Fantastic Day
Great course and fantastic weather. The course is in great condition. Really nice layout. The par 3's are my favorite holes. Challenging, but very reasonable if you keep the ball in play.
Just missed
Read the reviews - almost a perfect day - however starter on first tee said they had computer mix up, and had multiple groups at same tee time. Didn't believe that and as a expected, they stuffed the course and the pace was painfully slow. No ranger out to fix it either. Course is fantastic but let's get our act together Legacy!
Worth playing
Overall, it’s a solid golf course. Green speeds are nice and the layout is challenging. Over seeded fairways will make this course enjoyable this winter. Would recommend to all levels of players.
One of my favorites
Legacy is always in great shape & the layout is fantastic. As a local golfer here in Pinehurst & somebody that belongs to another Private club in the area- I still never hesitate bring out of towners over for a round when they visit. I also jump at the chance whenever my local pals get a game together at the Leg'!!! My favorite collection of par 3's in the state- always a great day out at Legacy. Kudos on new bar/grill also!!! JP
Pros: Staff friendliness was really good- they were out of their way to keep it organized. Greens were in GREAT shape. Fairways were okay.
Cons: Pace of play was HORRIBLE!! Ranger came around #8 and stated he knew what group was holding us up, but nothing changed. We waited for EVERY single shot after #8. Tee boxes could use a little love and after hole #6, there were no tee markers beyond the blues.
Legacy Golf Round 3
Great day. Arrived early to enjoy driving range and putting prior to round. Staff welcomed as though I had played there more than 3 times. Great visual course set among houses and woods. Layout was challenging for me however broad fairways and challenging water placement made for an enjoyable day. Greens were fast and fair. Fairways presented opportunities to hit away - but do take caution as they seemed to narrow just where my ball was falling to the ground. Challenging holes, especially 9, 10, 11, 17 and 18. My favorite course to date in NC
Legacy Golf round 2
Great day for golf, staring on the driving range, then on to the course. Even the threat of rain could not dampen the day. Pace was great until the 6th hole when it slowed, however the setting and scoring opportunities made for a pleasant day. Course is in great shape. Enjoy.
2 or 22
One of my favorite courses. The layout is terrific The greens were quick but true. I only downgraded amenities because this the age of COVID-19 and that’s not their fault. Highly recommend this course
Great. course
Beautiful course. Very challenging, but not unfair. Some fairly narrow fairways.
Slow Play Day
Course was in good condition,, especially the greens. Good layout that will make you use all your clubs. Had a couple of foursomes in front of us that really took their time, so we were over 4 hrs 45 minutes. Still an enjoyable day.
Okay, but a little overpriced
Place is a bit overpriced for what it has to offer. Most places in this price range offer range balls before you play.
Course was okay. I was holding a bit of water which is fair because it had stormed the few days prior. Besides the water, nothing truly special about the layout.
Legacy Golf Links Round 1
Excellent and challenging course for me. Water on and along several holes. Great views with undulations and dog legs that challenge your distance control. Greens are in great shape as are fairways. Several signature holes over water and along, including #12 and 18. Fairways slope and necessitate shot shapes that take advantage and not penalize. Can not wait to play again.
Legacy Round 1
Excellent course in great shape. Water galore and challenging. Well laid out to challenge and reward golfers. Payed from the Blues. Blacks look too challenging for my length while whites significantly different in few fairways. Greens in perfect shape. Fairways perfect. Your challenge is to pay to the center as edges can result in lost opportunities. Great views. Personnel are engaging and helpful. Amenities are fine, given Covid restrictions but experience will be hightened once these are lifted.
