About Hawk’s View Golf Club:

Hawk’s View is a family-owned, public golf course offering the Golf and Wedding experiences of member-only country clubs. Our staff enjoys a relaxed family-style work environment that is customer-focused on providing the best possible service. We take pride in our ability to perform above and beyond expectations typically reserved for other public courses.

Hawk’s View is known for its amazing Fish Fry and was voted “Favorite” Fish Fry in the “2022 Best of Geneva Lake” edition. Our Fish Fry is open year-round and is so busy that reservations are strongly recommended. A typical shift in the course comes in various waves based on how many are on the course and when. Plus golf outings with luncheons require someone that’s quick on their feet and can adapt to those various waves of food requests.
