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 Course

This course is very scenic and very challenging. We played after several days of heavy rain and as a result the course played long and wet everywhere except the greens. There are a few multilevel greens that can be annoying especially if you're putting from an upper tier to a lower tier....impossible to stop some putts. Greens rolled fast and true while the overall course conditions and atmosphere resembles that of a private club. I'd recommend this course to my friends especially if you can catch a GolfNow HotDeal.

Beautiful piece of land.

Tough course not fitting for some golfers. We played the first 5 holes at a good pace then hit a wall of backedup groups. It ended up taking 5 hours to play without a stop at the turn for anything to eat.The yardage on the tee markers doesnt match any of our gps systems so that was a problem. I would like to see a yardage book or gps on the carts either would help.The condition of a couple greens were suspect but most ran true and fast. My buddies said the traps were nice. hahaha

**One of the Best in State for the Money. Awesome Greens and amazing Views**

Fantastic course in pristine shape. Lovely views and great layout. Played from the tips and it's forgiving off the tee for the most part. Some harder holes for sure. Greens take some time to read so playing here a few times would lower scores by 5-10 putts per round. 5 STARS!!!

slow play killed the round

the foursome that we caught up to on the back nine must of been the reason for slow play on the front nine. the ranger was out there and i was surprised he didnt say anything to that group. they were playing from the back tee's and should have been playing up at least one set of tee's if not two. people who tee'd off an hour later then us caught up to us because of the slow play in front of us. not how you want to play on a cool weather day.

Good course, good price.

There are 2 or 3 goofy holes, but the rest of the course is laid out well and it is always in good shape. Probably top 5 courses in the area for under $30.

Eagle Crest golf course

The course was in great shape, But we were told until we got there, that hole 10, 11 and 12 were closed.

I was not very happy, and how they tried to justify it was by saying it was unlimited golf!!

They didn't manage the course at all so it was a free for all people jumping in front of you on every hole!!

The fact that we had 2 guys that somehow thought it was okay to hit into us not once, but three times almost caused an altercation!!

Don't think I will be going back to the fact that they we not truthful that the course was under repair!!

Under construction

Two holes (10 and 12) were under construction so holes 10-12 were shut down. Didn't know this when I signed up. Still, for $25 it was a great value. This is one of the best courses I've played this year. I wish all courses' greens were this fast and true. Play was slower than I expected given that we teed off at 8:30 on a cold morning. I felt like we should have been able to play the front nine in under two hours but it was about 2:15 and we waited on a lot of shots. Some of the people playing the course shouldn't have been out there as they didn't have the skill level to play this course. And that's coming from someone who's not a great golfer (90-105).

Eagle's Crest -- One of our Favorites!

My husband and I played 18 holes at Eagle's Crest on Monday, Oct. 13. The rain clouds disappeared, the sun tried to come out and the course was absolutely beautiful. The leaves were changing colors, however, we were so impressed that there weren't hardly any leaves on the course. My husband is a much better golfer than I am. The back nine is definitely tougher than the front nine, but well worth playing any day!!

Excellent layout.

I had not played here in 15 yrs but it is truely a must play course, great layout. The only downfall by going through Golfnow.com is that they didn't inform us of the 3 hole renovation, but they did give you the option to play unlimited golf, so many players having this option kind of backed everything up a little.

Short, but challenging

Had a great time. Was paired up with two other guys and we enjoyed the round thoroughly. Course is short, but multiple water hazards and bunkers, with tight fairways, make shot making a premium. A very cool, windy day added to the challenge to score well. Beautiful views, very fast greens and lush fairways make this a great course to play.

Excellent conditions, very fast & tru greens

One of the best courses around, a hidden gem. A definite must play, and rates on golfnow are a definite plus. Make sure to roll a couple of putts before you go out. Excellent range as well, but must pay for balls.

Great course even in the rain!

The course got hit hard with rain just as i teed off and still a very enjoyable round. The layout is awesome with challenging par 4's and long par 3's. For the price, I would play this course twice a day!!
