A challenging, picturesque golf course located in Mt. Pleasant, MI! A unique venue used for weddings and golf outings. This course boasts a one of a kind putt-putt course located on an island! A great kid friendly experience. Play Bucks Run today!

I don't even know where to start! My husband and I recently got married at Bucks Run in August of 2019 and we can't express how appreciative we are on how amazing they made our wedding day. Every women dreams of the perfect wedding day and Amy the wedding coordinator with Bucks Run and the beauty of the facility made that perfect day possible. We fell in love with this venue after attending a bridal show and meeting with Amy for our first time! Amy was wonderful from the start. She was so responsive and reassuring and paid attention to every little detail. There were times on Sunday nights where I would email her at 2100 and I would get a response right away, reassuring me that everything was going to be perfect. Now I don't know about anyone else, but this was my first wedding and I couldn't have imagined having it any other place. I never felt stressed through the planning process because of how knowledgeable Amy is and how she is so willing to work with you to make your wedding day exactly as you imagine. She helped guide us along the entire process and if it wasn't for her there probably would have been quite a few tears shed in the process. The day of the wedding Amy was present the whole time to make sure everything was absolutely perfect. Amy was also very accommodating along with chef Ben when I needed to change two plates for my guests that were vegan just 2 weeks before the wedding day! She made our decorations look perfect that fell down from the night before decorating and took care of it all for us so we could relax and get ready. While also making sure we were all settled in while getting ready in the VIP suite. The Bucks Run crew set up our chairs for our ceremony and were so attentive to everyone's drinks for the reception. This place is absolutely stunning and not far from hotels for out of town guests! There are also many beautiful places around the course for amazing pictures which Amy helps guide you to! Thank you Bucks Run and Amy for making our wedding day perfect we wouldn't have wanted it any other way!

I’m a bride who just had my wedding at Buck’s Run and they made the whole process as easy as planning a wedding could possibly be without a planner. Their event coordinator Lisa was phenomenal; very knowledgeable and accommodating for our requests and preferences. She kept the whole day running smooth. Their staff was so professional, we would absolutely do it all over again at Buck’s Run!

This is definitely one of the best courses in Michigan. It Is very well maintained, and it follows the natural landscape of the land beautifully. But best of all, it's very challenging, which makes it an exciting course. The GPS system on the carts is very precise and helpful. The staff are very nice and are accommodating. I highly recommend you check it out! You won't be disappointed.
