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.

Golfer Reviews
Excellent conditions considering time of year & recent weather
1st time Playing the course. I played on the morning before flying back to the UK. The welcome in the pro shop was excellent. Checking in, renting clubs, facility to leave my travel bags in safe storage and use of the shower facilities afterwards was seamless. Bar staff excellent.
The course was in excellent condition considering the recent rain and Storm. The greens in particular were running true and fast. Even though some holes look as if it’s wide open, you need to put yourself in the right position off the tee so approach shots give you a good look at the flag.
Very impressed and would highly recommend and play again.
It’s the winter what do you expect
Winter conditions are expected so 2 holes are modified for play while they make the amendments but this was 2 rounds in a row where I had to have my cart traded out due to malfunction. Good news though, they are getting all NEW carts on 3/8/23. Can’t wait to go back I normally love this course.
Winter conditions
Very good layout, winter conditions with dormant grass, look forward to playing in the summer!
Challenging but fair
Played in slightly chilly and windy conditions. I like the layout, you are definitely rewarded for hitting it in the fairway but don’t often hit it out of play if you’re a little crooked. The greens were in very good shape considering the time of year. Nice variety of holes. Will definitely return.
Go play this gem
Winter rates made the wet conditions worth it. Greens were amazing for this time of year… rolled true and Stimped 10-11 in my opinion. The summer rates are higher but course would be perfect then. Better experience than Hermitage due to the staff friendliness for less money!
Nice long adventurous course
Really nice championship course. The staff was nice. And the people i golfed with was nice. Get ready for a challenge if you haven't been to Gaylord Springs. The greens are tricky to.
Fun Round in the Fall
We played the course on a cloudy, overcast day. There were not a lot of people playing, so our pace was just fine. The staff were very friendly, and even made recommendations for dinner at the Opry. The course was challenging, but not too difficult. The fairways are wide, but trouble does exist on the holes near the river. I did find the river with one shot. Also, water comes into play on many of the holes which makes the views pretty amazing. It was our fist time playing in the Nashville area, and we will play again in the future if returning to the area.
