Brookside Golf Course sits in a quiet country setting among the gently rolling hills and brooks of Gowen, Michigan. The course has been locally owned and operated for more than 60 years.
The layout plays through peaceful surroundings, with a meandering stream crossing several holes and a handful of strategically placed bunkers adding interest. It is approachable enough for beginners while still presenting some challenge.
The property includes a recently redesigned clubhouse, and memberships are available.
