Cheekwood Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Situated in the heart of Franklin, the Cheekwood Golf Club (formerly known as Fairways on Spencer Creek) is conveniently located only 20 minutes south of Nashville. This popular layout has been ranked as one of the top 10 nine-hole golf courses in Tennessee. Despite being a shorter course, the layout still offers several holes with water hazards and sand bunkers. The tight fairways and rolling terrain also require a fair amount of accuracy. The course has enough challenges as well as enough variety throughout the holes to make it a fun round for more skilled players, which also makes it a great place for beginners to get some practice. Being that the round is usually quick, the golf course is a popular choice for golfers looking to get in a quick round after work.

Getting better
Other than the first green being really bad the rest of the course is much better than the last time I played. Not bad for a 9 hole executive type course especially from the back tees. I played very early so pace of play wasn’t an issue but I can see where it might be later in the day. Friendly staff.
Fun Experience
Took my 20 year old son golfing for the first time and had a great time. Pace of play was conducive to the lack of skill so we didn’t feel pressured all afternoon, good times.
Sneaky good course
I thought this course was exceptional. Sadly I couldn’t find many fairways off the tee but they looked great and greens are sneaky fast as well. I thought the staff was incredible and the starter was great. Yes, the the clubhouse was ran by younger people but the two girls that helped me were awesome. A recent comment suggested that the people running this place were hands off and that’s not the case. Well done everyone I cannot wait to come back!
Run by Children...caveat emptor
For a tucked away neighborhood course, it was a nice course. Some of the greens were in bad shape but most were good. My issue is with the operation of the course. It’s all children running it (16-22 year olds). I saw no pro, no starter, no ranger. Now, the kids I interacted with were all respectful and nice. I liked them. But the scene had a very hands off feel. And I thought I would like that until the clown playing behind our twosome began driving his ball into us. On three consecutive holes! This place invites that element obviously. No rules. Pay a little more and go where adults are running things.
Good value course!
The course will get better as the Bermuda grass matures. Fun course! Best value around!
Ride along
My wife wanted to ride along, not play. There was a charge of $7. In the past they did not charge.
It’s a fun executive 9.
The course starter and all around employee
Brenda is a great asset for Cheekwood.
Great Staff
We played today and it was great. The staff was doing a real good job with logistics under our corona virus situation..
Great place to play
Considering it’s early in the year, greens were a little rough, needed some work. But the course was great and always fun place to play. Franklin needs to let them expand to 18 holes.
I am a fan of this course
Creekwood which used to be Spencer Creek is a fun 9 hole course. I have played here many times over the years. It is close to my home and work so I love to get out late afternoons and play. The staff is friendly and outgoing.
Perfect way to end the day
Loved this golf course. The staff was so nice. Perfect way to end the day after work.
Love this course.
Great for the price. Some of the greens need some work, but for for $12 for 9 holes you can’t beat it.
Worst course ever played
The t box is as hard as concrete. Solo hitters playing with two balls, and delaying time. Took over 2 1/2 hours to play 9 due to slow players holding everyone up. If you want your wife to come watch, expect to pay $8.50 for her to sit in the cart “ride along.” The course is over priced considering the condition and maintenance. DO NOT GO HERE unless you want to be irritated the whole time. If I could rate this course 1-10 I rate it at a 3!
Fun Course
The staff is so friendly and the course is just fun to play! It’s only 9 holes but a lot of time that’s all we have time for. You can book tee times on line which is easy!
