"Played last week and course was great. Greens were fantastic. Still some work to do on the tee boxes but the renovations are nearly complete. Will be back soon."

"I would not pay $85 to play this course again. The greens were halfway burned and the tee boxes are all sand. I thoroughly enjoyed being able to go in the bar and get a margarita and some food during it, but this was the highlight of the course. The front desk guy Carson and the bartender were very accommodating but the manager came out of his office and made us feel like he was going to allow us to play and we were lucky, not a very nice guy. For the price increases and how many people were out mowing they could at least spray the greens with some water. Also saw the manager getting into a guy for his attire who got out of his work truck and was yet to change. For all the nice courses in the area that are no more than $50 I see no reason it was so expensive."

"I’ve been golfing at this course over the last 6 years and while it’s never been anything to write home about, it’s always been a decent course with decent pricing ($50 a round). This summer the course closed for some “renovations” of the greens and tee boxes. When I went to book a tee time and saw the price had been upped to $80 a round I thought I’d give it a shot to see the new improvements. As you can see from my photos, this course has only gotten worse since the “renovations”. DO NOT spend your hard earned money here. There are plenty of courses in Nashville that are half the cost and better quality. Sad to see this course go downhill and punish their regulars for it."

"***LIVE MUSIC & Oma’s favorite spot*** (This review is on the Sand Trap at 12 Stones) I don’t know why I’m tormented, sometimes, with Google’s single rating system of one to five stars which blankets an entire experience. I wish Google would create a rating system so a reviewer could rate an establishment in four different categories. Maybe one day Google will hear my cry, but in the interim, I will break down what I think are the FOUR most important rating categories… FOOD/ DRINKS, AMBIANCE, SERVICE, & BATHROOM GAME. FOOD/ DRINKS: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ For what it is, the Sand Trap’s food is serviceable. The good news is that they have HEALTHY OPTIONS (if you are into that), or shall I say, options you can make healthier. But, let’s face it, at the end of the day, it’s glorified bar food. It is not terrible, but I would never drive over here because I am craving something delicious on their menu. Healthy options include filet mignon, smothered grilled chicken (but do not get it smothered), grilled salmon and grilled shrimp. I ordered the smothered chicken without the smothered part. So basically, just grilled chicken breast, and I got a side of broccoli. Oh, and they have an all you can eat salad bar, or at least I believe it is all you can eat. ***Verification pending*** The salad bar is okay. You can fill up quite a bit after a few passes through the line. The salad bar boasts chopped hard-boiled eggs, cubed ham, and cubed turkey, along with all the other salad bar fixings. Watered down and sloppily presented, the cocktails were sub-par, unfortunately. In their defense, they were understaffed. ***Just stick to beer or wine here*** AMBIANCE: ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️ Perhaps I don’t know the right places to look but living so close to Nashville I expected there to be a lot more restaurants with live music. Unfortunately, I only know of a handful, and to my surprise the Sand Trap at 12 Stones is one of them. WE GO HERE SPECIFICALLY FOR LIVE MUSIC, not because the musicians are extremely talented (I mean they ARE good), but because it is the only place locally that plays live music on Friday and Saturday evenings that doesn’t require us to wait an hour or more to get in. (Awedaddys Bar & Grill does live music too, but I do not enjoy the crowdedness and long wait times). Sand Trap is Oma's favorite spot, and Oma loves her live music! (Oma is my very German, 87-year-old mother-in-law who can out-drink and likely out-party anyone I know). It is a fun environment, but you will not find any white tablecloths there. Very casual attire, in fact most patrons come straight from the golf course, so you will see lots of hats, polo shirts and shorts. They also have an outdoor area you can reserve/rent out for private parties/events. SERVICE: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Service was good overall. Our server was great, but as I mentioned previously, with them being understaffed and computers down it was a little hectic. Despite those things, I have no real complaints here. Our server busted her butt and was truly kind. BATHROOM GAME: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ If our eyes are the windows to our soul, then bathrooms are the windows to a restaurant's kitchen… I just made that up, and it probably made no sense, but I promise I’ve been told something similar before by a very wise man. I heard that an effective way to verify how clean a restaurant's kitchen is, you must look no further than the bathroom. If the bathroom is clean and well cared for, the theory is that the kitchen and food preparation area will be the same, and vice versa. I am not sure the reasoning behind the theory, but as a previous home inspector, I can attest to the sentiment! The bathroom was not terrible, but it needed some TLC! The soap dispenser was not working, and I almost slipped on the wet floor, but they made up for it by having a bowl of peppermint Starlights Hard candy at the host stand. In summary, we had a wonderful time celebrating Oma at the Sand Trap! Oma is moving back to Germany, so this was our bon voyage dinner for her. Overall, despite the less than 5-Star review, we will be back again soon!"
