Michigan Golf Courses : Eaton County
Eaton County is located in central/lower Michigan, with Charlotte as the county seat. It was organized in 1837, named after John Eaton, Secretary of War under Andrew Jackson. Beginning in the mid 1820’s, many pioneers coming from New York and New England helped settle the area, which was known for its rich soil and agricultural potential. Its first major community was Bellevue, where a unique sandstone, later known as Eaton Sandstone, was discovered-eventually used for mortar in the State Capital Building. Another early community, just a few miles away, was Olivet, where in 1844, a college was begun by the Congregationalists, an anti-slavery denomination which at that time led the way in admitting blacks as well as women. Today, Eaton County has retained much of its agricultural tradition, still one of the leaders in dry bean and wheat production in the state. It has also kept its Early American, New-England-like atmosphere, as exemplified by Vermontville, which celebrates its annual Maple Syrup Festival the last weekend in April. There are many nice Michigan golf courses in the county. Tourism also plays a significant role, especially at Grand Ledge, which sits high atop sandstone cliff formations along the Grand River, with a view worth the trip. The historic Island Park in Eaton Rapids is another unique attraction, where you can picnic, feed the ducks, or just spend a lazy afternoon fishing along the Grand. Let’s see all the great Michigan golf courses in Eaton County, Michigan.

This course is much more difficult than it looks. The greens are average-sized, but slow. The fairways are open, but tree lined, and water hazards (ponds) come into play on at least two different occasions.

This facility has three nine hole courses played in various eighteen hole combinations. The gently-rolling terrain includes plush, undulating greens. The fairways are defined by a light cut of rough and lined by trees. Water hazards are strategically-placed throughout and provide a pleasing aesthetic.
Charlotte Country Club

Phone: 517-543-4018
Holes: 9
Par: 72
Rating: 70.8
Slope: 121
Status: Private
Season: April 1 thru November 1
Michigan Golf Courses Comments:
This course's greens are very fast and fairly small. The fairways are wide open and feature only a few sand bunkers in play. Some holes requiring well struck tee shots up dogleg fairways in order to set up approach shots to the greens. The signature hole is 3, a 125-yard, par 3. Beware, this green is severely sloped from back to front.
Grand Ledge Country Club
Address:
5811 E Saint Joseph Highway
Grand Ledge, MI 48837
Phone: 517-627-2495
Holes: 18
Par: 72
Rating: 70.2
Slope: 116
Status: Semi-Private
Season: Open All Year
Michigan Golf Courses Comments:
This course has a diversity of greens which were built on slightly rolling terrain. Many trees can alter your shots, and numerous sand bunkers come into play on the course. Shot accuracy is at a premium here because water comes into play on seven holes. Hole 14, a 345-yard, par 4, has water in front of the tee box and on either side of the fairway. This is one of the few Michigan golf courses that try to stay open all year.

This course is usually in excellent shape. The fairways range from tight to open, and the greens are fast and medium-sized.

This scenic course is always green. Water hazards come into play on four holes. The terrain is hilly, so you can expect some uneven lies. The small greens are undulating and moderate speed, plus the tree-lined fairways are bordered by a standard cut of rough.

This course's sloped greens are medium speed. The fairways are wide open, so don't be scared to break out the driver instead of the three wood. Water hazards (creeks) come into play on several holes.
