When the architect Rees Jones created the golf course at the Legend Trail Golf Club, he created a golf course that brings out the Old West-style air of Scottsdale and a fun and testing golf course with greens made of bent grass. It's a premium golf course smack dab in the Sonora Desert.

The golf course at the Legend Trail Golf Club features broad fairways, diminutive bunkering and tees placed on islands, and has been called one of the Top 100 golf courses by Golf Magazine. The magazine also gives Legend Trail 4.5 stars out of five among its

Best Places to Play, and has one of the Top 100 Woman-Friendly Fairways, according to Golf For Women magazine. Panoramas include local sites like Pinnacle Peak, and a round at Legend Trail Golf Club gives all levels of golfer several different shot-making options.

Golf a late-afternoon round on Friday or Saturday, and head back to the Trail's End Grill from 4 to 6 p.m. for specials on drinks and appetizers.

Closed driving range & 5 temp tee boxes

Went to course an hour and a half before my tee time to hit balls at the range. I was informed it was it in the pro shop at check-in that it was closed for renovations.

Then to my chagrin, out on the course there were 5 holes with their tee boxes closed and severely shortened holes based on where the temp tee boxes were set up. There was a par 4 that was shorted to 68 yards?!👹👹👹

No one at check-in mentioned the 5 temp hole set-ups, just the closed range:(

Didn’t know.

Course was great, however 2 tees were closed and 8 was a 55 yard par 3 (vs 175) and 9 was a 227 yard hole versus a 380, may not have played there if I had known that .

Rude Staff

Very Rude Starter

If Golf Courses don’t want to take Golf Now, don’t !! But if you do, don’t make patrons that use it less important and not welcome.

Stater taking away from a nice course, bad representation for the course..

Course not a legend

This course was so disappointing. We played there several years ago and the course was nice. Now the condition of the course is horrible, the greens are unputtable. The carts are gas operated and smelled of gasoline the entire round. We were surprised the cart made it through the round. Don't have much positive to say about this course and would not recommend it. They charge way too much

Terrible layout on many holes

Course has too many blind shots, several holes are unfair when you look at the distance and the and the ability to play a shot into the green, many tee shots even from shorter distances may not carry the waste areas.
