Bucks Run Golf Club

Course was in very good condition and fairways were plush.

Green were excellent, fairways were excellent,

Overall the course conditions were very good, especially considering the time of year- early October in Michigan

An unplanned quick 9 on the way home turned out to be a great choice. I will definitely be back to play a full 18. Conditions ideal and not a soul on the track when I played. Golf heaven has a few locations and this is one of them.

Played in early Nov during a warm spell. Course was nearly empty but they were still working hard to keep it in good shape and keep the leaves out of play. Lots of water and plenty of trees but I never felt hemmed in or like my drives had to be perfect. Greens were in fantastic condition. I expect they are really fast in the summer but they were still a little fast in Nov and ran true. Loved the mix of shorter par 3s. About the only hole I didn’t like was 18, a very long par 4 with water all down the left side and a forced carry almost right up to the green. I’m a low single digit handicap but only drive the ball about 230 or so. On this day it was dead into the wind so standing on the tee I just made the call to treat it like a par 5.

Excellent course, sucks that the carts won't let you actually manoeuvre around the course to retrieve balls

This course has lots of water on the front nine holes and it is a lot of fun. Bring your driver and make sure you can hit it where you wanted to go. Long par three on the front nine. If it’s windy this course is very tricky. Only played nine holes because we played twilight after work. It was my birthday and what a treat discourse was. The greens are fast and the layout is superb. I shot a 46 in my body shot a 43.

It's a fantastic golf course. It was a bit slow, 5 hours.

Staying at the nearby Soaring Eagle Casino, the location was ideal. First time playing this course. Very nice layout with par 4s that are distinct. Excellent conditions. Bent grass fairways. Greens very good, leaning toward fast with tricky undulations but fair. Fairways tend toward narrow If you spray your drive, you will be exceedingly unhappy as holes are cut through the woods, at least on the front. Back is a little more open. I would rate this as a good walking course though the hike on 17 and 18 is a bit long. Round was 4.5 hours following a scramble outing. ( the group in front of me was terrible. They were at least 10 over.) I would definitely play again at $85.

Love the layout. Greens still recovering from aeration hut in good shape. Best hot dogs Ever.

I think you could argue $70 is the best deal in the state, and that includes a good amount of range balls for free. Bucks Run is a very playable course for higher handicap players and I think it’s a great time for large groups of players. The greens run fast but I thought they held approach shots well. Great mix of holes to start as the first hole is pretty easy but the second is probably the most difficult hole on the course. Only complaint is I thought the beer selection on the beverage cart was average and they didn’t have any seltzer’s.
