Hole By Hole Layout
Designed by US Open and PGA champion Larry Nelson the Cumberland River, our Scottish links-style, par-72 layout offers 18 challenging holes bordered by limestone bluffs. The course is enhanced by federally protected wetlands.
Gaylord Springs has earned its place among the nation's best. The course has won numerous awards throughout the years including being voted one of the Best Courses You Can Play by GolfWeek. At the signature fourth hole, you'll find the century-old springhouse from which the club derived its name.

 |
#1 HOLE 551 Yard Par 5 An immediate eagle opportunity following a good tee shot to a wide and generous fairway. |
 |
#2 HOLE Generally into the wind, players must negotiate a bunker 220 yards off the tee. Steep grass bunkers guard the green for second shots that don't make it to the green. |
 |
#3 HOLE |
 |
#4 HOLE 400 Yards Par 4 The signature hole with a real springhouse requires an accurate lay-up tee shot to set up a short-iron approach across the water to a sloped green. |
 |
#5 HOLE 454 Yard Par 4 This fairway is divided by a huge lake providing options off the tee, resulting in either a short-iron from the left or a mid-iron from the right approach. |
 |
#6 HOLE 535 Yards Par 5 Another reachable par 5 with a good tee shot, with water on the right. The green is guarded by a greenside bunker on the right and mounds on the left. |
 |
#7 HOLE 466 Yards Par 4 A straight-ahead par 4 that requires a mid-iron approach to a slightly elevated green, well guarded by sand and mounds. |
 |
#8 HOLE 182 Yards Par 3 Depending on the pin placement, water may come into play from the tee. Accuracy is a premium here because this green is the most heavily bunkered on the front nine. |
 |
#9 HOLE 354 Yards Par 4 An elevated tee provides a good view of the 75-yard-long bunker on the right and the tree-lined wetlands on the left. A definite birdie hole. |
 |
#10 HOLE 535 Yard Par 5 Usually downwind, another possible eagle awaits here. A bit of a double dogleg, the river borders the right side with a huge greenside bunker on the left. |
 |
#11 HOLE 451 Yards Par 4 The longest par 4 on the back, the fairway bunker on the left requires care from the tee. The pond and greenside bunker on the left complicate the approach. |
 |
#12 HOLE 536 Yards Par 5 A narrow landing area between the lake on the left and the fairway bunker on the right and the elevated green makes reaching this one in two pretty tough. |
 |
#13 HOLE 189 Yards Par 3 Limestone bluffs provide the backdrop for this tee shot across the water to a large but very shallow green. |
 |
#14 HOLE 340 Yards Par 4 This short par-4 dogleg right requires an accurate tee shot setting up a short-iron to an elevated green. It's a birdie chance with a precise drive. |
 |
#15 HOLE 399 Yards Par 4 This par-4 is bordered by water on the right and mounds on the left. A precise tee shot is a must if you want to reach the green in regulation. |
 |
#16 HOLE 322 Yards Par 4 A driveable par 4 for a gambler and another birdie opportunity for most, provided the many bunkers can be avoided. |
 |
#17 HOLE 210 Yard Par 3 An undulating green and a menacing bunker can make this hole difficult if the tee shot is not accurate. |
 |
#18 HOLE 452 Yards Par 4 Water all the way on the right, the cluster of bunkers on the left, and the elevated green make this a great finishing hole. |
