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 review

Guy couldn't locate my tee time on their tee sheet@ check-in. Said computers were down.The Girl behind the counter looked it up on her smart phone. A guy came out of the backroom and said they overbooked it, and I shouldn't of got the tee-time, but I didnt see anybody behind me the whole time on the course. Nice Fairways and challenging to hit.
All in all was a good course and less than 4hr. Round. (Bit of advice to staff, maybe print the tee sheet the night before).

Great Starter / Ranger Service

We played as a 2some and they let us go off early in an open tee time to avoid being behind 2 4somes. Rangers actually did their job and kept track of play with us going thru a 3 some so they could play without anyone pushing them from behind even though there was a 4 some a couple of holes ahead. Gread communication from starter and rangers that made it a great experience in spite of the course being fairly full. Mostly the rangers at most courses are only interestedin looking for golf balls for themselves. They didn't push others but did keep track of play which makes for a more enjoyable round for all.

I had a great expedience with all the staff that I had to deal with, they were real professional friendly and polite .The course was in great shape. my only gripe is some of the tee boxes were little rough. I will play here every time I am in the area.

Greens are lightning fast and in great shape

Great course condition with friendly staff. Got there at 6:40 for 7 am tee time. Strange that 'bagger' did not offer to take my clubs at bag drop area even though no one was there and he had nothing to do. also after golfing I hit at their range to 'fix' a couple of things. Strange that the range, although very nice hitting area, had no distances for their flags. Weird for such a nice course and facility. I'll be back though.

Pohlcat on a cool spring sunday

really nice course overall. got a great deal on the golfnow site ($25) Fairly tight on a number of holes, which added a pleasant challenge, was not overtly penal. only one complaint on the layout was with the forward tees on hole 17 (which otherwise is a spectacular hole, hanging above the river). a straight line from the teebox to the pin took you through a tree. my wife hit a great shot directly at the pin and had it deflected by branches. only blemish on an otherwise impressive course.
