Pohlcat Golf Club in Mount Pleasant has a winding layout that crosses the Chippewa River multiple times. The course sprawls across a diverse landscape that includes mature woodlands, rolling grassy meadows, and natural wetlands. It's a challenging layout with water coming into play on 14 holes and 56 bunkers strategically placed along the tree-lined fairways and greens. The tricky slopes and undulations on the greens, which can range from subtle to dramatic, add another challenging element to the golf course. The unique design goes back and forth between wooded holes and open, links-style holes, offering plenty of variety throughout. In addition to the golf course, there is also a practice facility available that includes a spacious grass range, two putting greens, and a short game area for putting and bunker practice.

Pohlcat GC

GN offers great deals for Pohlcat in Mount Pleasant and it is worth the drive. The facilities are great and although the course was busy, the staff remained friendly and kept up a great pace of play. The greens here were quick and the majority of the course tee to green was in excellent shape. The course gives a good mix of links-ish holes and tree-lined wooded holes which provided a unique challenge. Not to mention the course is only ~5min from the Soaring Eagle Casino. You can make a great day out of your trip. Will return to "Stalk the Cat" again soon.

PohlCat

1st time playing here. My wife and I played as a 2some with 7:30AM tee time. 2 men teed off at 7AM and we followed right behind. 3 hour round. Very nice design, only negative comment is that on some fairways and some tee boxes, no one uses the sand filler, hence big divots and sod. Greens were nice sized and very fair on their designs, no massive swales or humps. Would definitely play again.

Good shape for early in the year

Had a nice afternoon didn't have a problem with being held up. The course was a little wet but all in all it was nice to break 90 early in the year and get a jump start.

The course was in excellent condition for the time of year in Michigan!

My boyfriend and I played 18 holes, our last time for the season. We were very pleased with the course, staff and the weather! AND the deal was fabulous - $20 per person including cart. I look forward to playing the Pohlcat again in 2015!

Top Notch

Played for the first time. Lovely course with a river running around various holes on the course. It was very wet and the ball got little carry on the fairways. The staff had excellent customer service skills. I will be back for sure. Might be fun to do a stay and play with the casino only a short distance away.

This course has a good mix of challenges and hazards

First two holes are very challenging and force you to prepare quickly. Also, have extra balls since a few holes are tight and tree lined. Good overall mix of water and sand hazards as well as tall grass roughs and tree lined fairways.
