was a bonus at less than $30. Hope to play it again before winter sets in. I'd have given it 5 stars except for a few minor negatives.
