Bucks Run Golf Club sits in the heart of Michigan's Lower Peninsula, where Mount Pleasant serves as home to Central Michigan University and a region defined by its flat-to-gently-rolling agricultural landscape. The course was designed by Arnold Palmer and Ed Seay, opened in 1994, and quickly established itself as one of the stronger public-access layouts in mid-Michigan — a rare opportunity to play a Palmer-branded design without a private membership.
The Palmer/Seay style tends toward generous fairways that invite aggressive play off the tee, balanced by strategically placed bunkers and water features that demand precision on approach shots. Bucks Run has earned a loyal following among central Michigan golfers as a step above the everyday municipal experience — well-maintained conditions and thoughtful routing that rewards course management over raw power.
Mount Pleasant sits roughly equidistant between Detroit and Traverse City, making Bucks Run a natural stop on any Lower Peninsula golf trip. The surrounding landscape is quintessential mid-Michigan: open skies, hardwood tree lines, and a quiet, unhurried pace that suits a good day on the course.
