The Brookwood Golf Course, a sprawling 165-acre property located at 5001 Forest Hill Rd, Jackson, MS 39272, offers lush rolling hills, stunning green landscapes, and serene water features, including a picturesque 7-acre lake. Once a hub of activity and prestige as one of Mississippi’s top golf destinations, this 18-hole course is now being prepared for a new chapter in its history.
Currently owned by New Horizon Ministries Inc., a church-based nonprofit in Jackson, Brookwood has seen a storied past, with four different owners and fluctuating periods of success. The ministry acquired the property seven years ago after it was foreclosed on due to criminal activity by the previous owner. While Brookwood served as an event venue in recent years, the course has been closed for golf for three years. Despite keeping the grass maintained, it remains far from its former glory as a fully operational golf course.
Bishop Ronnie Crudup, Senior Pastor of the New Horizon Church International, is overseeing the sale. He also lives in the area and expressed a heartfelt desire to see Brookwood restored to its rightful place in the community. “This course is the central feature of our neighborhood and has immense potential. We want to see golf return to the area,” he emphasized.
Brookwood is now listed for sale at $2 million, with the hope of finding a buyer who can revive its legacy. “The Brookwood Golf Course could once again become a significant destination for the city of Jackson and the Byram community,” the Bishop added, highlighting the area’s openness to development and the possibility of incentives for the right investor.
With its rich history and potential, the course represents a promising opportunity for a seasoned developer to reinvigorate a cherished local landmark. Interested parties can contact Mr. Alfred Haywood at alfred@aehbusinessconsulting.com or rcrudup@nhcms.org for more information.
