Towhee New Club House in 2 weeks

Beautiful new club house is built and ready to open in 2 weeks. Looking forward to this next time we play. The course has a little bit of a funky layout which is not player friendly due to lack of signs. 10 and 18 can be missed, this affecting pace of play, due to no signs. (There was a sign for 18 made with paper and a marker but still could be missed by new players.

The course- it is one of the best courses I’ve played in the area. Greens are beautiful and Fast. Carries over multiple creeks adds to the difficulty. Great Marshall keeps pace of play moving and is professional. I’ll be back to play again and enjoy the new club house.

Very good course, will be excellent when construction finished.

I’m nervous about the new houses going up, but the course and greens are in really good shape. Good layout.

Cincy Kid

This course was a pleasant surprise. The course has a great layout and the truest putting surface I have been on this year.

The new ownership has just built a new clubhouse which will be opening soon.

My only complaint was that the greens did not hold shots very well.

I play all over Nashville and this public course has jumped into my top 5 with Gaylord Springs, Hermitage, Greystone, Legacy and now The Towhee Club.

Thanks for a great course. I will definitely be back.

Great Course, too expensive l!

I personally love this Palmer design, but since the new ownership the price’s have gotten ridiculous. $7.38 for a bucket of 20 golf balls isn’t great. The greens were perfect and the fairways were in great shape but the only reason I could afford to play here was a coupon on a hot deal.. and it was still a $40 round, the pace of play was terrible for a Monday afternoon 4:40

Great greens.

Greens in best shape I’ve ever seen there. Used to be bent grass that burned out in summer. They were replaced with a Bermuda and even this early in year they are great. Getting a true roll.

New clubhouse and rec area are almost done so the awkward parking and portable toilets should soon be gone. Getting close.

Course playing easier with removal of some difficult traps.. you can now run the ball on certain greens without having to drop a fairway wood in over a trap and hold the green.

Overpriced course

This course is way overpriced. First and last time played this course. 8 dollars for warm up bucket of range for 20-25 balls.

Coming along

Course will be really good when all of the construction is complete. Greens were good. Fairway and tee boxes are coming along. No clubhouse and porta-potty for a bathroom. Would like to see a reduced rate during construction, but I understand. Until complete, there are better options for a $70. Very promising and will compete with some of the better public courses once complete.

Comparable to Gaylord…

In price only! Greens good. Fairways hard to find grass sometimes…surely this will improve with warmer weather).. Close to home, but for a course trying to re-establish itself…you cant start @premium course prices! I went because i played late enough where price was ONLY $60 AFTER 3! With more time, despite being 5 min away from this course, i will drive 45 to Greystone or even Gaylord. They’re doing some great things to improve, but they cant ask us to pay for all the improvements before theyre even done!

Overpriced

Hardly any grass on the fairways. Mostly packed down mud. Greens were decent for this time of year. I know it is early Spring and didn’t expect the course to be in top shape but I feel that their rates should be discounted.

Rain held off!

Course was in a lot better shape than in the past. Lots of money being put into course. Logically the cost per round has gone up. I think it’s fair because the greens (even in March) we’re very nice and so was the rest of the course. They cleaned up a lot of the excessive foliage and brush and it looks great. Fellow golfers please, please,please fix your pitch marks and replace/ fill your divots. Once the pro shop and pavilion open up it’s gonna be a gem!!
