Cheekwood Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Situated in the heart of Franklin, the Cheekwood Golf Club (formerly known as Fairways on Spencer Creek) is conveniently located only 20 minutes south of Nashville. This popular layout has been ranked as one of the top 10 nine-hole golf courses in Tennessee. Despite being a shorter course, the layout still offers several holes with water hazards and sand bunkers. The tight fairways and rolling terrain also require a fair amount of accuracy. The course has enough challenges as well as enough variety throughout the holes to make it a fun round for more skilled players, which also makes it a great place for beginners to get some practice. Being that the round is usually quick, the golf course is a popular choice for golfers looking to get in a quick round after work.

Great Place
Great place. Very friendly people. Was playing from out of town and needed rental clubs. They were very accommodating. Perfect 9 hole course for a quick round of golf while on vacation in Nashville. (Only about 20-25 minutes out of the city.)
Great course for beginners
It was a great course for me, just starting up trying to get serious. The pace of play was somewhat average, due to the fact that most people were beginners or just not great, in both the pods in front and behind ours. They might want to add people to the front of the first hole to make sure things get moving on time, as we didn’t start until 20 minutes or so after our tee time, which may be normal, I am a beginner so I don’t know.
Great Short Course
First time playing and will play again. Surprisingly tight fairways for an executive course but very enjoyable. There’s quite the master plan for revamping this little hidden course but the easiest improvement they could make would be a water cooler or two. Played on a very hot day and considered drinking out of the pond at one point because there was no water and no beverage cart circulating. The “clubhouse” is sparse as far as food but there is enough to say they offer it. Hotdogs on the gas station roller were lunch, there were pre-made vending machine sandwiches for those who are really brave. Everyone was friendly, great staff, all very helpful.
Fun 9 Holes
Fun 9 holes and great value. Fairways were in good shape. Shoot tee-to-green was in really good shape. Will come back soon
