Course History
Discover the captivating course history of Copper Hills, from its dream beginnings to a stunning 27-hole golf experience.
Many years ago Curtis Wright had a dream of building his own golf course. He saved and worked as much as possible and began looking for that perfect place to turn his dreams into reality.
He favored the 367-acre parcel that now hosts Copper Hills because of its unique terrain of rolling “Hills”, “Marshes”, and “Jungle” like conditions. He started building Copper Hills Golf & Country Club in 1995 and opened the first nine of twenty-seven holes called the Hill course in April of 1997. The Marsh course followed in July of 1997 and the Jungle course opened up in June of 1999.
Rated as One of The Best Courses
Curtis Wright wanted to build one of the most beautiful golf courses in Oakland County. It’s a course that has now been ranked by Golf Digest as one of the best courses in the state of Michigan. It is also as one of top one hundred courses for women by Golf for Women Magazine. Copper Hills Golf & Country Club has had more than twenty write-ups in its existence, including a cover on Golf Michigan (southeastern Michigan edition).
