Gaylord Springs Golf Links
About
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.

Beautiful Landscape
The course was really pretty although they fairways were narrow. The greens were really receptive and the pace of play was perfect. It was a beautiful day and we had a wonderful time.
Great course
From the first tee to the last there’s challenge on every hole you have sand traps u can’t see out of u have water on the right and left woods all around and GPS on the cart this place is 1st class
Frustrating
It was a beautiful day for golf. I had a 1:00 pm tee time and the pro shop asked me if I wanted to play earlier. I said no thanks because I wanted to warm up. As soon as I got to the range the starter drives up and tells me I need to go to the 1st tee. I was not too happy. Then it got worse as our threesome was put behind a 5 some!! We had to wait on every shot all day. Who allows a 5 some on a Saturday?? The rangers were out all day but did nothing about it. I'd expect more after playing that much money to play here. Not sure I will be playing here again anytime soon.
Best place to play in middle Tennessee
Springhouse is the best course to play in the Nashville and surrounding areas. Been there several times and the never disappoint with course conditions and friendliness. If I lived a little closer would become a member. Greens are the best in the area , fast and smooth. Great fun layout that’s challenging but really fair for all levels of golf. Try them out and see for yourself
Wonderful course and facility
Gaylord Springs is a fantastic course. Anyone in or visiting Nashville should make it a point to play here. We started at exactly our tee time, and played in just under 4 hours which is pretty great. GPS on the carts is a welcome feature as playing it for the first time makes it really hard to know where to go. The practice facility is wonderful, the clubhouse is spacious and in the middle of everything. I can't say enough about the course!
Can’t wait to play again!
Great course layout... challenging enough for women but definitely not easy! The course design was interesting and beautiful! Greens were amazing, and fast! Course knowledge was definitely an advantage but now I know ... Looking forward to my next round! Maybe I’ll bring my husband next time... maybe not !! Thank you for this great opportunity and for being so accommodating to a woman playing alone (and for my mom who just rode along with me! )
Great well maintained course
I’m not sure I could think of anything negative about this place. It’s what every public course should strive to be.
Golfer friendly course
Great course and the greens and fairways were in great shape!!!
Reunion of Sorts
Gaylord is a lord. Unique links style course. Be accurate or be prepared to pay. Bunkers are dialed if you end up in them soft and nice. Greens are in great shape - Fast and smooth but very true. Nice risk/reward options on front and back. Holes 3, 4, 5 combo are a treat and will keep ya lively. Love the back 9 as well. If you love golf and are in Nashville play here.
Great layout, with lots of challenges.
Played this for the first time and was really impressed. Great facilities and a very friendly and helpful staff. Beautiful course with lots of challenging shots. The course was in great condition, and is well maintained. Greens were lightning fast downhill, but you could go at the hole from below.
All in all a great experience, and we will definitely be back.
Course in great shape!
We have played this course several times and it's always in great shape. The greens roll true and are very receptive. Overall great experience!
