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.

Fun course

First time playing this course and it was fun. Course seemed to be in decent shape for the summer rounds. Greens were a little bumpy. Looong drive but it was worth it.

Interesting but tough

The course was in good condition, but if you haven’t played it before and aren’t lucky enough to be with someone who knows the course, it can be hard. Good news is that there are several options listed on the card to make things friendlier. Mixing the tees - some longer, some shorter.

The course is challenging and left me wanting to go back and play it again - and do better. You really have to manage your game to score, but the opportunities are there.

Staff is luke warm.

Played in 4.5 + hours even though we saw a marshall every other hole, but apparently the morning guy allowed things to get off to a slooow start which carried on throughout the day.

Smoking deal

got there early & joined T who was also a Golf Now player. They let us t off early as a twosome as it was not busy. The course was in great shape & the groups in front of us were totally cool & let us play through. We completed the round in 3 hours. Great test of golf playing the copper/ silver combo.

2nd time playing and once again a great experience. Only complaint is they could have a course map handout for those of use that havent played that much or not at all. There are some tricky tee shots that you better know where to go. Conditions and pace of play are great! I’ll be back as this is a gem in North Scottsdale.

Good condition

Maintenance staff have done a lot of work in cleaning up the shrubbery around the course giving it a cleaner look.

Conditioning is good as is the green speed.

Staff are always very efficient and friendly here.
