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.

Greens were in great shape!

Tight but fair! Greens were well maintained and extremely visible as they were very green and not allowed to brown this time of year.

Have been playing this course since it opened.

We have always enjoyed Cedar Crest but the $40.00 weekend rate is too high for the conditions and we always choose a cheaper option. Paying 28 through Golf Now is fair and we will continue to play the course on the weekends at that rate.

Very Unfriendly Staff Pro Shop!!

Told me over the phone to come over and they could work me in, no problem she said. Once I arrived, was told very rudely by a short guy with a beard "we can't work you in". No apology, were sorry nothing. I just grabbed my bag and left. This was a Friday afternoon, nobody was on either tee (#1 or #10). I played every course around the are and every time I go to Cedar Crest it is a bad experience.

You did not have a tee time so your 1 star rating is irrelevant.

Super nice course,excellent value

I love this course,super close to home,always in good shape,and a great staff. Very good lay out for a hacker like me on the front, some tight fairways on the back. My favorite hole is number nine,nice pond with a up-hill second shoot. All in all a great course for a good price. If your in the Boro check it out.

The course fairways are burnt, hard to hit ball off fairways. If you hit a good drive the ball would bounce off line and leave you in trouble

Bent Greens, overwatered. Fairways under watered. Rough pitiful.

There are better courses around Nashville for the money. I am willing to bet all of them are. Took an hour to play the front and two 1/2 to play the back. Have a feeling that the regulars were allowed to tee off on the back side and they spend their time looking for their golf balls and 15 more. Won't be back.

Good but not great

Nice country course. The folks that run the place are nice, but there is not enough help when the place is busy. There was a group a few holes ahead of us that were really slow.. they were 2 holes behind, and I mean 2 Full, empty holes in front of them... and there was no ranger to speed up play.. We left after 15 holes (4 hours 15 minutes) because we had plans... However, the place is in good condition, and the layout is worth the price.

I would play again, if I knew I had 5 hours or more to devote to the round.

Fun golf course in good condition.

This was my first round on this course. We played after 2 PM on Sunday and were given a great rate. The course had facilitated a big tournament earlier. We went out as a twosome and were behind two other twosomes, which were behind a really slow foursome. The foursome let one of the twosomes play through but it didn't help much. There were no marshals anywhere to help so we were waiting on every shot. At the turn, the only person we saw was the girl at the food stand. Aside from the slow pace of play, we enjoyed the course which was in good condition. The greens were a bit slower than I like but they rolled well and were consistent. I like this course and will likely go back and would recommend you try it.
