About this course

Percy Warner Golf Course is a nine-hole public course set in the wooded hills of Percy Warner Park in Nashville, Tennessee, near the Belle Meade entrance. It opened in 1937 as the city's second public golf course and has long served as an entry point for new golfers in the area. The layout plays to a par of 34 across about 2,600 yards, with tree-lined fairways and small, undulating greens that keep short shots demanding despite the modest length. The course underwent a 20-month restoration funded largely by private donations, reopening to public play in June 2024 with new greens, irrigation, and clubhouse updates carried out under architect Bruce Hepner. It remains city-owned and operated as an affordable, walkable public facility.
