Rating 72.3

Eagle Glen Golf Course is one of central Michigan's best public courses. It has a traditional links-style layout reminiscent of the great courses of Scotland. The wide-open landscape is dotted with natural wetlands and tall native grasses. The layout features large, rolling greens that are framed by strategically placed bunkers and gently sloped mounds. The greens can be tough but there is usually ample room for recoveries and the generous landing areas give high handicappers a chance too. There are many water hazards that come into play but one of the most difficult elements of the course is the wind. It's a layout that requires both accuracy and proper club selection. The sixth hole is one of the Eagle Glen's prettiest but also one of its toughest. This par 3 demands a challenging carry over a pond with very little room for error.

Very Slow Round

5 1/2 hour round for two people AND the front nine played relatively fast - No Marshall on the back nine and some very inconsiderate golfers.

Course is in good shape and somewhat linksey, but a few holes have trees? - not a true links course. The cart paths are excessively far away from greens, tees, range - the marshall on the front nine asked us to stay on paths. Slow play and picky marshalls who don't actually do the job we want them to do - never again!

Beautiful corse

This course is long and very forgiving with a lot of strategically placed sand and high heather. Scenery is very nice and the fairways are Mint.

Great Course

I really enjoyed playing Eagle Glen. It has the perception of being wide open as there are little to no trees but every hole has deep weeds that get you in trouble if you aren't hitting your tee shots straight. The fairways and greens were in excellent shape and some of the greens had very challenging slopes.

Rude Staff, long waits

I have golfed here many times, each time that I used GolfNow I've had problems with staff members during check-in. Ranger has no idea what is going on half the time, which means long waits.

Fit for a King

This course was named for the Eagle, but it was born under the sign of the snake. What this course lacks in elevation change it makes up for in sheer audacity. It is long (made longer with a twist at every turn), but fair. It's judicious nature balances on a pin's head between the challenge of a championship course and a need to attract weekenders, out-of-towners, and members. By that, I mean that it could have been turned into a carnival attraction very easily in an attempt to exaggerate.
It may not have the vistas of the middle hills of Gaylord or the rocky rills of Marquette, nor the swamps and moss of the Canadian Lakes, but it is one of the few courses where I can remember every single hole in succession, though I've only played there several times. I can't say that about some of my favorite courses I've played many times over. It is immaculately manicured, and the staff are very friendly, even when you park too close to the tee box (wink, wink). If you haven't played the back side, it is one of the best stretches of golf in lower Michigan. I can't wait to play it tomorrow. I'm going low!
Side Note: One mile down the road is a great little town called Farwell. If you're thirsty after your round, DJ's will accommodate with very helpful staff and good home-cooked food.
If you take 115 north about 15 miles you'll come upon an antique store on your right, just as you cross the Muskegon River. That's my store... Restore Galore. Stop in and take a guided tour of a living museum at no charge... but what items you leave with.

waiting

I (we) love this golf course, we play here about 10 times a year. The course is always in very good condition, very well cared for, although some of the planted areas g=could use some love and tender care.
The only minus point we have is that the pass of play is slow. And that is not necessary. People playing from the back Tees , where it is obvious that they should be playing from the middle Tees slows down play by at least 30 minutes per 9 holes., If they were to play from the middle tees, they would have to look for their balls that often and would speed up play, or they could let people trough so that a 2 some doesn't have to wait on every hole and often on every shot. And even looking for balls should be NOT longer then 5 minutes, but that is also something they haven't heard of.So maybe the ranger could help out here.
It doesn't help play if you have to wait all the time, rhythm is gone and scoring gets worse and the fun is lost.
If it wasn't such a beautiful course we would probably not play there that often, but the course makes up for the slow play.

Great course landscape

Well maintained from tee to green. Some nice and unique holes. Course played a little easier due to the short cut of the heather (tall grass) but will be a major hazard w/i the next month. Overall very nice.

Nice course, but grounds crew a bit rude

Friendly and casual course. Average difficulty. We had a bit of an issue with grounds crew (with loud machinery) on a couple of holes making us feel like we were in the way.

Nice course

Was overbooked on tee times. First tee had three foursomes waiting when we arrived. We ended up only golfing 9 of our 18 holes due to slow play.

Overbooking is the norm for Eagle Glen. They make no bones about it if you bring it up. We will only play there once per year...simply because its a decent place. Would certainly play more often if they ran it better.

Excellent course - play it!

This is one of mid-Michigan's BEST maintained courses, with excellent greens and a moderate challenging layout. If you're looking for a quality round of golf, and want to enjoy the scenery and the course itself, this is one of a handful in the area I would recommend.
