Golf at hermitage will certainly be a unique experience. The course is shared between golfers and free roaming sheep that graze in the high grass and lay in the shade. Shockingly I did not run into any sheep shit and the round was incredibly pleasant.

Hermitage is one of the best public golf courses you can get in Tennessee. Just 30 minutes outside of national sits this hidden gem. Very reasonable price for the quality of the course.

True links layout with a lot of water around. Greens were in good shape but rest of the course was quite dry. Steep price tag but cool track.

Oak Hills is a fun place to hit shots when learning the game, but not a place for any serious golfer to pay a greens fee.
