About
Nestled in the gently rolling hills of Gowen, Brookside Golf Course has a tranquil, peaceful location that is ideal for a round of golf. The course opened in 1963 and has been locally owned and operated ever since. The golf course measures to a manageable 6,100 yards from the back tees, a seemingly short course by modern standards. Though it may not be what you're looking for if you want a truly formidable championship course but it provides a good and affordable round of practice. The front nine is slightly less demanding than the back. Overall Brookside Golf Course is gentle enough for beginners with a few strategically placed bunkers to make it challenging. There is also a meandering stream that wanders across a few of the holes.

Beautiful course
Beautiful fall Saturday afternoon
Serena and her dad doing a great job here you caught a great deal again on GolfNow, which does not really help the course unfortunately but helps our pocketbook. We always try to buy something i.e. dynamite bloody Mary or something. A lot of people must’ve been out watching the football games cause it wasn’t that busy course conditions were good. Greens were blown off, but unfortunately could use a little bit better leaf removal around the greens and on the fairways here and there I found several lost balls and lost a couple myself but other than that they’ve done a tremendous job here over the years. Thank you again, Serena, and Mr. Schroer
Fun course
Course is in pretty good shape. I've been told it's a lot better than before.
Greens were in great shape and challenging.
Staff was great, maintenance crew was very attentive, they would stop working and move off the fairway so not to distract you.
Great Course
Course was overall in great shape.
They are working on making improvements around the course that are in progress so messy in areas but that shows there effort in making the needed improvements.
Great course and good people!
Family friendly
Love that everyone is so nice and it’s so family friendly! They are doing so many beautiful upgrades with their landscaping, it looks great!
Great course!
For so early in the season, the course was in great condition. The staff is very friendly and accommodating
Serena the best manager!
Mr Shroeder and his crew continue upgrades and constant playability improvements every visit. Daughter Serena is a peach and very friendly in the clubhouse.
I’m raising overall rating to a 5 star simply for the hands on work done here in the last couple years. Waste areas are cleaned up, sand traps filled, tee boxes redone and enhanced for more challenge and the use of logs from much tree trimming has been made into a cosmetic look I’ve not seen at any other course.
There is always room for improvement at any course but I feel the work done here has far surpassed any other in west Michigan. Coupled with very reasonable rates and character of the layout it’s a lot of fun and the wife loves it here. Best , biggest Bloody Mary ever at a course.
Keep up the great work!!
Always improving
Just a fun course with tons of character and always improving and cleaning out the wooded areas for better playability and aesthetic ‘s.
Best bloody Mary’s 32oz. Owner and daughter/ manager absolute best!
Course has a few challenges for a beginner.
Coures is great but pin location for a average golfers were challenging.
