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.

scenic and challenging

This course features a unique combination of being very scenic and very challenging. A good portion of the front 9 is set around a lake which makes for some water challenges, as well as a beautiful setting. There are some very challenging holes on the front and the back, and a player who is not familiar with the course will be penalized for putting the ball in the wrong place. There are maybe six greens that have pin positions which you can't get a putt near from the wrong part of the green. There's a variety in lengths from the white and blue tees, and every club in the bag is used. The only things keeping it from being a 5 star rating: I've never played a round there in less than 4.5 hours and most have been more than 5 hours. It's a little pricy. It's a great occasional treat though.
