About Hidden River Golf & Casting Club
Hidden River Golf & Casting Club sits in Brutus, in northern Michigan, on a quiet, wooded property marked by stands of towering pines. The Maple River winds through the grounds, giving the resort course a setting distinct from others in the region.
Beyond the golf, the property includes a clubhouse and the Restaurant on the River, whose patio looks out over the flowing water. The course draws day visitors, golf travelers and area residents alike.
