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.

Great course

One of my favorite Mid Michigan courses. The subtle improvements that have been made recently and the attention to details have really brought the course back to spectacular. The course has been in great condition all year and the greens have been rolling phenomenal. I always look forward to my round here. The staff has been very helpful and courteous every time we visit. Very well stocked pro shop with great products. Looking forward to our next visit.

Heavenly

Golfed 18 today, my only complaint was the greens must have been recently aerated but the fairways were in beautiful shape! Awesome golf for late September

Another great round

This was my 4th or 5th round at The Cat this year and, as usual, the staff was VERY friendly and, more importantly, the course was in FANTASTIC condition. I hope I can get one more round in this year at The Cat before the snow flies!!!
