My friend threw his baby shower here and I can see this place being used for a variety of events. I would say that there was easily about 140 of us here comfortably. I don't know what the official capacity is but it could definitely hold way more because we didn't even make use of the upstairs space. The bathroom is nice - only downside is that it didn't have a baby changing table . Parking is decent . You can park in the lot right in front or go around the building and park there . I love that they have a stock room that is open so that you can store decorations, food etc. overall I highly recommend booking

"And fearless are the idiots Among the hawks and doves…read moreWe're on the outside looking in A couple of freaks in love" (Elton John) (A non-golfer's perspective) I'm not a golfer but have attended industry related golf outings for two organizations ever since I moved to Connecticut close to 40 years ago. Today was the first time one of those events was held at Hawk's Landing Country Club in Southington, and our 71 golfers and 21 additional dinner guests really had a positive experience. So here is my non-golf perspective of the day. The shotgun start took off at 10:00 am on the dot, and course rangers led a caravan of golf carts out onto the course. Within a few minutes, the smell of food cooking on the grills was all over the tented area, and as soon as the foursomes began to roll by, we enjoyed an early lunch of hot dogs, burgers, fries, and two kinds of pasta salad. The guy staffing the grill was super friendly and professional. A beer cart staffed by two young ladies from Hawk's Landing circulated the course all day selling beers and seltzers and beverages to the golfers. Our tournament ended in the early afternoon, so that tented area became a dinner site for our large group. Tables and chairs were set up to accommodate us, and a very good buffet dinner of chicken parm cutlets, vegetables, sausage and peppers, roast potatoes, Caesar salad, rolls, bread, and cupcakes was set up self-service style. A bar and staff bartender were inside the tent, and alcohol was ordered through drink tickets paid for by the hosting organization. Bottom line? The grounds are gorgeous, with flowers and flowering shrubs everywhere, the course staff was fantastic, and the food and dining experience was top notch. PRO TIP If you're running a tournament, outside alcohol is a no-no here. If your sponsors want to give out beer at their stations, they'll have to buy it from Hawk's Landing.

She forced a few of our guests, seniors, who arrived 15 minutes early, to stand in the parking lot on a very hot and humid evening. Her job as the owner was to make our guests feel welcomed and comfortable, neither of which she accomplished. To add insult to injury, the two small ac units, which would be suitable for a small bedroom, provided NO comfort at all. The temperature in that place was unbearable! Caroline bombarded me with passive aggressive, negative comments throughout the evening which I tried so hard not to let bother me. Her final performance of the evening was her demand that we take our garbage with us! I WAS HUMILIATED! I was not only robbed of thousands of dollars, (yes, thousands, for 42 people, and we brought our OWN alcohol and food) but robbed of the special evening I had planned for my daughter, her dear friends, amazing family and her soon to be family, on what should have been a memorable evening Four weeks after the disappointing event that still haunted me, I sent Ms. Bossetti an email expressing my concerns. I have never received a response from her. Watertown is a small town and stories get shared and stories travel, so I'm surprised others haven't written their reviews.
