The Legacy
About
The Legacy Golf Course is one of Robertson County's must-play courses. Opened in 1996, it is not as old as some other courses in the area but the designer, Raymond Floyd, took advantage of the existing mature woodlands spread throughout the lush, rolling hills. At 6,755 yards, the course is seemingly short but it is narrow, and be prepared to face troublesome hazards almost everywhere. It is notorious for making balls from even the most slightly errant shots disappear. It is a tough but fair challenge. The golf course starts with a tricky par 5 with a bunker on the right followed by a par 4 that requires a 200-yard carry or you'll surely be faced with trouble. The back nine at Legacy G.C. is slightly less difficult but there are still plenty of hazards as well as several blind shots.

Coming Along
We all know most public courses in the area had bad die-offs this past winter. Legacy was affected pretty badly. However, the greens are in fantastic shape. Many of the fairways have bare spots, and hopefully now that the temperatures are staying higher that will be better soon. I shot a comfortable 75 despite them. Ill take nice greens and bad fairways any day of the week. I only had to move my ball over to some grass maybe once or twice. It was fine, and I’ll keep playing Legacy until other courses get their greens back. Speaking of the greens, some of those pin placements are not fooling around. Tucked, on slopes, you name it. Tough spots. But fun. Great day.
PS: Get some new carts and new range balls, because YIKES.

Nice challenging golf course!
Played here many times last year and the mosquitoes were awful. This year I can say that they have cleaned up the stagnant water areas and eliminated this issue.
The golf course plays nice and challenging with pretty good looking fairways and greens. The bunkers are also better than you’ll find at most other public courses. Overall, worth playing here.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. Thank you for the 4 stars! We aim for a 5-star experience, so we always welcome feedback for improvement. Thank you for playing The Legacy.
We are so pleased that you enjoyed your time at The Legacy. We look forward to seeing you on the course soon for another 5-star experience!
Worst shape I have ever seen a course in, giant areas of dirt without grass in the fairways
Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve and are working diligently to improve the course. Thank you for playing and we hope to see you again soon.
Great round
The course isn’t up to standards but they are putting the work in on the fairways and tee boxes. The greens here are always tough but they were putting so true. My buddy holed a 70 foot putt. Legacy is one my favorite courses around Nashville.
Thank you for visiting us at The Legacy. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Fun course!
My husband and I played this course, very windy the day we played but definitely a fun course! Some holes are a little to close to houses but overall we enjoyed our day.
So much potential
I heard a lot of pluses and minuses about this course and that pretty much confirms it..
The layout is challenging and fun..
There were just so many areas where the grass (if any) was still dormant or bare..
Maybe punch the fairways and fertilize to get this place going?
Greens are very challenging, lots of undulations..
Started out really backed up, but pace of play wasn't too bad when it spread out..
Very nice staff..
Want to give it another try when the course conditions are better
Thanks so much for your review. We appreciate your feedback, and we hope to see you again soon at The Legacy.
Championship Sunday?
This course has everything you’d look for in a mid-tier cost course. The staff is friendly and helpful, the layout of the course goes from neighborhoods to woods, and it is fun to play.
However, the pin placement on this particular Tuesday was insane. You’d have thought it was championship Sunday. Every par 3 pin placed behind a bunker with relatively no landing area to stay safe. Sure, you want a course to be challenging, but goodness gracious, superintendent.

First Time Play
I loved this course. Easy to book a Tee time in advance — even same day a couple hours before I wanted to play .Courteous rep that I spoke with to create my profile and when I got to the course the clubhouse staff greeted me and welcomed me. I was a single golfer that the pro staff encouraged me to the tee box. They sugggested because I was a single there was another single who was headed to the 10th tee and encouraged me to atempt to pair up. When I got to 10 the single was already off, but a threesome was there and when asked if I could join them, they said sure. Due to my time commitments and the very busy day, I only got to play 7 holes, but will be back. Highly recommend !
Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing The Legacy.
Raymond Floyd
Always great course challenge and consistent conditions. We played 18 holes as foursome and loved pace of play. The drive is long from Nashville but worth the experience. We will be back soon.
Thanks so much for your review. We're so glad you enjoyed your round at The Legacy. That's what we like to hear! We hope to see you again soon!
Fun Course
Played in late April, so the grass is just coming in. Still a little like winter conditions. High winds and dry conditions, and the course had not done a great job keeping up with the watering needs. But, in mid May this course will be in nice shape.
Pace was good, but course was not packed.
Club house not much, but didn't care about that.
A good course to play. I will be back
Thanks so much for your review. We appreciate your feedback, and we hope to see you again soon at The Legacy.
Thank you for the awesome rating! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another great experience, and thanks for choosing The Legacy.
Fix your GPS carts and get a Marshall.
First time playing here so maybe I'm missing something. But if you have GPS carts and can see where everyone is at, why are three groups backed up for one very slow foursome? And you GPS stops the cart in the middle of the fairway with absolutely no warning you are approaching an out of bounds area forcing a pain in the butt backing up of the cart. Just not for me.
Early season
The course is a bit rough. Bermuda is still pretty dormant. The greens were on the slow side. Nice layout. A lot of elevation changes and a few holes where the greens are perched high about the fairway/tee. Holes 10 and 11 are very difficult with fairways that are almost hard pan, like most of them. We played with a great guy, Jack, who is a member and that was helpful. We paid a $39 “hot deal” rate but I wouldn’t pay more until the course matures in a month or two.
Thank you so much for leaving us with your feedback. We value our customer experience, so your review is important to us. We will make note and we hope to see you back!
