About this course

Copper Hills Golf Club's Hill Course sits in Oxford, Michigan, a community in northern Oakland County roughly an hour northwest of Detroit. Designed by Curtis Wright, the course occupies rolling terrain characteristic of southeastern Michigan's glacial topography, where elevation changes and natural contours provide movement and variety across the layout. The region's mix of hardwoods and open land frames the holes, and the course takes advantage of the property's natural features to create a routing that emphasizes strategic shot placement over length. Wright's design work in Michigan during the latter decades of the twentieth century often focused on creating accessible daily-fee and semi-private facilities that balanced challenge with playability for a range of skill levels. The Hill Course reflects this approach, incorporating elevation into the design to add visual interest and require golfers to account for uphill and downhill lies. Greens are typically moderately sized with enough contour to reward accurate approach shots, while fairway bunkering and natural hazards encourage thoughtful course management. Copper Hills serves the Oxford area as a local facility where members and daily-fee players enjoy a traditional Midwestern golf experience. The course operates within the broader context of Michigan's robust golf culture, where public and semi-private clubs provide year-round communities with accessible options during the region's active spring-through-fall season. The Hill Course offers a straightforward test of golf shaped by the land's natural character.

Getting there

Most visitors to Copper Hills Golf Club arrive through Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport (DTW), roughly an hour's drive to the southeast, though Oakland County International Airport offers a closer private aviation option for those seeking discretion. The route north traces the gradual transition from Detroit's sprawl into Michigan's lake-dotted countryside, where suburban density gives way to rolling farmland and wooded hills. As you approach Oxford, the landscape takes on a quieter, more pastoral character - a fitting prelude to a club that has carved its fairways into the gentle terrain of northern Oakland County with understated grace.
