About

Holes 18
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.

Absolutely stunning

The staff was amazing. I showed up by myself for my 830 tee time, the threesome I was supposed to play with showed up with 4 people, and the staff moved me up 20 minutes to play with another group with no issues. The staff was amazing. On top of that, this course was phenomenal. Fairways were pure, tee boxes were amazing, the sand in the bunkers was perfect, and the greens were true and rolling phenomenally. On top of that, I played the best round of my life. I will 100% be back.

Great course

This is a fabulous course for any level player. The links style adds a challenge for the more experienced player while being fairly forgiving for the less skilled (such as myself). I would absolutely recommend this course to anyone who asks.

A Must Play Gem!

First time playing this course. I have played or scene a lot of nice course in the US and is is now in my Top 3 nicest course and it was completely underwater in 2010.

Championship quality with super smooth greens, well kept fairways and rough, pro-like bunkers and nice cart paths. Nothing bad to say at all. Worth every penny. Now a new favorite every time I go to the Nashville! Keep up the good work! Can't wait to go play it again!

Fantastic Layout

Not an easy course but I loved it. Undulating greens that are like glass to putt on. The toughest for sure. Pretty straight forward beyond that, some water holes to contend with. I absolutely loved it. I'm a 9 handicap and play in the northwest and the grass was tough for me to get used to. Shot a 91 my first time here, not too bad considering I had 5 double bogeys and two birdies.

Best Course in Greater Nashville!

The golf course is nestled away from the busyness of Nashville and is always in immaculate shape. Friendly and courteous staff and manicured playing conditions easily make this a "must play" when in the Nashville area.

Immaculate!

This course was absolutely immaculate considering it’s a public course! I was exceptionally impressed with how well it was maintained. It was very challenging and by no means a “bland” course. It’s expensive to play it but it’s definitely worth it.
