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.

A Gem
Is this Augusta or Pebble? No of course not. And you’ll see prettier courses at places like Hermitage, Fairfield Glade, Bear Trace, etc. But you won’t find a better combination of good course condition, a track with challenges but ease of play for amateurs, friendly staff, and affordability quite like you will find at The Legacy. I absolutely love this place. If you like a good round of golf at a good course for a fair price, come to Springfield, TN and check out this Ray Floyd design. You won’t be disappointed.
Thanks to the team at the Legacy for a great course near home!
Hidden gem
This course is worth the drive from Nashville in my opinion. I got a twilight tee time Sunday evening by myself the day before, the starter paired me with a father and son duo who were about my skill level and helped me around the course. This course rewards good shots and penalizes bad ones, holes are rarely side by side so there's no hitting in a different fairway and still playing your hole. I like the course setup with several go for it or layup decisions and the par 3's are very cool looking shots with either elevated tees or elevated greens. For the twilight price of less than $40, it's the best value I've ever encountered and the greens held and ran true. 5 stars

Hi u000004876922. 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.
Not bad.
6 Handicap. Greens were slow but smooth. Fairways and tee boxes still needed to green up some and another mowing. A few tee boxes (back tees) need to be leveled. I would expect the conditions to only get better as we move into the summer. It was very playable and is always a challenging layout. Me and a buddy played the round in 4 hours with a 12:30 tee time. The driving range was rough.
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.

Who’s writing fake reviews for this course?!
This couldn’t be more falsely advertised. They should spend less time worrying about writing fake reviews and more time on the course conditions.
Cannot be #2 Public course in Tennessee
I drove 13 hrs to play in Nashville for the weekend, played Hermitage twice and Gaylord springs, Gaylord springs is under construction and only 16 holes were open and still was better.
We left after 9 holes we were so disappointed and luckily got a tee time at Hermitage. If you’re in Nashville for the weekend don’t waste your time to come all the way out here, it’s ABSOLUTELY NOT WORTH IT.

Great course but would be better better in spring/summer
The layout of the course is pretty nice. While it doesn’t speak to me quite as much as some other courses it’s definitely one I’d be interested in playing again. Probably in the summer when the grass is green. This was the first time I’ve played on Dormant Bermuda grass and while it plays mostly the same you can kind of feel the difference. I’d probably rate The Legacy a half star higher in optimal conditions, as the layout is definitely very good. Nice set of par 3s for sure.
Thank you for taking the time to review us Kevin91581. Your feedback is valuable, and we look forward to delivering you excellent service again soon. The Legacy thanks you!
Worth the trip
Drove 4 hours to play, and was well worth it. We cant wait to come back. Great layout, challenging and good conditions even in end of winter. I imagine summer this will be a very beautiful course to play. Greens were awesome.
