Gaylord Springs Golf Links

Gaylord Springs Golf Links opened in 1991 as a Scottish links-style layout carved from the banks of the Cumberland River, originally known as Springhouse Links at Gaylord Opryland. It was designed by Larry Nelson, the U.S. Open and two-time PGA Championship winner. The par-72 course is framed by dramatic limestone bluffs and federally protected wetlands, with nearly every hole running north to south so players can read the prevailing wind across the exposed terrain. The club takes its name from a century-old springhouse that still stands near the signature fourth hole. A full-service resort course adjacent to the Opryland complex, it has drawn repeated recognition, including nods among the region's best public courses. Its combination of river setting, open links character, and championship pedigree makes it a Nashville staple.
