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 nice scenery just outside of Detroit.

Beautiful scenery surrounds this course. It has very challenging and smooth greens, running about a 12 on the day we played which was after a night of heavy rain, so one can only imagine how tough they'd be on a dry, hot day. Not that long but lots of trouble to get into if not hitting it straight. Bunkering is fair with nice quality sand. Good range and practice facility too. But was very impressed with the wonderful vistas so close outside the city of Detroit. Felt like northern Michigan or Florida.

Great on the Lake

Wow, this is one of the nicest courses I've played. The fairways and greens were immaculate (save for one green) and the greens were very fast and undulating. The best part of the course is the proximity to the lake which offers spectacular views. The presence of the hotel slighty detracts from the country club feel, but overall I will definitely be back and bring others to enjoy this masterpiece.

Diamond in the rough

Great course. Very scenic considering the area. If you can find a deal for under $35, it is well worth it.

Don't book a late twilight rate....

We got a great deal on a twilight rate for Eagle Crest, and got stuck behind a league. The league players clearly feel like they own the place--slow play, no regard for the people behind them. They tee off between 5 and 6 and only care that they get their 9 holes in before dark. 9 holes took almost 3 hours!!! Golf course is great and the starter is the nicest guy ever.

Fantastic golf course with 18 different and challenging holes.

Over the last five or six years, the course had a couple of groundskeepers who just didn't work out. The new groundskeeper has done a fantastic job revitalizing the course. The greens are in great shape and are as good as any of the famous private clubs.

Scenic. Great layout.

Traps need some work, overall condition very good. Play appropriate tees and you'll have fun. Driver may not be needed on certain holes, check yardage. Friendly staff. A little high end on food and beverage.

One of my favorites

Beautiful, challenging greens. There are some birdie holes and some holes you'll be lucky to par. The course is well maintained and quite scenic, especially when you consider you're in the middle of Ypsilanti.

They have a full range, a chipping green, and two putting greens. The club house is nice and has a decent restaurant. The staff is friendly.

I've been playing this course for about five years now. The course recently came under new management and all of the new changes to the course are great. If you haven't been here in a while it's worth coming back to see the changes. The greens are in fantastic condition.

The course is hard from the tips.
