Gaylord Springs Golf Links

Gaylord is always a great round of golf for me. The course has been very wet this Spring but as soon as it dries out, it will be spectacular. The greens are already in great shape and are very fast. Very fun day and can’t wait to go back.

Course is being worked on to make it even better. The greens are in phenomenal shape with lightening speed. Recommend to everyone, but stay below the hole if you want to score and bring your flat stick game!

Holes 3,4,11 still under bunker renovation.

Course is in good shape. Greens are absolutely perfect!!

This course is always beautiful. No doubt one of the best courses in the Nashville area. I had booked knowing about the course construction on the front 9, expecting to play the back 9, twice. However they’ve opened up 7 of the holes on the front 9 “to get more people out” which translates to “make more money” and you only get to play a total of 16 holes. They said the prices are discounted to represent this, however they’re the same as they were when you used to play two 9’s.

Conditions are beautiful. Worth playing if you don’t mind it being cut short a bit and not knowing what your true 18 hole score would be.

Still using back nine twice for 18 hole round.

Major renovations going on the front nine, should be even more incredible than it was before, I can’t wait. Staff is very accommodating and aware or our concerns about limited holes. Open date was projected for 4/8/20, when I played. It looks a long way from being completed.

IMO, Gaylord Springs will be taking their time to complete this job, and just may do the same renovations on the back when this is done. I say this because the Coronavirus pandemic will keep most golfers away for most of this 2020 year. Not to mention, all of the visitors/golfers that would normally be staying at Gaylord Opryland Hotel, would play golf here.

Definitely still worth playing, use different tees the 2nd time around, conditions were good, greens were excellent as usual.

Played the back 9 twice. Front nine under repair!

Can’t wait to go back and play it all!

Super fast greens!

Course was in best shape I’ve seen for this time of year and all the rain we’ve had. Greens were extremely fast and very smooth even with sand on them. My only complaint is the front 9 was shut down and under construction, but there was no mention of that. Played the back 9 twice. Probably why the price is lower now. But overall I still felt like it was a great value for the money.

Course was very wet due to tons of rain. Course drained pretty well. Front side closed for what I think will be another 30 days at least. This is overall one of the best courses in the Nashville area. Play if possible when you are in the area. Call an ensure the course has all 18 holes open.

The course was under repair and we could only play the back 9 holes. We still had fun and the starter was very nice.

We played in March and the front was closed. The back was in phenomenal condition and despite the amount of shots we hit into the river and lakes we had a great time!

I was not informed that there would only be the back 9 to play (which is the least fun side to play). I could have played a full 18 holes at a different course for half the price. I was extremely disappoint with the course today for the price I paid. Golfnow did a horrible job with informing me about the condition of the course.

The front nine is under construction until mid March. Then they will be fixing up the back nine one hole at a time. Course should be better than ever by mid April. As it was today, the greens are the best around and a lot of fun to play. I like the back nine better than the front and it’s more challenging. The river was very high so it might take on more water but even with being very wet the dormant grass was doing well. My main criticism of this course is the layout. It’s a pseudo links course so I understand the 9 out 9 in philosophy but it really is back and forth in the same direction. With the river being there every hole plays into the wind or down wind. The only exception is #13. There are some good holes but it does make a few seem like mirrors of other holes. 1 and 10. 2 and 11. 3 and 4. Great greens, fun and challenging course that should be in great condition by end of spring.

Great layout, in great shape. Without a doubt the best rolling greens I’ve played in the area.

Everything absolutely spectacular again, path only due to wet weather, but that didn’t matter.

Have played this course 3 or 4 times in the past summers/falls.....The course is always in nice shape but I don't enjoy the boring back and forth layout of the course. It is also unbearably hot down in the valley along the Cumberland river in the summers... The air is stagnant and heat index gets up in the triple digits. I keep coming back because of the ease of access from the Gaylord Hotel, but would way rather play elsewhere just due to the layout & design.

It’s end of December and course was in good shape for time of season. Bunkers raked well, tee boxes/ greens/fairways all in good shape for time of yr. This course isn’t for a beginner unless you go when slow time of the yr. I would recommend this course

Gaylord Springs always provides a challenge even for low handicap golfers. The course is in great shape, the greens are fast and true. Good shots are rewarded and bad ones penalized. For $80 this is as good as most country club courses!

From the practice facilities to the staff to the course itself, it's hard to imagine a better public course experience than Gaylord Springs. Was there on a Friday and though the course had a steady amoujnt of foursomes, the pace of play moved along briskly. Greens were absolutely perfect and fast — just like I like them. GPS on the carts was helpful and accurate. Yes, you pay a little more, but it's not that bad compared to other resort courses I've played.

This was my 4th or 5th time playing Gaylord - and the course has generally been in good shape previously.

However - this was my first time playing during the winter and this experience will likely be enough to keep me from returning.

I understand winter golf is a blessing - and conditions can be rough this late in the year, but Gaylord charging almost the full rate for a tee time, to hit off of questionable fairways at best - only to have the ball rocket off the spray-paint covered greens (which were rolling about an 18) was not a fun experience.

It was not shocking that we were one of only about 10 groups on property.

Again - understand conditions can be rough but adjust your rates accordingly. $84 for a round and range balls is preposterous with the course in that shape.

Excellent layout. The greens were smooth, true and fast. Course was in great fall shape. I have played this course many times and it always plays great and is in great shape.
