Cedar Crest Golf Club
About
Cedar Crest Golf Club in Murfreesboro sprawls across rolling farmland accented with groves of mature trees. The fairways on the front nine are wide open but they become narrower and tree lined on the back nine. The greens play fast and true and they are also well conditioned. There are not many sand traps to contend with but a smattering of elevation changes throughout the golf course cause an occasional uneven lie. Seasoned golfers looking for a challenge won't find it here but what you will find is a relaxed atmosphere that is ideal for a quick, casual round that is player friendly enough for beginners. In addition to the course, Cedar Chest Golf Club offers extensive practice facilities including a driving range and a two-tiered practice green.

Wet but good
Played in the rain but the course was still great. Great condition and good greens even in the wet. Don't sleep on this course. I will be back.
like the course
Golf course was in good condition, greens a little slow but it was HOT so they have to protect the greens.The staff there is really friendly and are glad to get your business. I will play this course again and so will my friends.
A Must Play
Great conditions, friendly staff and a fun layout that has contrasting 9's. Relatively open on the front, much tighter and more accuracy needed on the back nine.
Greens have been in excellent condition every time I play.
If you're hitting the ball well, you'll be able to score nicely. If not, prepare yourself for a higher than average score.
Great day on beautiful course
Cedar Crest course was in great shape!
The best kept course we've play all year!
Although it didn't show on my score card, I had a great time!
Trying to get better each time I play!
Good day at Cedar Crest
The course was in good shape and I appreciate the grounds staff is always improving it.
The course is good, but undergoing repairs
I play here often. Several of the greens fringes are being re-sodded. So, it made it more challenging to chip. The greens were slow, and it was hard to gauge the speed. Still, it was a lot of fun.
condition
Much better condition than last year. Needs a course Marshall, players in front spend way to much time looking for balls, not just there own, not even offering to allow to play through. Overall I like the course and will continue to play there. Course is challenging, but so much that the average golfer cannot enjoy.
Slower than it should be, stay in the fairway.
I like the layout of this course, but it always plays slower than it should. We played on a weekday (Thursday) and by the time we got to number 5 there were 2 foursomes waiting on the tee box. And remember this was not Saturday or Sunday, this was Thursday. I have played there lots and never seen a marshall on the course even on Saturday rounds. The other issue is the rough's are poorly kept. The cerdar trees are nice but if you hit into them, most of the time you can't even go in there to look for your ball with the underbrush. Lots of people do and that adds to the slowness. The fariways on the back 9 are tight, perhaps that is part of the strategy to get people to hit short and straight but us guys who play a few times a year want to hit the driver. If they would clean up the underbrush and enforce some basic rules this course would be great. But unfortauntely everytime I play here lately I regret it.
Nice surprise!
Loved this course. First time playing and really enjoyed it. The cedar trees were beautiful and it was nice to have some green in the winter.
Can't wait to go back!
Good course
The greens were healing from annual maintenance. Yet, we still had a great time playing course. I will play here again. The only draw back was the play was slow on the back nine, which was not the fault of the ouches. We ended up playing behind a slow group.
Great Day
I've always been treated like a club member when I call or just walk in. Thanks to all of your staff, you guys do a great job.
Thanks

Course was in good condition for the winter and greens were in good shape and rolling well. Weather was cool and wet but I enjoyed my round of golf.
Cedar Crest
Cedar Crest is a great course, the staff is professional and courteous. My brother and I are addicted to this place.
Very nice course
The fairways were green and the greens were greener. Excellent considering it has not rained in almost 2 months. The staff is to be commended.
Good for Mid-handicappers
This course is fairly open with accessible greens evens when not in the fairways. The greens are in good condition except for a couple that show aeration marks (month old?). The Bermuda roughs are about 2 - 2 1/2 inches deep but will eat you ball if you're not careful. Overall a good course worth playing again. If you're in a hurry this is not the course for you. The pace of play can be slow at times. I followed a twosome and it took me 4+ hours to play 18.
great course
great course to play and very friendly staff.
Not to bad
Course was nice but the are very slow around the cup
Thank you for the feedback!
Flat course
Slow green, flat everywhere. Easy to play.
Thanks for rating us 4 stars! We're glad you had a good experience. Hope to see you soon!
Pretty good course getting better
Greens very nice. Fairways good.
Ground is hard with lots of rocks but they continue to work on the course and bring in dirt. Will play here again.
Thanks for your review! We are happy to hear that overall you had a good experience with us and that you have noticed our efforts of improving. Looking forward to seeing you again next round!
Thank you so much for the kind words! Please come and see us again soon!
