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.

Great shape

A lot of the upper end courses I have played this year have been in rough shape. Not Eagle Crest. Greens were fast and true. Tee boxes, fairways, bunkers, rough areas were all in great shape. On top of that, it's a great layout. Highly recommend if you've never been.

Great place

This is a fun course on a beautiful piece of property.
It has plenty to offer any caliber of player.

My only criticism is that people don’t fix their ball marks on the greens

First Time Playing

Not what I expected

I’m a scratch golfer, so I know a thing or two. Given the price and hype I thought this was going to be a great play, but I was wrong. Waited to hit every shot on every single hole. Either get rangers to push bad golfers or spread out the tee times. The course conditions given its mid summer we’re honestly atrocious. Multiple greens had disease and almost every one was absolutely annihilated by ball marks. the tee boxes were more or less destroyed. Fairways were actually in decent shape and the first cut of the rough was probably the best grass on the course. Overall just not what I thought it was going to be. Really hoping they take note of this and make some improvements. Focus less on the off course amenities and make the course the highlight of your resort!

Great water views. Watch where you step.

Great, challenging layout with many views of Ford Lake. 2 suggestions: I was surprised that there are no ball washers on the course--or on the carts. Also, it would be great if they could find some way to limit the goose population. Sometimes they take over the greens, and you have to watch your step and look in the fairway to check whether that really is mud on your ball or what. Less gross would be nice. Hence the first suggestion.

Nice course

Greens had some spots that were in rough shape. Goose poop was out of control on some holes where you couldn't walk or play your ball without stepping in it.

No rangers to be found until the course was closing

The pace of play of this course was embarrasing. We had to wait 15 minutes on every hole. Tried to get somebody out there to speed play up but never saw anybody and pace remained the same through the remainder of the round. the course costs too much to play to have to play that slow. you expect to get what you pay for and we did not get that here. Other then that course was in great shape.

Top Class service

Love this course, we'll maintained and very friendly staff. Course is challenging but you can score if you position yourself well. Overall the staff could be one of the most pleasant I have ever interacted with. From the guys who check your bags to the starter and wait staff. All of them are just so friendly. Look forward to my my next round here.
