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.

Our Nine Hole Go To

My wife and I have been playing at Cheekwood since summer time. It is a beautiful little course and very well maintained. As beginners we enjoy the fact that the course is on the short side. We can typically get around in less than 2 hours. If your looking for a quick round on a great course Cheekwood is a great choice.

Slow play but fun

Had a 3 pm tee time and didn’t tee off until 3:40 pm. Huge back up at first tee. Staff was very accommodating to refund for holes not played but still frustrating when you want to get 9 holes in and can’t because of overbooking. The price is expensive for pace and quality. Greens were in rough shape. About same price to play 18 holes of top rated public courses area. You can get a much better value at other courses in the area.

Great course

You know it's a well designed course when it's all par 4's and 5's and you still have to use all of the clubs in the bags. Well kept course except drainage on hole 3 but if you land on the green, it won't be an issue.

If it were 18 holes, I was on pace to beat my personal best by 3.

Great for beginners

Fairly open and really short golf course. Great for couples. I took my wife out and it was about her 5th time playing, she loved it because it was only 9 holes and she could hit tee to green on all the par 3s. Would highly recommend for any newer golfer, especially if you have trouble with distance or getting the ball in the air! Not a great course for low handicappers.

Course was short but interesting

Course grass was in very nice shape despite a few muddy area due to all the rain in the last 10 days. Greens were a little slow but true. Personel all around the course were very nice. It was a fun little course to play.
