The Preserve course at the Binder Park Golf Course opened in 1963 along with the Marsh course. The Natural Course opened in 1999. The Binder Park Golf Courses were designed by Charles Scott.
Located in the far Southeast corner of the City of Battle Creek, the golf course was built on a six hundred acre parcel donated by the Charles Binder family.
