About

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.

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.

Amazing Country Club Golf to the Public

What an amazing experience. First time I’ve played Gaylord Springs and it’s a must for anyone living in Tennessee or visiting. When we played it was a little damp but the greens were pure and rolled so smooth. The staff was top notch. Incredibly friendly and welcoming and willing to give us advice. The grille has fantastic food. Little slow for pace but that was due to the weather just being so nice. Great experience and would highly recommend a round here!

Awesome layout!

I’d give this course five stars across the board! Our only issue was that it rained heavily the few days prior to us playing and the entire course was very soggy. Absolutely no fault of the facility. Friendly staff!

Fun course. Amazing wildlife.

Great course. Could see it in better shape. But with the flooding they have dealt with and the price, it was a wonderful experience. Be accurate with your irons.

The course itself was fantastic, the only issue I had was I tees off at 7:50 and no food was available before my round. I was told food would be available but it was not. I had to wait until the turn. At the turn I was told the drink cart had been out for a while and I should see it soon. As my group walked off the 17th tee the drink cart finally arrived.

I would have gave the corse an overall 5 if not for those 2 issues which are important to my round of golf. If I was told no food or a drink cart would be available I would have been prepared for that but at last I was told otherwise.
