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.

slow slow slow

Where do I begin? The course warrants a starter, but not course Rangers. Started my round around 5 PM made it to the 13th hole before I couldn't see. The rate of play was headed in the 5-6 hour range. They were also shooting engagement photos around the course which don't get me wrong is cool but not when I'm waiting 10-15 minutes to hit my approach shot because you on the green. Make sure the rest of your day is free and make a tee time before 3pm or you are not finishing your round.

Must Play again soon.

Course was in excellent shape. Greens were in outstanding condition. Bunkers were the only disappointment--very hard. Starting on the back nine, not sure why, was making good time until we turned the corner. Everything slowed down to a grinding halt making it very frustrating. Out nowhere there were several groups in front of us. What would have easily been a 4 1/2 round or less, turned into a 5 hour round. Other than that the staff was excellent. Will certainly play again soon.

Great views

Love this course! Greens were a bit beat up but we played late in the day so, free pass. Very challenging, plenty of trouble. Played as a twosome and couldn't get the slow foursome to let us pass, after we skipped them at the turn pace was fine.

Course is getting better

Course is getting in better shape. The green fees are a bit high. Without GolfNow discount I would play elsewhere. A fun course to play as long as they aren't completely booked this course is known to play 5 hours plus which is no fun.

Eagle Crest, Ypsilanti MI

Beautiful course! Challenging but still fun for novices. Some greens had flaws in the grass - a little patchy- but still playable. Hoping to return soon.
