The Club at Fairvue Plantation

Fairvue Plantation is an 18-hole private course located in Gallatin, Tennessee, approximately thirty miles northeast of Nashville. Designed by Bill Bergin and opened in the early 2000s, the course occupies land that was once part of a historic antebellum plantation, lending the property a sense of place rooted in Middle Tennessee's agricultural past. The routing takes advantage of the gently rolling terrain characteristic of the region, with fairways that move through mature hardwoods and open meadows. Bergin's design emphasizes strategic variety rather than overwhelming length, with holes that reward thoughtful course management and accurate approach play. The property features natural elevation changes that provide visual interest and create opportunities for both uphill and downhill shots. Water comes into play on several holes, typically in the form of creeks and ponds that integrate naturally into the landscape. The greens are moderately contoured, requiring careful attention to pin placement and putting angles. The Club at Fairvue Plantation serves as a private membership facility with amenities that extend beyond golf, including equestrian facilities that reflect the property's plantation heritage. The club's setting in Sumner County places it within a growing corridor of residential and recreational development north of Nashville, while maintaining a relatively secluded atmosphere. The course provides members with a traditional country club experience in a region that has seen considerable growth in recent decades.
