Too expensive

You can play courses comparable to this in this area for considerably less money. The food was expensive and only two choices to eat: hot dog or chicken wrap. I got the wrap and a whiskey and coke for $22 not including a tip. Example: Franklin Bridge GC, for less greens fee you get range balls, lunch, a drink or draft beer and chips all included. Just one example.

Fast greens

Only a couple things I wasn't thrilled about. I hate the use of plastic rings in the cups many times they aren't low enough in the cups. The tee boxes were in need of watering as I use a martini tee and I couldn't get it in the ground far enough. Pin placement in my groups opinion were set up for tournament play not a casual Monday round as most were on the edge of a slope with no way to get the ball close on downhill putts.

Interesting, challenging course.
Greens were fast.
New clubhouse is nice.
New owners are doing some very nice upgrades.
Limited yardage markers so bring your range finder.

Fair and balanced although played with a cold

It’s a very good challenge. 6 par 3’s is the only drawback. That being said, I like Towhee very much. Will be back

Not Worth the Money

Title says it all. This course would be perfect if it was priced at $60-70 max for 18, cart, and a small range ball. The problem is the owners have clearly spent too much capital on the clubhouse - which is worthless to the average golfer who is most likely stopping at a gas station before the round. The course is definitely difficult, and many challenges are presented throughout, but by no means is this course worth $100 all in for a round. I have not regretted paying that much for Gaylord or Hermitage, but I absolutely regret paying the green fees here. Advice to ownership would be to immediately divert all future spend into the course (better hole signage, directional signs). The next time I’m looking to pay up for a nice golf course in Middle TN I’m staying in Nashville.

Great course, worth the money

The renovations here have made the course a nice place to come to. Practice facility is getting better daily, and looks like a huge new putting green being installed. Course played well, right at 4 hours on pace. Greens were in great shape and rolling very nice, fairways were green, rough was deep but playable/good challenge.

Great Course

The course was in great shape and the greens were great. Greens were very fast. Pace of play was good. The price of the round was a little expensive. $100 with range balls. Other than that it was a great experience!

Greens are slick!

Enjoyed the round. Too bad a local twosome held us up from hole #4 through #18. Had to wait on every shot and they would not let us play through. Unfortunate. No one behind us the entire day.
This is what gives golf a bad name. Poor awareness and etiquette.

Towhee Newbie

Overall a nice course but could use some upgrades such as more signage about the hole at the tees. The currently have a very big stone marker at each hole with the hole number but nothing else like hole diagram and yardage. No drinking water other then at 1 & 10 tees. This facility is also a bit overpriced in my opinion by about $20. Nice range.
