Slow and overpriced

Was literally a 5 hour round. There was a single in front of us and after 2 holes he started playing with us as a 5-some. Even as a 5-some we waited at every single tee box. Course is also in brutal shape because of all the rain. They'll still charge you $90 though

Nice course, but…

Simply give it up. Winter time in Tennessee is really hard on the golf courses. Thank goodness we got a deal through golf now. We only paid about half of what the normal fee was. Let’s just say that the course was half of its potential. Literally. When we got there, we were told that we could not play the back nine. Grrr. And the front nine was pretty slushy. So we stopped at the restaurant and bar before we played the first half again. Our bar lady was very very friendly and fun. And we made the most of what we had. So perhaps we will wait till summer before we come back.

Winter golf?

Man, it is the wrong time of the year to try to play golf in many Nashville courses.

iBook on GolfNow. So I didn’t realize The back nine is not open from nine was in bad shape called with the frost and the mud and the water. Can you Bing the driving range we as closed.

Call before you book.

Disappointed with Golf Now!!!

Due to unexpected rain and weather we were not able to play. The course was virtually closed to play and I sent 2 emails to Golf Now seeking a credit on future play. No response!!! I read and understand the 24 hr cancellation policy but there is always and exception. The course it self is one of my favorites and as a result of the lack of feedback from Golf Now I will never use Golf Now again and will ensure that all my friends don’t either. Very unprofessional.

Great Bones

It was winter golf with rain but in the mid 60s. This course has great bones with lots of mounds and undulations. The greens were fast considering the rain. The clubhouse is wonderful too!

Great Comeback

Towhee is back!

Have always liked this course due to the layout. With course renovation the greens are best in middle Tn.

A tad expensive, but worth playing especially if you can get a hot deal!

Holes

Get rid of the cup liners and tamp down the area around the hole after installing a new hole. It always seems like the holes are domed.

Excellent Shake for Cold Weather

First time playing this course. Live in Franklin and most courses here are too expensive for the condition they are in. Worth the drive for the value Towhee provides.

There was a whole lot of waiting on the front 9 and then a foursome skipped in front of us on 16/17 which held my buddy and me up and kept us from being able to play 18. Not the courses fault but clearly bad etiquette from that group who were not going to be able to finish either way and were not being slowed down by us as we pulled up to 18 just as they were teeing off.

Too expensive

You can play courses comparable to this in this area for considerably less money. The food was expensive and only two choices to eat: hot dog or chicken wrap. I got the wrap and a whiskey and coke for $22 not including a tip. Example: Franklin Bridge GC, for less greens fee you get range balls, lunch, a drink or draft beer and chips all included. Just one example.

Fast greens

Only a couple things I wasn't thrilled about. I hate the use of plastic rings in the cups many times they aren't low enough in the cups. The tee boxes were in need of watering as I use a martini tee and I couldn't get it in the ground far enough. Pin placement in my groups opinion were set up for tournament play not a casual Monday round as most were on the edge of a slope with no way to get the ball close on downhill putts.

Course is in good condition but not worth the price of $69.

Other courses in the area are just as good for $20-$30 less. And the food is a lot cheaper. I got a chicken wrap and a whiskey and coke and was $22 before tip. Guess they are trying to pay for the new clubhouse. Will not play again unless for a deal.

Interesting, challenging course.

Greens were fast.

New clubhouse is nice.

New owners are doing some very nice upgrades.

Limited yardage markers so bring your range finder.
