Tennessee got hit hard with the weather !!!

I seems that all the courses in Nashville are struggling with their fairways. Played the course before and it was in excellent condition.

Excessive damage

Course was in very poor condition,fairways washed away,dirt in many areas.bunkers washed away and had not been raked.The tough winter has taken a toll on this course,price should be reduced until repaired and probably not a bad idea to let golfers know of condition when booking T-time before paying price asked.

Golf 4/27/14

Course is in pretty poor shape. Fairways are bare, traps are not maintained, greens were in decent condition but slow. They were cut in the morning and I was told they sometimes don't cut the greens for days.

Good Value

Even with the aeration a couple of weeks ago, the greens were not in terrible shape. Some added sand to the greenside bunkers would be also be welcome. However, the tee boxes and fairways were in very good shape considering the winter we have had.

disappointed

Course has definitely been affected by the harsh winter for this area. Most of the fairways were bare. I expected dormant Bermuda but not bare ground. Many of the sand traps were not raked. Looked like many golfers needed a course in etiquette. Greens had been aerated last week and were not puttable. Never saw aeration with holes that large. Also looked like they did not roll the greens afterward or water to promote growth.

Excellent golf course

This was my first round here and its now one of my favorite courses I've played in Nashville. Not too far away, definitely worth the drive from anywhere in the area! I went on a Wednesday around noon and didnt have to wait on anybody the entire round. Got done in 2 hours 45 minutes! The only reason I choose 4 of 5 stars on some of the subjects is because its March and the grass is still dormant. I CANT WAIT to come play this course again when the grass is greener and its a little warmer. The greens run great, not super fast but definitely not slow and are very smooth. The course layout was awesome too:) I highly recommend this course to people who like courses that are more exciting and interesting than your average municipal course.

Dormant with potential

Unfortunately I played this course during its dormant stage but I can see how great it will be as the weather warms up. I do not recommend renting clubs. The bag I got was a mixed set of sub-par clubs and did not have a 6, 8, or pitching wedge in it. I had a lot of shots that were in-between what clubs were in the bag.

Good value with GolfNow at King's Creek

Got a great rate on a last minute tee time. The course was in good condition and the greens rolled very true. There were some difficult holes and some easy ones but overall a good track. Better golfers should play it from one of the two sets of back tees. Water in the form of creeks and lakes and a fair number of shots over them. There are also bunkers in play but these obstacles make golf a good challenge at this course.

Winter greens are great

The best part of Kings Creek in winter is that the greens stay green! Since they're not Bermuda they don't go dormant and turn into dinner plates for holding shots or putting.

Course is in very good condition. Pace of play is normally good but occasionally slow. Greens are better than most in the Nashville area.

great layout

Guys in pro shop was helpful and got me on the course early. The course has a nice mix of sort and long holes with some that are unique like #9. Greens rolled great. Only bad thing I seen is they don't have a chipping/pitching green only a range and putting green to warm up on.

Nice course with very friendly starters and marshals.

The fairways were fine, but the greens needed attention. There were large divots that had not been repaired. Not necessarily the golf course's fault, but this caused the ball to stop at times on the greens. People were not taking time to repair the greens apparently. The greens were very fast on this day.

Not a bad course if you get a deal through golfnow. I would NOT pay the full price that they ask for a round of golf at this place.

Excellent course, great condition, lots of bunkers but well maintained

Enjoyed my round, first time I've played this course and will return. Greens are undulating and a challenge. The only thing this course needs is yardage markers, they are few and far between, this needs to be addressed asap. Otherwise an excellent experience.
