About this course
Eagle Glen is a daily-fee facility in Columbia City, a small town in northeastern Indiana's Whitley County. Designed by George Young and opened in the mid-1990s, the course occupies gently rolling farmland typical of the region, where modest elevation changes and stands of mature hardwoods provide definition to what was once agricultural terrain. The layout takes advantage of natural drainage corridors and existing tree lines to create a parkland-style routing that balances accessibility for recreational players with enough strategic interest to engage more accomplished golfers. The design reflects the practical approach common to many Midwestern public courses from this era, emphasizing playability and maintenance efficiency while incorporating water features and bunkering to add visual interest and challenge. Several holes move through wooded corridors, while others open onto broader meadow-like expanses where wind can become a factor. The property's modest scale keeps walking distances manageable, and the overall character is unpretentious—a straightforward test of golf suited to the local market. Eagle Glen serves the Columbia City area and draws players from Fort Wayne, roughly twenty miles to the south. The facility includes practice areas and a clubhouse offering standard amenities. As with many daily-fee courses in smaller Indiana communities, it functions as both a recreational outlet for residents and a destination for regional golfers seeking affordable play in a pleasant, low-key setting.

Getting there
The Links of Eagle Glen is most readily accessed via Fort Wayne International Airport (FWA), situated approximately 30 miles north, a straightforward 45-minute drive through the gently rolling farmland and small-town corridors of northeastern Indiana. From FWA, the route traces south through the quiet agricultural landscape before arriving at Columbia City, where the club's entrance emerges from the surrounding countryside with understated elegance. For those piloting private aircraft, nearby airstrips serve the region, though the drive from Fort Wayne remains the primary gateway for most visitors seeking this meticulously crafted inland links experience. The final miles unfold through the pastoral character that defines this corner of Indiana, a fitting prelude to a course that captures the spirit of seaside golf in the American heartland.
