Back
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.

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.
Short course, narrow fairways
Played on a Sunday morning. No problem with GolfNow time, I was able to go off early and many groups allowed me to play through.
This is a decent layout, typical municipal course maintained. Some bare spots (pictured), but overall I enjoyed the game and would return.
Best bang for buck
Found this course on Golf Now. Have been twice now and will definitely be back.
Only complaint is they could space out tee times a bit. We were really backed up yesterday.
Getting closer and closer to FIVE star rating
Yup the guys are still at it cutting down trees. Like the way they put the logs around the water throughout course. Now the weeds are growing where the brush was cut, never ending battle men!
Good job
Serena the best, hooked up w Sam, he had to go to work in Greenville after 9 holes, nice chap.
Soooo cheap w golfnow
