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.

Great Experience

I wasn't expecting such a challenge. Our group is going to play it again and play it totally different. Amazing course, great shape but requires accurate tee shot and need to know the slopes of the green to have any chance of scoring well

6 hour 20 minute round

Played 9 holes in a little over 3 hours after paying 60 dollars for 18 holes. What a joke. Was given a rain check for 8 holes after asking the pro shop. This was taken care of very unprofessionally after being polite about the horrendous pace of play. Won't be coming back anytime soon. They need to hire a ranger who actually does what he is hired for.

Call first

Wow, what a surprise upon checking in. Walking only and there are no pull carts! This should be highly noted on the reservation. Could have come prepared. Even when the limited number of carts were returned in they were given to people behind us! ! Argh To top this off, the pros shop closed around 3:30 so no way to pick up something to eat and/or drink. The course was in pretty good shape this early and the layout is always challenging.

The greens will get ya.

The greens were lightning fast, rolled true, and posed as at least half the challenge of the course. Try to keep the ball below the hole or you're in for a few 3 or even 4 putts. Great layout overall, and just wait til you get to number 16!

Not impressed

Greens were terrible. Greens keeper should be embarrassed. Fuzzy and the patch work was horrible from repair jobs although I only scene first two greens. I like the coarse ended up getting rained out. They don't rain check your round they prorated the holes. Hilarious. I play all over usually try to play here once a year, I was kind of disappointed with cold staff, hot dogs were out, getting rained out then the cheap rain check.

Premiere course in region

Very enjoyable round of golf. One of the premiere courses in the area and more than reasonably priced. Great views of Ford Lake. Very well maintained course. Back 9 is more challenging by far!

Eagle Crest

Staff was very friendly. Course is challenging but fair. We were disappointed that we were not allowed to tee off at our allotted time. The proshop had made a error in 1 tee time before us putting us off 10 minutes later. Then we were supposed to be paired with 2 others but the starter decided to let them go off by themselves. WHAT??? We weren't good enough to play with long hitters??? We ended up waiting on virtually every shot when we could have kept up with them on each hole.

Absolutely Hauntingly Beautiful Golf Experience

Eagle Crest CG is stunning! From the moment I stepped on the property I fell in love with this course in every way. The 16th is by far the best hole I have ever played, I'd play the green fee just to play that hole. Love

Amazing course..

We went out here for a late day 6:30pm round.. Visiting from out of town and not really aware of the layout or shape of the course. It was a pleasure to play. Even if it was extremely difficult, the views, condition and overall play of the course was well worth the 25$ or so we got it for. If I'm back in Michigan again, this will be on my list.

Excellent course to play

Eagle Crest is a hidden jem in SE Michigan. The course has a beautiful in landscape with a good amount of hills and lake views. Maintenance is well done. Green conditions are great. Sands are little on the hard side but playable. Simply a picturesque course to play!
