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.

Horrible

Terrible layout, excessive doglegs and elevation changes on the back. Gimmick layout. Very fast greens were fun, but most of the course is covered with bald spots, tree stumps, and geese. 3rd time playing, I’ll probably never return.

Always a pleasure

Always an amazing time getting to play a round at Eagle crest. Gets a bit expensive in peak season but getting out there in March or April is worth the cold. Course layout and the effort they put in to make sure conditions are mint even in the early season is amazing. Highly recommend!

EXCELLENT COURSE

It was very early in the Michigan golf season and the course was in good shape for this time of year. Enjoyed the layout and glad I got to play it for the $30 price tag. It is normally too expensive for me to play, $95 in season. I hope to get there again soon before the rates rise

Course is in decent shape

Front Nine there is NO doubt you could use carts. Back 9 last holes 12-16 a little wet 17 is par 3, 18 seemed dry also. Seems like cart path ONLY should be limited not fully implemented. Hole 12 is a like a garbage dump, all the rest of the holes are looking great. Once spring hits this place is gorgeous! (With the exception of Hole 12. Its a disaster. Orange extension cord plugged in to pump water i believe. Run off from hole 10 comes down. It needs som redesign help. Right now I would see what Bobby has at Hickory Creek until they take the cart path only off.

Love the changes to hole 16

I played this course for the first time last year and was a big fan of the layout. Lot of unique holes and a lot of variety between woods and water along the course. This year they cut down the trees along hole 16 to show off the lake, and it was a great move. The hole plays along the water for the entire par 5 now. I can’t wait to play this course next summer.

Great

The course was in great shape considering it was November 2nd. Greens were punched not too long ago but it didn’t affect the roll. They were smooth and fast. Fairways (when I hit them) were in great condition as well. Paid $65 but I’d say it was worth it

Great day for fall golf

The course was in excellent condition for fall golf. The course was practically clear of all leaves, fairways and greens were in great shape, and the staff is excellent as well.
