BUCKS RUN GOLF CLUB
🇺🇸 Mt. Pleasant, MI, USA
Designed by Jerry Matthews



Bucks Run Golf Club opened in 2000 in Mt. Pleasant, Michigan, designed by Jerry Matthews, a regional architect known for creating playable yet challenging courses across the Midwest. The facility sits in central Michigan's rolling farmland and features a routing that takes advantage of natural elevation changes and mature tree corridors. The course plays through a mix of open and wooded terrain, with several holes framed by hardwoods and others offering longer views across the property's gentle contours.
Matthews incorporated water hazards on multiple holes and positioned bunkers to reward strategic placement off the tee. The layout offers variety in hole lengths and angles, with risk-reward opportunities that allow golfers to choose aggressive or conservative lines depending on conditions and skill level. The greens feature moderate undulation, and the course conditioning typically reflects the standards of a daily-fee facility serving both local members and visiting golfers.
Bucks Run serves as a popular venue in the Mt. Pleasant area, which is home to Central Michigan University. The course hosts regional amateur events and provides a solid test for golfers of varying abilities. The facility includes practice areas and a clubhouse with dining options, functioning as both a community gathering place and a destination for golfers traveling through central Michigan.
