I have had the pleasure of photographing many weddings at Westhaven Golf Club and the staff are always wonderful, the food is great and there are so many picturesque locations for photographs at any time of year. I am looking forward to photographing another wedding here soon!

Organized a dinner for 34 people at the Westhaven Golf Club in Franklin, TN. This was all done via email and phone as I had never visited this place before. A dinner guest was a member of the club that provided the opportunity to book the dinner. Chloe was the manager for events and she made the process run smoothly. The food presentation was excellent, as we had either Salmon or Steak. I failed to take pictures, since I was hosting. We also had a dessert bar with cheesecake, chocolate covered strawberries and brownies. Again everything was well prepared and the serving team was top notch. If I ever need to host a party again, I would definitely contact Chloe again.

Thank you WHGC for making my nieces 13th birthday a huge success. Job well done❤️

If you live in -or frequent - the Nashville area and enjoy the game of golf, you have a few private clubs to choose from. Among them is the Westhaven Golf Club, home to a magnificent Arthur Hills championship golf course. Westhaven provides the perfect place for golf enthusiasts of all levels to enjoy the game in a casual and friendly environment. Since opening in 2009, Westhaven has received national recognition for its design and attention to detail. GolfWeek and Golf Digest both named Westhaven to their "2010 Best New Courses" list. Before parting ways, Mark directed me to the practice area, a place I could have easily spent the day. In addition to a full-length driving range where you can hit every club in your bag, there’s a short game chipping area with multiple bunkers, a fairway bunker for long-range sand shot practice, and a large practice putting green. The practice facility is open year-round. In case your old clubs aren’t treating you the way you think they should (or vice versa) the golf shop has access to all of the top brands including Titleist, Callaway, TaylorMade, Miura, Mizuno, PXG, and more! They also have a great selection of high-quality logoed apparel and all of the golf accessories you need to have an enjoyable round. I learned from the Westhaven website that all of the holes of names. Number 3 Is named “Otter” and is a par 5 that plays 484 yards from the Blue tees. The landing area has a lone pot bunker that needs to be avoided at all costs. Should you hit a good drive, Otter is going to present you with a choice. There’s a creek that crosses the fairway about 100 yards in front of the green. There’s a little room to the right if you want to bail out, but then you’ll have to deal with two pot bunkers between you and the green. Should you decide to go for the green, beware of the lake to the left of the elevated green. I think I know why they call this hole Otter; if you pull your 2nd shot left, you “otter” drop another! Number 7 (Snapper) is a par 3 that plays 180 yards from the Blue tees. Most players will hit a mid to long iron or hybrid into a boomerang-shaped green that is guarded on the left by a pond. Should you need to bail out of the tee, there’s some room to the right of the green that will leave several pitch options for a chance at par. Number 11 is a risk/reward hole aptly named “Decision.” If you have the distance off the tee, you have to give it a go. This short par 4 is listed at 280 yards but because it’s downhill it’s considerably shorter. It takes about a 240-yard carry to get over the thin strip of wetlands at the bottom of the hill. The green sits a few feet above the fairway and there’s a pot bunker in front that sees its share of play. A few subtle undulations in the green can make a two-putt challenging. The safe play is to lay up short of the wetlands, hit your short pitch up to the green, and putt for birdie. Number 14 (Harpeth) is the most picturesque hole on the course. This dogleg left par 5 plays 533 yards from the Blue tees and borders the Harpeth River. Play your tee shot downhill towards the cluster of bunkers. More bunkers dot the landscape on your way to the green, however, the landing area for your layup shot is pretty open. Play your approach shot over a couple of pot bunkers to an elevated green that is long and very narrow. Par is a good score here. Hole Number 17 is named Eagle, however, at 531 yards from the Blue tees, there can’t be many of them! It sure is a beautiful hole and plays around a lake that guards the left side of the entire hole. Bunkers form the right side, forcing a tee shot towards the water. On your layup, there’s plenty of room to the right past the last bunker. Play towards the green on your second and you may find the large cross bunker. The green is small and undulated. A more appropriate name – for me at least – would be Watery Grave!

I’ve go to the golf club pool when I run late and don’t want to interrupt the water aerobics, it’s a nice option and I appreciate the availability!
