Bucks Run Golf Club - About Us

Bucks Run Golf Club is owned by the Fisher family of Mount Pleasant and Midland, Michigan. The Fisher Family also owns Fisher Contracting, Central Asphalt, Fisher Transportation, Central Concrete, Fisher Sand and Gravel, Bay Aggregate, Midland Engine, and numerous other local businesses.  Please visit the Fisher Companies Website for more information. 

The site that Bucks Run currently sits on is a 290 acre piece of property, located in Isabella County. The property has been in the Fisher family since the early 1950’s, where it was used as a mining operation for gravel, rock, and sand. Operations at the mine halted in the early 1990’s, leaving the site quiet and undisturbed for nearly a decade.

Construction of the golf course began in the spring of 1999, and the golf course opened for play on July 1, 2000. Architect Jerry Matthews, who has designed numerous other golf courses in Michigan, designed the course. The largest lake, Lake Fisher, was once the main quarry for the mining operation and is now surrounded by two holes on the front nine and three holes on the back nine. The course also features 1.5 miles of Chippewa River frontage coming in to play on seven holes, and two other smaller lakes that come into play on three holes.

In the years since, Bucks Run has received numerous awards. In 2004 and 2006, Bucks Run received 4-½ stars out of a possible 5, in Golf Digest's Places to Play. The course also received a Top 50 ranking for “Course Condition”, “Pace of Play”, and “Service”. Bucks Run has hosted three United States Amateur qualifiers, and four Powerbilt Junior Tour events since its opening. The course record from the back set of tees is 64, held by Gary Robinson Jr.

The Bucks Run Clubhouse is a beautiful 18,000 square foot, wooden beam structure.  Within the clubhouse, you will find The Quarry Grill Restaurant, a large banquet hall, lounge, and a veranda.  The building sits just off of Lake Fisher, with panoramic views that cannot be beat.  The entire structure is artfully decorated with a wooded-theme, featuring a large stone fireplace, large wooden beams, and trophy bucks.
