Great Greens, Fun Layout

First time playing the course. Clubhouse, range and practice areas were nice. Starter was very friendly and gave us plenty of good info. Course layout was great with some of the best greens in the area. The only thing this course does wrong is marketing! Take some good pics and show it off!

Rip Off

We played 10 holes and the weather started to roll in so the rest of our round was canceled. We were told no rain check would be offered because we had completed nine holes. I have not encountered a policy like this at any other course. This was truly a rip off. We asked for the generalmanager’s name. And we were refused this information. We were only offered to speak to the golf pro. Will not play this course again even though I am local and I’ve been playing this area for many years.

Played the same day and had a couple drinks in the bar during the delay. Went back out 45 minutes after the delay started and finished our round with an almost empty course.

Beautiful golf course

Staff were friendly and the course was beautiful. The greens were so smooth! A little pricey but had a great time!

Pace of play and unfriendly marshals

The course is nice enough, challenging if you play the back tees. Really detracts from the experience when the marshal (older guy named Don I think) is unnecessarily rude to your group when we are waiting to hit on every tee box. No use for an old grouch just riding along griping at every group, especially when they are obviously not the reason play is behind pace.

Overall, above average for a public course but don’t expect any southern hospitality.

Great Course But Unfortunately Puddles due to the Rain

Days of rain left the fairways with large puddles in spots and overall very wet. The weather obviously is not under course control, but everything they can control (conditions, amenities, staff, etc.) were all perfect.

Best public course in Nashville

Still my favorite course in Nashville. Course does not drain well so expect cart path only if it’s rained. Greens are always good, pace of play was great but it was a Tuesday afternoon.

Poor condition and expensive

Very disappointed in the condition of this course. The greens were very rough and full of marks and dents, and the old pin positions were poorly repaired. The fairways were average at best, with many unfilled divots. Another golfer said there had been some flooding in the course recently which might explain some of the poor conditions, but for an expensive resort course you would expect much better.

The layout is fair, although water is in play on several holes. Bunker conditions were very good, with some deep greenside traps that are best avoided.

The course was dry, but was restricted to cart path only, which really slows the pace of play. The staff was very friendly and helpful, and the pro shop and restaurant are very nice.

This is probably a great course when it is in better condition, but for over $100 you are better to drive to Springfield or Dickson.
