About
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.

Golfer Reviews
Horribly slow pace of play
We secured a reasonable tee time with the knowledge that a league would be out on the course but shouldn't cause any issues. It took a friend and myself NEARLY FOUR HOURS to play eight holes. We left the course out of frustration. There were no staff to be found to encourage an even remotely reasonable pace of play. There was no way we were going to bother waiting so we could take seven plus hours to play 18.
Stalk the Cat, you won't regret it.
Course is awesome. With Golf Now hot deal, unbeatable experience. Cloudy misty day kept the crowd down. Played in under 3.5 hours on a beautiful course.
Northern Michigan layout, centrally located
For me, this course is a once or twice a year thing, as the rates are a bit pricey for me, although 60-70 bucks not bad for some people.
The layout is gorgeous. Some of the challenges that awaits are wooded holes and some of the open variety. Absolutely love #2 over the Chippewa River as well as #17. Paid $55 on July 4th which was great value.
The fairways are wide and forgiving for the most part and the greens roll TRUE everytime. Alot of acreage is covered by this layout and I will always try to play here at least once a year.
PohlCat Review
My husband and I really enjoyed the course. Golfing in the late fall with all the leaves etc... is always challenging and this course was loaded with trees, but we loved it. The fall colors were beautiful. I will golf it many more times.
NICE
I really like Polhcat - it was just starting to change colors - I will go back in 2 weeks to see it again.
it was really worth the time and effort
This is an excellent course and the staff was very friendly. They provided you with playing tips and recommendations. The whole experience was a wonderful way to spend a lovely day.
nice layout, coarse in great shape
coarse was in really good shape, great greens, every putt had a curve to it which made it nice, your putting game better be on .
nice course
This is one of the nicest courses I played this season with very fast and true greens. When around the Mount Pleasant area I always try to play this track when able to get a good price.
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.
Great course
Golfed here for the first time brought my son and wife. The staff was very friendly. The course was in great shape,pace of play was not a problem we didn't run into anyone once we got started. I definitely would recommend playing this course.
Very Enjoyable
Great course. Fun to play. Greens in great shape. Will go back for sure.
The course was in great shape!
Love playing this course whenever we head to Michigan. Greens putt true and has some challenging holes.
Pohlcat is worth seeing.
For me it was a bit tight but definitely playable. I wish i could have used driver more. With that said just play smart and enjoy the course from the fairway!
Easily playable.
this course plays long. It is well maintained with a nice clubhouse. It's a continuous 18 so they have a very efficient food and beverage cart for your convenience.
Great place
Very challenging and Beautiful golf course the green and fairways are in good shape for early spring
Pohlcat was, as always, excellent!
Pohlcat was, as always, excellent! I recommend this course to anyone who wants to play a challenging, super-well maintained course.
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.
