This was one of the best public golf experiences I've ever had in the US. Played with family the day after Thanksgiving. Given the cold weather, rains the few days before, and the business, I expected a slow day on a beat-up course. But I couldn't have been more pleased with the condition of the course and the perks. While $120 is higher than I'd like to pay for public golf, when you throw in a beer, burger, and chips, range balls, putting green access, and get us around in under 4 hours on a holiday weekend, I'm thrilled. Given the time of year, the course was in great condition, especially the greens. Challenging and rolling fast, but true. The layout was great and provided a challenge for the better golfers in our group but kept our less experienced golfers entertained as well. Will 100% play here again next time I'm back in the Franklin area. read more

If you call to ask a question, be prepared to sit on-hold indefinitely. The pro shop doesn't want to be at work or do anything their job requires of them. Literally go to anyother course because the fairways and greens are equally as horrendous as their staff. read more

Toxic environment to work. My 16 year old son had a horrible experience working in outdoor services. This was his first job and was so excited about the opportunity.But this gentleman he reported to was the most arrogant, rude and heartless individual who just knew how to crush these young men's confidence. read more

Since we started to play this golf course earlier in the year we witnessed enormous improvements. Every month some good things happen. But, what's the most important for us great people work here and they are all this time on the highest level of customer service. The golf course is challenging enough for average players to enjoy every single time playing here. Greens are well maintained and pretty challenging. River Club membership provides you a free drink, enough to attract you to stay and patronize the "Persimmon Pub" read more

Very nice track. Layout was fair, Course under some repairs due to getting ready for amateur qualifier. Big range. Pro shop staff was friendly, and gals in restaurant were super. I was there visiting but if I lived there, it would be a constant stop to play and practice read more

Horrible. $150+ for a KOA campground experience. Plenty of far better options in the area for the same $ or less. Play on a simulator before playing here! read more

Paid 100$ just to get pushed back 20 minutes and then once we teed off. We got harassed about our pace of play because we were 20 minutes behind and the Marshall didn't have a clue in the world that everything was delayed 20 minutes.They also think they are gonna be able to grow grass along the cart paths with dirt that has rocks in it. Overall didn't appreciate it. Definitely a cliquey golf course that isn't the nicest to the outside crowd. read more

First time playing here in a few years and was NOT impressed. No grass on some tee boxes, fairways were terrible and grassy areas surrounding the course is not maintained at all. On a positive note, pace of play was pretty good! $63.00 gets you 18 holes, free range balls, food & a beverage, so that was a good deal too. read more

Literally the only 18-hole golf course in Franklin proper that is open to the public. The course is in excellent condition with super fast greens that roll really well. The fairways are in great condition too. The grass driving range, pitching and chipping areas, and practice putting green are in fantastic shape despite it being one of the hottest times of the year. Management and ownership have dedicated a good deal of resources to making the practice areas as nice as possible for those who need quality practice time. Practice areas open at sunrise, which is a nice bonus since other places will make you wait till a specific time. The driving range can get full with a wait in the afternoon, but I recommend going in the morning when the sun is not beating down on you so much. Course conditions should be good considering how well take care of the driving range turf. Don't know if local golfers have any etiquette in filling divots and fixing ball marks on the greens. read more

$40 monthly "membership" is long gone, unless you are a friend (or friend of friend) of ownership. Played 8 holes yesterday in 2 hours 55 minutes, not a course ranger to be found (though we saw the snack cart 3 times in our 8 holes). "Williamson County's only public 18 hole course" is code for "We're not even trying, we don't have to. Where else are you going to go?" read more

Had a spectacular time playing 18 and watching the high school championships. After coming out to this course a handful of times I do have a few suggestions. I would love to see a bathroom built (similar to what was done at Nashville National) out on the course but please no port a potty. The only other suggestion is the ice machine tray needs a drain as the gathers water at the bottom. It is really gross when you have to put your cup in to get ice and the bottom of the cup touches the old funky water in the tray. I love the patio area and how it overlooks onto the 18th hole. It's very entertaining and heartbreaking at times. I bet you've collected many balls in that water. Thanks for listening. read more

Worst golf experience I've ever had. I showed up and the starters treated my friends and I like we were a bunch of rowdy teenagers -- this was on the first tee before we'd even talked to them or hit a ball. We are 30 years old by the way.. weren't even drinking. I wish I was leaving context out but I'm not. The amount of disrespect from this staff is a disgrace. I just returned from serving in the Middle East less than a month ago. I was just trying to have a nice round of golf with some close friends. I paid $45 for nine holes and rented clubs for $40. Upon teeing off hole 1, I realized my 5-iron was left handed (I am a right handed golfer and rented RIGHT HANDED CLUBS) after that shot I realized 5 out of my 12 clubs were right handed. A second starter approached us on hole 2's green, we asked about replacing the clubs. He denied us in a condescending tone. I don't play this card but after the seven months of crap I've been through, I can't believe I serve America so people can act this privileged. It's not even a 5 star course so what gives? Get off your high horse and let people chill, and play golf. How hard is that?? And give people what they pay for in example: the proper clubs to play if they dish out the money. Thanks for the worst golf experience I've had in 15 years of playing. Hope nobody tops it. The starters are trash individuals. Fire them. This course is trash. Do not play here. Do yourself a favor and go somewhere better for less money. read more

Favorite place to play golf in the county. They have a good membership deal with under $40 monthly dues to get pretty inexpensive golf, free range use (2 buckets per day), pro shop discounts, and more. Great range, ok practice green, limited short game practice space but it's got the basics covered. Good mix of challenge and fun with consistently good course conditions. The management is new in 2019 and taking really great care of the course. They stay pretty busy but I've still played 3 hour rounds with some 4-4.5 hour rounds here and there. read more

They advertise pace of play maintained by their marshals but that was NOT the case for me. I had to follow two kids walking and couldn't finish my round. read more

So I never write bad reviews, but I must! I attempted to play this course last Friday. I got to the course gathered my things, and was early because I was eager to play. I walked in the clubhouse asked if I could start early, and was told no but he did give me some free range balls. I grabbed a used cart because none were available, and at that moment, I should have known my day would be bad! I hopped in a used cart, wiped it down because (COVID) and took off. After the range I started my round at 5:40 after 30 minutes I couldn't see a thing. Not to mention the group in front of me was holding me up and the group in front of them were doing the same. It was packed! I hate a money grab and this course got me. I called today and asked if I could come play my 14 holes I never got a chance to play and of course I can't. I will never, ever, ever, as long as I live walk foot on this course. For many reasons but the main one is customer service was terrible, and there are better courses, wayyy better in the area. I hope this helps someone not get there money taken! DON'T DO THE LATE TEE TIME. read more

12:00 tee time, by 2:00 had only played 7 holes. On a weekday. Ridiculous. Price is higher than comparable public courses. It's always been crowded and without ranger help, but that's my last try. Won't be back. read more
