Rating 75.1

Located in Ypsilanti just off I-94 between Detroit Metro Airport and Ann Arbor is Eagle Crest Golf Club, operated by Eastern Michigan University and home to the college golf teams. Eagle Crest opened in 1987 and is a daily-fee course with a Marriott hotel located onsite. The elevated driving range and practice area overlooks Ford Lake and the course layout features several holes that play along its shores. The highlight is the signature par-5 16th hole that features a shallow, peninsula green on the lake. In 2012, EMU embarked on a 20-year master plan to the golf course that will elevate the stature of the course among NCAA host courses. Enhancements include tree management and more views of the lake, rebuilt greens and rerouted cart paths.

Beautiful November day

First time playing this course. Views were awesome. Course was in really good condition for so late in the year. For being so crowded the staff was doing a great job. A 78 degree in November is a certainly rare. Everyone and their brother and sister was out playing. There is a variety of holes with different styles. It was a great course and can’t wait to play again since now know layout. Carts were great and gps units were great. Especially since I was playing for first time. Will also look into taking advantage of discounts for alumni at EMU.

Eagle Crest

Played a 3pm Tee time. Pace of play was absolutely ridiculous. Did not tee off until 3:25. They had Eastern Michigan Baseball play a scramble, and it put everyone behind. Our pace of play was over 40 min behind schedule at one point. There was no official trying to get people to play faster. We were not able to finish the course. Barely made it to the 13th hole before the sun went down (7:10 pm). Disappointed with Eagle Crest not planning for this back up to occur. I will definitely golf here again, but I’m frustrated with today’s outcome.

Beautiful Course with Challenging Layout

I've heard so many good things about this course that I had to see it for myself and I was not disappointed. The weather was perfect and the views were serene. The golf shop staff was super friendly to us and helped with any and all questions that we had. We also had dinner at the restaurant and the food was superb. I can't wait to come back next year once 16 is back to a par 5.

Course under repair

No. 16 is set up now as a Par 3, rather than a Par 5, because of repairs and reseeding underway. I wish we had been told that prior to playing. the signs aren't clear about there not being a proper tee box. They just tell you to go to the fairway. Anyway, it seems like there are some major repairs, so I probably won't be back until the spring when it is hopefully completed.

Had a great time for golfing all 18 on my birthday this year. I will definitely be back again next season. The only bad/ sad thing was hole 16 was being seeded and thats one of my favorite holes. All and all though thanks for the great round of golf.

Excellent variety

Great layout with unique variety of holes. Unfortunatley, they were very busy and so pace was slow. And renovations turned a par 5 into a par 3. nevertheless, a really enjoyable challenge with difficult green complexes
