Eagle's Landing Golf Course:
A Remarkable Setting with a Challenging Hurdzan Design .
Set on a beautiful piece land adjacent to Ocean City Airport and Sinepuxent Bay is Eagle’s Landing, a Dr. Michael Hurdzan designed daily fee club. The routing is a blend of parkland style holes framed with pines and mounding along with a selection of unforgettable seaside holes that play to the mercy of the every-present winds of the Mid-Atlantic Seacoast. Seven holes play along and over the tide marsh making appropriate shot selection an integral part to your round. The large, sloped greens, some reminiscent of the turtle backs of yesteryear, make your work with the flat stick daunting. A course that eases you into the round, Eagle’s Landing boasts a collection of water holes that will have you begging for the chance to return.

Feature Holes Descriptions:
The course opens with a few handshake holes, but stepping up to the Sixth Hole and seeing what lies ahead, tells you that the game is now on. The number one handicap hole is a risk / reward, dogleg left with a nasty forced carry over water off the tee. Number 7 is another dogleg left, this time massive loblolly pines guard the tee shot and a nearly 100 yard carry over tide marsh to the green needs to be navigated on your approach. The 17th is a vicious Par 3 with tees perched on a small, tree-encompassed island presenting a tight window to launch your tee shot to this massive devilishly sloped green. The finishing hole is a mid-length Par 4 with a thin strip of fairway interrupted by a forced carry again over seemingly endless tide marsh. This is a round that will no doubt bring you back for more.
