EAGLE CREST GOLF CLUB
🇺🇸 Ypsilanti, MI, USA
Designed by Karl Litten

Eagle Crest Golf Club sits in Ypsilanti, Michigan, a community in the southeastern corner of the state near Ann Arbor. The course was designed by Karl Litten, a Michigan-based architect who has worked on numerous layouts throughout the Great Lakes region since the latter decades of the twentieth century. Litten's designs typically emphasize playability for a range of skill levels while incorporating the natural terrain features common to Michigan golf—rolling fairways, mature tree corridors, and strategic bunkering.
The Ypsilanti area features gently rolling topography characteristic of southeastern Michigan, with hardwood forests and open farmland providing the landscape context. Eagle Crest's routing likely takes advantage of these elevation changes to create variety in hole character and shot values. The course serves both members and daily-fee players, functioning as a community amenity in a region with a strong public golf tradition shaped by the state's automotive industry workforce and university populations.
Courses in this part of Michigan often reflect the influence of classic Midwest design principles—tree-lined fairways that reward accuracy, greens with modest but meaningful contour, and a balance between risk-reward opportunities and straightforward holes. Eagle Crest fits within this regional golf landscape, offering a layout that accommodates local golfers seeking accessible yet engaging play. The club operates in a competitive market that includes both municipal facilities and private clubs serving the Ann Arbor and Detroit metropolitan areas.

Good course just so overpriced these days. $20 for a hot dog, chips, and drink at the turn
