Franklin County Country Club: Franklin County

Went to my class reunion here. It was pretty awesome.

Nice facility, showing it's age in decor but clean and well kept. I have only been for special events, but always a good time. Plenty of parking and wheelchair accessible. I have not played the course, but it looks to be nicely maintained.

Great venue for your special event. We had our 50th class reunion and everything was perfect. A lot of hard work was put into it by several class members and the Country Club staff did a great job too.

My wife and I own a sprinter van that we use to travel the country and play golf as often as we can. I'm semi-retired and work in the industry myself and usually we don't have any problems. We had played Tims Ford SP one afternoon, then headed to Winchester with hopes to play this course the next morning. They don't have a website so it's not easy figuring out if they have open play and how to get a tee time. Yes, I should have called ahead but we are normally spontaneous. When we arrived here it appeared to us everyone was gone so we just parked to set up for the night. Evidently this wasn't the case since someone called the police on us. There was NO SIGNAGE about private property or overnight parking, etc. This is NOT a gated area obviously. We love golf courses as they're safe and quiet, and naturally have tons of open parking not being used at night. We have stayed overnight at some prestigious courses and never encountered any issues, until here of all places. Not sure why they chose to call the cops instead of just coming to speak to us. They could easily see we had Davidson County tags which one would assume we were visiting from the Nash area. As you can see from the pic, the van is a nice rig. We paid over 6 figures new and it's not like we were driving a 1975 Winnebago. The thought they would be concerned over us in that van is crazy, but to waste local resources by sending a cop that should be patrolling the city is wild. The cop was very nice and even he seemed to think it was silly. We left and didn't see a reason to go back so we'll just stick with Tims Ford in the future.

Very friendly people. Golf course looks better every time I get to play. Thanks to Wanda Sanders for getting me back into the game of golf. She is a terrific teacher. To bad I don't follow instructions better though.
