Suburban community tucked between golf courses in southwest Jackson
Creglow Heights bridges Jackson’s outer western communities with the more tightly populated areas near the city center. Taking its name from Creglow Drive within the neighborhood, this tree-lined residential community on the city's southwest end makes it easy to enjoy a favorite pastime of locals. “Jackson has a really robust golf scene, it’s really nice and affordable to play out here,” says Matt Schaffer, the museum assistant at Ella Sharp Museum. The museum sits about a mile south of the neighborhood. Its focus on local history and location within Ella Sharp Park has made it an enduring stop for residents of all ages, alongside the 18-hole course on the grounds. Three additional golf destinations are west of the neighborhood, giving residents a range of options to improve their driving and putting games. “We’ve had a long history of golf, too. There’s a local hall of fame and multiple organizations that organize golf tournaments,” Schaffer says.

New traditional homes and Cape Cods
Most of Creglow Heights’ homes were built between the 1960s and the early 2000s.

Most properties offer attached garages and basements. Properties generally sell after about two weeks on the market, and prices typically fall between $245,000 and $267,000. According to the First Street Foundation's Flood Factor index, some areas in the neighborhood near Sunburst Drive may have higher risks of flooding.

Life on the links at Cascades Golf Course and more
The neighborhood’s position near the southwest end of the city limits places residents between two of Jackson’s most popular casual golf courses: Cascades Golf Course at Sparks Foundation Community Park and Ella Sharp Golf Course at Ella Sharp Park. Both of these publicly owned courses offer 18-hole layouts and host competitions in the Jackson Amateur Golf Tour. “You can typically get on the green and play for less than $20,” Schaffer says. Additional golf destinations on the west side of Jackson County include the Country Club of Jackson, Hickory Hills Golf Club and Arbor Hills Golf Club, each within about 4 miles of Creglow Heights. Options for leisure beyond the fairway include family fun at Betsy Butterfield Memorial Park, educational activities at Ella Sharp Museum and biking or walking down the 10-mile Falling Waters Trail.

Acclaimed deli eats and accessible groceries
Creglow Heights’ most convenient dining and shopping options are spread across the south and west sides of Jackson.

Ironbark Brewing Company offers flights and pints of its own craft beer. Three doors down, Kibby Cobb Liquor and Deli offers wine and other refreshments for sale alongside a sandwich counter that earned the shop a nod as one of ‘Michigan’s Best Local Eats’ from MLive.com in 2024. Polly’s Country Market is a close option for groceries and everyday goods, while familiar shopping options further north in Jackson include Walmart, Kroger, Rite Aid and Meijer.

Fireworks at the Cascades on the Fourth of July
While Jackson’s major parks are well-regarded for golf, residents can enjoy other events at the city’s best-known spaces. Just west of the neighborhood at Sparks Foundation Community Park, residents can watch Fourth of July fireworks and light shows at the Cascades waterfall, one of Jackson’s premier summer attractions. During the operating season, the Cascades also puts on live music nights and food trucks, while the park itself hosts gatherings like the Jackson Civil War Muster and the Palooza at the Falls block party. To the south, Ella Sharp Park brings hot air balloon rides and competitions to south Jackson during the annual Hot Air Jubilee in the summer. Locals can also visit Ella Sharp Museum in the springtime for the Sugaring & Shearing Festival, which offers education on wool farming and maple syrup production with a petting zoo and local vendors.
