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.

The greens are great and they are working on the bunkers. Work in progress but seeing work on the course being done. Also work on clubhouse so money is being spent on repairs. Can't wait to see the final results.
course was in great shape for early spring
Course was in great condition for early spring in tn. They were working on certain sections and keeping the golf course in good playing condition. The greens were very smooth and fast.Over all the day was great for playing golf.The staff in the pro shop and snack bar were very nice and thanking us for coming there to play.
Excellent Experience
We had a great time at this course. Even though some of the bunkers were under repair, the course still delivered with good fairway conditions, excellent greens and outstanding pace of play. The staff on ground provided great service with warm friendliness. Looking forward to play the course again late Spring/early Summer as I'm sure the course will be in prime time condition. Oh and what a great price!

Excellent course
Will be a top notch venue in season,
nice course
I hadn't played here for over a year, and was concerned about the condition. It was in pretty good shape. They are rebuilding some bunkers, but other than that I was pleased with the course conditions
fast greens
the course was in excellent shape for this time of the year greens was quick only bad thing was a mole messed up number 12 green hope they caught him
Fun Track
I will drive almost an hour from my home to play this course because it's so worth it. The course layout is challenging but fair and with often windy conditions it requires accurate shotmaking to the greens. The fairways are generous but the greens are fairly large and undulated. This requires you to hit the right section of the green or a three putt is likely (at least for me). Only flaw is that some of the bunkers are under repair. You absolutely cannot beat the price for the quality of golf.
Great Layout
Played when the Grass was dormant, but could tell this is a great drag. Little slow throughout the day, but nothing major. Awesome layout and greens in pretty good shape.
Hidden gem
Legacy is a very tough course hidden in Springfield. Course where accuracy off the tee is a must or you'll be in trouble all day. Guy at front desk was very friendly, greens rolled well and fast. Working on a few bunkers right now but course is in prime shape.
Slowest round of the year
Great weather. The course is in very good condition overall. Fairways in good condition. The greens run fast and true. The course is challenging. Started our round at 10am, turned in 2:30. Was a very slow front 9, waited every shot. There were 3 groups backed up on a par 3 at one point. Slowed down even more on the back 9. Took us longer than 2:45 to play the back side. The group in front of us had a 2+ hole gap in front of them. There was never any course staff on the course monitoring play. Looking at past reviews, this is pretty much the standard. The course has read and commented on past reviews referencing slow play. They know slow play is an issue, I guess they don't care. They do nothing whatsoever to monitor play. It's a shame, the course is a challenge and good value overall. I don't think I'll be back though. If you decide to play, make sure you have plenty of time.
Great Layout
A great layout and the greens ran well. A few spots that need tended to but a really good golf course.
No so good
We played with a very nice gentleman, I was very disappointed with conditions of course. We drove 978 miles in one day to make sure we could play but was disappointed so the hard drive was not worth it
Nice value
Greens fast with significant undulations. Nice layout and value on hot deal on golf now.
Nice for early fall
Greens and fairways in good shape, several soggy spots from xs watering. Rough was high and mosquitos were plentiful.

awsome course but delayed play
I palyed golf with my wife, the course was kind of challenge to me, but it made me excited a lot and helped forcus on playing. but there was one thing that made me disappointed there. The pace of play was delayed enough to make me distracted. The front team played very slow so that it took 1 hour longer than the usual paly time. and No one had adjusted the pace of play.
ksjong121,

Pace of play was a serious problem
Overall layout was okay but pace of play was a serious problem. We spent two hours playing the front nine. Not bad but it took two hours to play the next five holes! We quit after the 15th because it was stacked up ! They need a ranger to improve pace of play
u000005280138,
We appreciate your feedback. We understand pace of play is key to your game, and are sorry to learn you left early because of it. We hope you give us another shot soon, so we may exceed your expectations for next time!
Best regards,

Solid Course
This is a solid course, with a good layout that rewards good shots and punished being out of position. The greens could use a little work, but other than that, I would highly recommend this course.
