Golf in Lebanon

Lebanon is the seat of Wilson County, a mid-sized Middle Tennessee city thirty miles east of Nashville along Interstate 40. The city has grown substantially in the Nashville orbit without losing the county-seat character that distinguishes it from purely suburban communities — the courthouse square, the annual Tennessee Walking Horse Show, and the Cumberland University campus all contribute to an identity that is more than a bedroom community. Wilson County's terrain is the limestone hills of the Cumberland Plateau's western flank, where the Cedars of Lebanon State Forest — one of the largest red cedar forests in the United States — occupies thousands of acres of the distinctive cedar glade landscape. Golf in Lebanon serves a regional population that spans the older county community and the newer Nashville commuter arrivals that have come with the county's rapid growth.
