Links golf by the river

From the practice facilities to the staff to the course itself, it's hard to imagine a better public course experience than Gaylord Springs. Was there on a Friday and though the course had a steady amoujnt of foursomes, the pace of play moved along briskly. Greens were absolutely perfect and fast — just like I like them. GPS on the carts was helpful and accurate. Yes, you pay a little more, but it's not that bad compared to other resort courses I've played.

Not worth the price tag

This was my 4th or 5th time playing Gaylord - and the course has generally been in good shape previously.

However - this was my first time playing during the winter and this experience will likely be enough to keep me from returning.

I understand winter golf is a blessing - and conditions can be rough this late in the year, but Gaylord charging almost the full rate for a tee time, to hit off of questionable fairways at best - only to have the ball rocket off the spray-paint covered greens (which were rolling about an 18) was not a fun experience.

It was not shocking that we were one of only about 10 groups on property.

Again - understand conditions can be rough but adjust your rates accordingly. $84 for a round and range balls is preposterous with the course in that shape.

Gaylord Sorings

Excellent layout. The greens were smooth, true and fast. Course was in great fall shape. I have played this course many times and it always plays great and is in great shape.

Reviews said good greens, so I had to see for myself

I was in Nashville for the weekend and wanted to golf before I flew home. I did some research in the are and the reviews about the greens are what brought me to the course. These greens are amazing better than some country clubs in California for sure, true and super quick. I mean super quick downhill and decent uphill. Fast, firm but held well. If you want to play a course that has challenging greens, then you need to visit this place. The layout isn't too hard, even from the tips. The difficulty lies in the green speeds. They have some moguls that remind me of a Pete DYE course. If I ever go back to visit Nashville, this will be on my list.

Great Conditions

The fastest greens I have ever played. The layout is varied and interesting. It was cart path only and the group in front of us was extremely slow and there was no marshal to be found. Play it on a weekday.

This was our first time playing this course, and conditions were excellent. Greens are challenging but roll true. We would play again.

Great course, but difficult

Came from out of town, played on a very hot and humid day. Rented clubs, top of the line, brand new clubs for myself and wife, a lefty. Staff could not have been nicer.

Links style course, so you had good and bad bounces and luck plays a big part. Tons of bunkers and greens were perfect, but huge, mean and fast. Like missing 2’ putt fast.

Overall, loved the course, just not the heat and my score

Great course for a fun round!

This course is challenging but fair! Greens are in great shape and quick. Entire course is in great shape. A very fun layout and a great place to make your first career hole in one (which I did on #13).

Great Condition

Well Maintained course for being public. I had a 7:40 Tee Time and never had to wait to hit a ball. The carts have gps and you can order food through it as well. It was about $80 after all the golf now fees but well worth it.

Not a true links course, but completely legit!

This place is mint. Green are perfect and hole set ups are awesome. Best round I’ve played since Spy Glass. Thank you for having us!

My Favorite Course Yet!

I played here recently and absolutely loved everything about this course. When you pull in the staff is there to help get your clubs out and offer range balls. The practice facility is one of the best I have ever seen. The course condition overall were incredible. Undulating fairways, fast greens, wind, and lots of water is what this course has to offer. The best part is, it is less than fifteen minutes away from the airport! I would definitely recommend this course to anyone in the area.

New policy - no range balls with expensive green fee rates. Very disappointed in that. Course is very nice.
