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.

Very challenging track!

I would have given the course condition 5 stars, but half of the greens were under reconstruction, due to the harsh winter. The facility is spectacular, from the club house to the practice tees, first class all the way. I got a hot deal for a 2:10pm tee time, and the value, even with the greens conditions, was a bargain. I just moved up here from Raleigh, NC and if I can manage the same deal, I'll try to swing here all summer.

Great day for a round of golf. Beautiful weather, not crowded, and challenging but not impossible holes. Views around the lake are nice and different than many others around Ann Arbor.

One of the best in the state

As far as beauty, and overall experience, Eagle Crest is one of the top public courses in the state of Michigan. Located in Ypsilanti, home of Eastern Michigan University and a 10 minute drive from Ann Arbor, home of University of Michigan. Perfect for every occasion, even a weekend stay at the Eagle Crest resort.

Early Bird got the worm !

The course was surprisingly playable .One would think a green would have no roll given our brutal winter! Not the case at Eagle crest was great. The coming year brings promise I can't wait to play again.

Hot deal

I played this course on a hot deal. Beautiful course and it only cost me 11 bucks to walk 18. I got my first ace on the shot par 3. Ended spending more money on the drinks I owed than I did on the course itself!

My Favorite

Eagle Crest has long been my favorite course to play, and at $19 was an absolute steal. The changes that they have made and are yet to finish will further enhance the beauty and challenge of this awesome course.

A true gem in the Ann Arbor area

This is a beautiful course. I am writing this review in mid October so for fall golf this course is the best around. The best greens I have putted on since the private courses I have played. Usually expensive to play here but if you get a hot deal it well worth the wait. Had a pretty long wait on the back but it was probably the last nice day for golf so it was understood. If you have never played here before you really should check it out. Golf at it's finest

Tough track for the first timer

Course knowledge is essential to scoring well at this course.Must be in proper area of the fairway and the proper tier of the green to stand a chance of scoring well. Overall had a great time.

Lovely course - Super nice staff.

My husband (the better golfer) & I always enjoy playing this course. It is easy to get to (right off I-94). Although it is close to a main highway, you would never know it. The course is expertly maintained and the surrounding woods and beautiful Ford Lake view is a feast for the eyes. The course is moderate, but some holes can be very challenging - especially for a newbie golfer like me. The staff are very attentive and always try to accommodate your needs. We enjoy playing this course whenever we get the chance.
