About
Located in between Ypsilanti and Ann Arbor, Washtenaw Golf Club, founded in 1899, is one of the most historic clubs in the state of Michigan. The club was private for most of its history, but an ownership change in 2019 turned this venerable layout into one of the area’s best public experiences. The 18-hole course plays 6,512 yards from the championship tees, though there are four sets of tees The club is in the midst of a multi-year restoration and enhancement project, guided by architect Ray Hearn, that includes green enlargements, tree management, and in the installation of some new championship tees. Facilities here include a putting green, small driving range, chipping green, and a large clubhouse, grill and bar, patio and event space.

B+
I’ll come back when I’m a scratch golfer cause the greens are very tough. Lots of slopes and undulation in the fairways also. First 6 holes are pretty straight forward then it starts to get interesting. Not an easy course at all but the conditions and layout are really good. Carts have a neat gps system but don’t have a usb port.
Love this course
Great shape as usual pace of play could have been better but not their fault.
Amazing Place!!!
This place just keeps getting better at all the little things! But the main attraction is this beautiful walk and really fun shots over and over as you traverse the gently rolling land near AA
Better courses near by
Overpriced for what it is, it was in decent condition but layout is pretty boring. Much better courses in the area for much less money. Clubhouse had no food and few drink selections on a Saturday
Has potential but too pricey
Titles says it all, you can see how this course could easily be $80 a round, but the course conditions do not warrant $80 a round. A solid $50-$60 place for sure but I’ve played MANY nice courses for less than what I paid at this place.
Steal.of a deal
If this course was geographically located in NC the price to play would at least double.
Course is an old fashioned, beautifully maintained gem. The fairways were lush and the greens were lightening. There are no houses along the course, giving it an elite Country Club feel. Course opened in 1899 and it truly has that old course feel.
I will have to play this course again and again to make sure it really is as good as I'm saying.
Great As Always
This course is an awesome challenge every time. The new back tees make it even more difficult than before, and I am all for it. The greens are fast, the pin locations are devious, and the fairways are tight enough to make 6700 yards all that is needed to challenge and frustrate people far better than I. The par 7 6th hole is always impossible, and hole 7 is one of my favorite holes anywhere.
Course was great
The course was amazing especially right after an outing had ended… the course is well manicured and just a very nice course and for the budgeted golfer, it’s a must play
