Diamond In The Rough

This course has vastly improved since I last played it several years ago! Most of the fairways are improved and there are a couple of magnificent views of the bay! Some fairways require improvement along with tee boxes. It appears the greens have been over-seeded. I would definitely recommend playing this course since it is good for the value!

Shaping Up

This course has tremendously improved since last played several years ago! It is evident that the new ownership is making progress on course improvement ! The tee boxes require sprucing up but overall enjoyed the scenic views and the round! Will definitely play this course again!

This course was in pristine condition and the best I have played this year in the county! The green fees are reasonable and not outrageous like other courses in the area! Pace of play was great!

Slow Pace Play

Pace of play was slow since match play groups were playing and slowing up three groups behind them! The match play groups should tee off at 8 am. Very frustrating waiting every shot!
The course conditions were sub par for the fees charged! I understand it is winter; however if green fees are high then the course should be in pristine condition but it wasn’t. Probably won’t play this course again since it is over priced!

Going to lose greens

Course was in rough shape since the winter. Going to lose the greens if not careful. I had to skip a home because maintenance was on the green. Menu was very reasonable!

The course had shotgun start

My tee time was at 7:55. The round was going good until I got to hole 13 and discovered a foursome. They stated a group of 35 or more play on weekly basis. This was unacceptable and was not told about this at check-in. I will never play this course again. DAY ruined! They gave me a $13.50 refund but did not cure the problem!

Rough Conditions

This course was in bad condition. Some of the tee boxes were all mud and very uneven. The fairways on the back nine were being aerated and looked like a cow pasture! Paid too much for green fees! Will never go back!

Hi Timothy, we're sorry to hear your Nashboro experience was less than ideal. It's been a wet spring, but we're working hard to get the course into prime shape for our golfers, hence things like the aeration you saw taking place. If you'd like to speak to someone at the course about your experience, please give us a call at (615) 367-2311. We hope you'll give us another chance soon!

Cow Pasture

This course is not worth $5.00 green fees! It is pitiful that is in such poor condition and a municipal course! The fairways and greens had leaves on them. The staff didn't seem to care. I was paired up with a threesome who only played nine holes and it left min a bind so decided to call it a day! What a waste of time and money!

Course Conditions

Course was in fair conditions as some of the fairways were dirt and tee boxes dirt covered with straw.

Course was extremely challenging and worth the drive. Course of play was fair as foursome in front of us was really slow.

Pro Shop Staff seemed frazzled and overwhelmed upon check in, and was not familiar with golf now amenities such as range balls included with green fees.

The carts were out of gas and staff member suggested I go retrieve my cart from the garage and had me playing as single. He mad no attempt to pair me up with a group until I stressed same to him.

I still will recommend this course.
