Water's Edge Golf and Country Club

Water’s Edge Country Club is dedicated to improving the community by:

  • Providing quality leisure time activity for the family at an affordable cost.
  • Providing economic support through employment and use of services.
  • Creating a positive environmental impact through green space maintenance.

Located on approximately fifty-five acres at the intersection of Bellevue and West River Roads, this unique club provides facilities for golfing, swimming, and boating.

Water’s Edge Country Club includes a regulation nine-hole golf course, a driving range, a putting green, and a chipping green. The course is meticulously maintained for golfing enjoyment seven days a week. The pro shop opens at 7a.m. to insure that members can arrange their desired tee times and make any necessary inquiries regarding club activities.

Water’s Edge employs a P.G.A. certified golf professional who provides a range of services for the golfing community. He gives golf lessons for all levels of play and coordinates a Junior Golf program. The Water’s Edge management is especially pleased with the Junior Golf program. It has grown from 20 participants in 1995 to 120 participants in 2001.

The Club has two swimming pools. The larger pool measures 30 x 75 feet, has five lanes, and a three to five foot depth range. The smaller or training pool, measures 20 x 40 feet, and has a maximum depth of three feet. The pool area is a spotless, pleasant environment where members and their guests can relax. Adjacent to the pool area is a sand volleyball court.

Swimming lessons are popular and important at Water’s Edge. Instruction is provided for children each summer in two, consecutive, three-week sessions under the supervision of a Michigan certified swim instructor. An Aquasize program is provided for adults. Swimming lessons are held on weekday mornings, leaving the afternoons and weekends for open swim.

Water’s Edge Marina provides summer dockage for fifty boats and winter storage for approximately eighty boats. The docks, piers, and work areas are carefully checked daily for any necessary repairs and maintenance. Our marina lift operator provides launches, haul-outs, and emergency services. The marina occupies 800 feet of waterfront property. About 920 feet of waterfront property remain undeveloped for future marina expansion.

Adjacent to the clubhouse ia a full service reestaurant providing fine food and good spirits for the membership and the community at large. The proprietor will help you with any food and beverage service needs.

Owned and operated by the Township of Grosse Ile since 1974, Water’s Edge Country Club takes great pride in its’ “Enterprise Fund” status. The Club relies solely on fees for service. No tax dollars support Water’s Edge. In 2001, 867 families from Grosse Ile and neighboring communities enjoyed our facility. We are grateful for their support and for the opportunity to have a positive impact on the community.
