White Plains Golf Course

Overall good experience. Course conditions were great especially given it had stormed recently. Very well maintained, well designed course. First 4 holes are the most difficult on the course, so warming up beforehand will save some trouble. The staff in the clubhouse were perfect, but the Marshall/ranger keeping pace of play came off a little rude. Followed us for the first two holes, and it felt like she was pestering us the entire time with comments (maybe jokes) on our play that made amongst friends would be funny, but being delivered in a serious tone with a frown felt unwelcoming. My younger brother isn’t well experienced, and hit each water feature on the first two holes. She told us on our second shot of hole one that we’d probably need to let the group behind us play through. We got started 5 mins earlier than our tee time, and not once in the round did we not have to wait on the group ahead of us when teeing off. Overall it turned out fine, but she left a bad impression on us before we even finished the first hole.

Arrived to find out that one hole was closed due to repair. Looked like the majority of the holes had had some repair done recently. Greens were aerated, but still better than some other courses’ greens are at their best. Typically White Plains has the best fairways in the Cookeville area, but they were a little lackluster in places, but I’m very aware that course management is an absolute necessity, and I’m fairly certain that I got a discounted price. Love this course and can’t wait to see what these repairs/improvements look like in the near future. Would recommend this course to anyone

The disappointment starts at check in and only gets worse. No golf is better than this place. Especially with so many great courses nearby.

The staff is always very friendly and courteous. The course is being worked on in some spots but is in pretty good shape. The fairways were being aerated as we were playing.

White Plains is a fun course to play. Sure, the houses just off the fairways can be a little scary, but when you look at the layout, it’s a lot of fun with a number of risk/reward challenges. Played mid-winter after recent rains so the course was moist. Nevertheless it was enjoyable even with a decent zephyr offering more challenge. Friendly staff and the pace of play was very respectable.

The course was in pretty good condition but there were numerous bare patches that gave some pretty mean lies. Could be lack of rain as tee boxes were like concrete also. The employee when I checked in was somewhat arrogant and gave me a bad first impression but at the turn the gentleman in the pro shop was awesome, friendly, and engaging. The first few holes could use some more signage as to where the next tee box is, as it was very confusing, thank goodness the ranger was on patrol and helped us out. Overall it is a nice course and I will probably play there again.
