Eagles Landing Golf Club

Eagles Landing Golf Club sits in Berlin, Maryland, a small town on the Delmarva Peninsula roughly ten miles inland from Ocean City. Dr. Michael Hurdzan designed the course, which opened in the late 1990s as part of a residential community development. Hurdzan, known for his environmental sensitivity and agronomic expertise, routed the layout through gently rolling terrain typical of the Eastern Shore region, incorporating natural wetlands and mature tree corridors into the design. The course plays through a mix of open and wooded corridors, with water hazards factoring into several holes. Hurdzan's design philosophy emphasizes strategic options from the tee and playability for a range of skill levels, while still presenting challenge through thoughtful green complexes and hazard placement. The relatively flat to gently undulating topography allows for walkable golf, though the layout spreads across enough acreage to create variety in hole character and separation between playing corridors. Eagles Landing serves as a semi-private facility, welcoming both members and daily-fee play. The club operates within the broader context of Maryland's Eastern Shore golf market, which includes numerous courses serving both local residents and seasonal visitors drawn to the nearby Atlantic beaches. The setting reflects the agricultural and residential character of Worcester County, with views extending across fairways bordered by native grasses and stands of loblolly pine. The clubhouse provides standard amenities and dining typical of modern golf facilities in the region.
