Type Resort/Public
Style Links
Par 72
Length 6842 yards
Slope 133
Rating 73.1

The Cumberland River gave birth to the Scottish links-style Gaylord Springs Golf Links, a par-72 golf course that provides 18 testing holes that border limestone bluffs and wetlands protected by the feds. The golf course, designed by the former U.S. Open and PGA Champion Larry Nelson, has collected several distinctions over its days.

The big draw on the Gaylord Springs Golf Links is the signature fourth hole, home to the hundred-plus-year-old springhouse that gives the golf course its name.

After a round on the Gaylord Springs Golf Links, head back to the 43,000-square-foot antebellum-style clubhouse to shop, dine, and take in the views of the golf course.

Greens were recently aerated and covered in sand. Not worth the cost when they’re like that.

Golf near the Grand Ole Opry- Fantastic Links

I recently played Gaylord Springs GC which is near the Grand Ole Opry and the Massive Gaylord Hotel.

The course was a perfect match to these grand attractions.

It is a long links course with exciting golf holes. The par 3s are fun to play being tucked behind water with varying elevations.

Be prepared to hit your driver on this course and the greens are of championship caliber .

Play it when in Nashville , it’s worth the time and money!

The staff is super helpful and friendly!

I’m loved the experience.

Great course to play if you really love playing the game.

It was my first time on this course and I thought it was a really good course to play. Yes, I had my ups and downs but nonetheless I enjoyed every bit of the time I spent there on the course. I will be back in that area in the months to come, and I so look forward to playing Gaylord again. Wonderful course! And the people were stellar as well!
