Great value

The greens were excellent. The course drains very well. Courses in this area are built on sand and always a good choice after heavy rains. Some construction in progress but will not effect any play.

Slow play

I always enjoy this course conditions and layout. Every time I play here it is stacked up and I end up waiting every hole. They need to space players out more..

Great Course

Very nice course. They had 2 inches of rain the day before so with cart path only the pace of play was pretty slow. Also because of the rain the course played long. But this is a great course and good value. We will play again.

We had a threesome and iat the first green, an 80 year old woman pulled up and asked if she could join us. Well, she was obnoxious ad ruined an otherwise great day.

Course in great shape, enjoyable in spite of cold wind!

We enjoyed the course but the round took 5 hours. Group in front was slow, slow! Never saw a ranger. Still like the course and conditions were excellent both fairways and greens. Greens very challenging. Will return and hope round is faster.

A Pleasure to Play Here

This was the third time I've played Legacy and I intend to play it often while we're in Pinehurst and I'd freely recommend it to anyone. The white tees were very fair in distance and fairway width. The blue tees really test you, especially on the challenging par 3's. The staff are very friendly. The only thing that might surprise you is the quickness of the greens. They don't look thin or particularly fast. They easily hold a high approach shot - many of mine rolled only a couple of inches, but they putt very fast and true.

Lovely greens

I brought my Scottish friends to visit and they quite enjoyed the course. Their home courses are in St. Andrews so that compliment goes a long way. They were also impressed by the multiple tee box options.

Legacy Links -Great value and overall good shape

Legacy is a great value. Course was in excellent shape except for tee boxes on 3 holes that they are replacing. Other than those tee box issue, the course would be 5 stars. Staff extremely helpful and pace of play was great.
