Located 10 minutes from Nashville International Airport and 5 minutes from Gaylord Opryland Resort. Gaylord Springs, designed by US Open and PGA champion Larry Nelson, offers challenges for golfers of any skill level. The links-style course demands accuracy to stay clear of the deep bunkers, water hazards and rolling grass mounds but also requires creativity and a soft touch around the undulating, MiniVerde Bermuda grass greens. The course is enhanced by federally protected wetlands. At the signature fourth hole, you'll find the century-old springhouse from which the club derived its name. Carved from the banks of the meandering Cumberland River and bordered by limestone bluffs and wetlands, Gaylord Springs Golf Links will test and enthuse you from the moment you tee off until you pull your ball from the cup.
